Waste of time to visit. The castle is run down and there's nothing inside, just prints of famous paintings. I don't know why we are charged an entrance fee because there is nothing to see. Some people commented about the great view around the castle. View, what view? Nothing spectecular as far as I could see, just the usual Ukraine countryside. By the way, the roads on the way there are really bad. Full of potholes. Be ready for a bumpy ride if you intend to visit.

Beautiful castle with breathing view. Well preserved but, unfortunately, seems like doesn't take proper care. Very good playground for taking photos in front of palace. Over the ally is amazing ancient church in roman catholic style.
