Each time, getting into the Divnogorje, you seem to be completely in another world. It seems that the "civilization" in the form of a railway is very close, and the city a few kilometers, but no - here you do not feel it at all, everything is different here. And even on a rainy day, when rain is raining everywhere, Divnogorye has its own little anomalous zone with a clear sky overhead and bright sun.

Divnogorye Museum-Reserve
Under the name Divnogorye they hide immediately three entities: the farm itself, the museum-reserve and the surrounding area, which the tourists used to call the "Divas" . Such a name was fixed behind the Cretaceous remains, or chalky pillars, which here a hundred years ago there were a few dozen . Then, in during the construction of the railway and during the war, most of them were blown up . There were only cult buildings - the Church of the Sicilian Icon The Divine Mother of God, the temples of the Divnogorsky Holy Assumption Monastery and several other divas .
Divnogorye Museum-Reserve, which is both natural, architectural, and archaeological, has existed for more than 20 years.Few people will argue that the main attraction and main value of Divnogorje is its nature. As for the historical and architectural values, they also exist, and moreover what:
- Mayak Archeological Complex of the 9th-10th centuries, which includes Mayak Settlement with white-stone fortress and necropolis, as well as pottery workshops. At present, the excavation at the monument of the Saltovo-Mayatsky archaeological culture is conserved. But you can get acquainted with the life of people living in this territory in the archeological park located in the reserve
- Cave Cretaceous Church of the Sicilian Icon of Our Lady, a unique building of the XVII century, an architectural monument of federal significance.
- Cave Cretaceous Church of St. John the Baptist in the territory of Divnogorsky Monastery
Khutoryans, historically - natives of Ukraine, speak sometimes incomprehensible language - a mixture of Russian and Ukrainian, characteristic for the south-western and southern regions of the Voronezh region. In memory of the settlers in Divnogorie they even created an additional museum object - the Ukrainian courtyard with a bleached hut and a shed, which reflects the life of the residents of these places. Every year, Divnogorie participates in the Night of Museums, and the annual event "Night in Divnogorje" is also held here, during which its territory turns into a theatrical and musical platform where its performances are shown by the troupes of the Voronezh theaters.
- Count the steps leading from the beginning of the excursion route to the cave church and the top of the hill. Before going on a tour of the Divnogorsk expanses, you need to make a wish. If the number of steps counted up the way coincides with the counting result down the road, then, as the experienced tourists say, the wish will be fulfilled.
- Bypass the cave church along a narrow underground corridor with five turns. At this time, piercing music sounds, you hold a candle in your hand - an atmosphere is created that can not be expressed in words.
- Take a picture against the chalk of the Cretaceous remains and the Church of the Sicilian Icon of the Mother of God - Divnogorie's business card
- Hear the echo. Go up the steps (do not forget to count them!) To the top of the mountain and jump a little on the spot, you can hear the echo, since there are many voids in the Cretaceous mountain.
- Do the trick with the algae. On the chalk slopes in Divnogorye you can see small dry particles of brown color - algae. If you put several such particles on your palm, water them and hold them for a while, they will swell, open and turn green. This is evidence that thousands of years ago in the modern territory of Divnogorje was the ocean.
- Try the local tea from the collection of the Divnogorsk herbs - a very tasty and healthy drink.
- Plunge into the waters of the Pacific Pine, a river flowing into the Don in several kilometers downstream.
How to get to Divnogorie
The address of the museum-reserve: Voronezh region, Liski district, Divnogorie farm, administration phone: (47391) 5-92-01. The museum works not all year round, but only from May to October inclusive. On Mondays and Tuesdays in Divnogorye, there are no excursions, however you can walk on your own.
From Voronezh to Divnogorie in about two hours you can get there by train: first by an electric train going along the Voronezh-Liski line, then by line Liski-Ostrogozhsk or Liski-Alekseevka. If you want to visit the Divnogorsky Monastery, then you need to go on the island. "Divnogorskaya", the museum-reserve is at the next stop - o.p. "143 km."
By car in Divnogorie it is possible to get there like this: from Voronezh along the M4 highway, turn to Liski, then turn left before entering Liski, and a few kilometers straight on the ring. In the village of Kovalevo, you need to turn left and cross the railway tracks on the move (in the village of Puhovo, do not do this.)

Accommodation and meals
There is a small hotel in Divnogorje, which accepts guests all year round. It is also possible to rent an ordinary village house. But most tourists who come to these regions prefer to rest by "savages" - with tents, which can be counted several dozen along the banks of the Pacific Pine in the summer.
You can have a snack in Divnogorie in a local cafe that works from 10 o'clock till evening in the summer time. In the farm there are several shops where you can buy the necessary products. Photo Divnogorja (14)
