Vylkove
Vylkove (Ukrainian: Вилкове) is a town in Southern Ukraine.
Understand
Vylkove is also called the Venice of Ukraine, although Venice of the poor would be more appropriate since the channels in the town are barely comparable with Venice and in late summer are so dry that you cannot even pass them by canoe, not to mention by boat. Nevertheless, the town boasts a welcoming climate and the opportunity to explore the picturesque and impressive Danube delta by boat or canoe.
