Odessa Ukraine Information

 Odessa Ukraine:

Odessa is a wonderful and friendly city. If you are traveling to Odessa Ukraine you will have a fantastic time.

Odessa Ukraine , sometimes spelled Odesa, is a major port city located in the South-West of Ukraine. In 2011 the population of Odessa Ukraine  was 1,029,000. In Russian Odessa is Одеса in Ukrainian and in Russian is Одесса.

Odessa is a beautiful historic city with tree lined cobblestone streets. It is also a Mecca for tourist. In the summer you will hardly be able to walk down the streets of Odessa for all of the tourists. On summer nights the center of Odessa literally turns into a carnival. If you like outside cafes than Odessa is the city for you.

If you see one site in Odessa I would suggest seeing the 142-metre-long Potemkin Stairs (constructed 1837–1841), made famous by Sergei Eisenstein in his movie The Battleship Potemkin (1925). 

The climate of Odessa is temperately continental, the average temperatures of January and July, the coldest and the warmest months of the year are accordingly: 19,2° F (-7,1°C) and 66,7° F (+18,7°С).

Local time in Odessa is 8 hours ahead of US East Coast time and 2 hours ahead of London.  So, if it is 12:00 noon US East coast it is 8:00 pm in Odessa Ukraine. When it is 12:00 noon in London it is 2:00 pm in Odessa Ukraine.
