Reference: The State Dendrological Park "Olexandria" in Bila Tserkva is the largest landscape park in Ukraine, created at the end of the 18th century as a residential landscape park of the magnate Branitsky family. The park combines natural oak groves, a system of ponds and the Ros River with architectural pavilions, park sculpture and compositions in the style of European aristocratic estates of the era of classicism and romanticism. "Olexandria" has preserved a valuable complex of historical buildings (in particular, the "Rotunda", the "Luna" colonnade, the "Ruins", the "Chinese Bridge") and marble sculpture of the late 18th - first half of the 19th century.
