Attractions of the village Korenevka 

The main and, perhaps, the only attraction of the village Korenevka is the famous hunting lodge. This house belonged to Prince Ivan Paskevich, who was a field marshal and a bright representative of his kind. The house itself is a monument of architecture of the second half of the XIX century. Initially, this house of white and red brick was used as a distillery, but in the early 60s of the XIX century Paskevich converted it into an amazing manor house. The territory of this house is surrounded by an insanely beautiful terrain with rich vegetation, the so-called park, with a very beautiful artificial lake. The visitors of this place do not have any doubts that the rest here at the count was very pleasant and the best of a number of places where he had visited again. 

Paskevich's hunting lodge has survived to the present day, which allows tourists to visit it as a building as close as possible to its original appearance. Often, when restoring architectural monuments, many details are lost or altered, which loses its original appearance. With a hunting house this did not happen, which attracts more tourists to it. 

None of the visitors who will be able to visit the edges of the village Korenevka, will not remain indifferent to these wonderful and picturesque places, as well as to a small part of the history, which is kept in this modest village.
