Located in Stone Ford District The park is located on the border of Stone Ford District and Lenin District at the end of Pushkin Street.
Luhansk-Moscow railway line is the border between the districts.
So the park is located between this railway line and the local brewery in Kirov Street. |
| May Day Park disco grounds |
|  | Dancing Grounds The dancing grounds are frequented by the young residents of Stone Ford District.
My friend and I were having beer at a nearby beertent one day and people watching.
I was surprised to hear how the DJ addressed the dancing public. He greeted them as "Stone Ford residents" and just said,"Hi, Stone Ford!" |

Hi Vic-I saw that on AeroSvit's and UIA's websites you can buy the Dniproavia tickets Kiev-Luhansk on-line (they code-share it seems). About USD 100 one-way. When I come over I am thinking of doing that. Maybe something to add in your tip? | Yaqui Tue Jun 30, 2009 19:07 UTC
Howdy Victor! Like I said before you live in a fabulous city. I still cannot get over how many wonderful museums, fountains, monuments, statues, squares, and those buildings have so much charm. Thank you for your lovely tour! | staindesign Wed Jun 24, 2009 15:13 UTC
