fiogf49gjkf0d THE UKRAINE'S 603,700 SQ.KM.CONSISTS ALMOST ENTIRELY OF
LEVEL PLAINS AVERAGING 175 METERS ABOVE SEA LEVEL. THE
CARPATHIAN MOUNTAINS THAT LIE IN THE WEST & THE CRIMEANS
IN THE SOUTH, BETWEEN THE BLACK SEA AND THE SEA OF AZOV,
MAKE UP ONLY 5% OF THE TERRITORY. LOWLAND AREAS EXTEND
ALONG THE SHORES OF THE BLACK AND AZOV SEAS AND IN THE
CRIMEAN PENINSULA.
MOST OF THE MAJOR RIVERS SUCH AS THE DNEPR, DRAIN
SOUTHWARD THROUGH THE PLAINS INTO THE BLACK- AZOV SEA
BASIN. THERE ARE OVER 23,000 RIVERS AND STREAMS
IN THE UKRAINE BUT FEW LAKES. THE EXCEPTIONAL BEAUTY OF
THE SOUTHERN SHORE OF THE CRIMEA MAKES IT ONE OF THE
FINEST VACATION AREAS OF THE WORLD.
