Sorochinsky Fair
В топике Сорочинская ярмарка описывается не знаменитое произведение Николая Васильевича Гоголя, а современная ярмарка, проводимая в последнюю декаду августа каждого года и широко известная за пределами Полтавы. Сорочинская ярмарка собирает очень много участников и посетителей из ближайших и дальних деревень, а также из разных уголков Украины, России, Польши, Болгарии и многих других стран. Здесь же проводятся выставки произведений известных украинских художников и мастеров старинных народных промыслов.
