Ukraine
This 18th-century house, built for nobility, is now home to a very interesting selection of Ukrainian and Russian art. The exhibits range from 400-year-old icons to 19th- and 20th-century modernists and present day photographers. On the top floor, there's a selection of Soviet era propaganda art.
Strangely, there's also an artificial grotto beneath the building, imitating a cave complete with waterfall. Personally, I'd stick to the art.
