[edit] The main coach station and the crossroads
The photo on the left shows the main coach station of the village. This is the place where you arrive if you come to Vynohrad by public transport. The station is usually open from 5:30-6 am until approximately 4-5 pm, although opening times may vary by season of the year and personal circumstances of the station officer (e.g., the station may be temporarily closed at some point during the day if the station officer is taking a lunch or feeding her pigs/other domestic animals).
The station stands on the intersection of the two main roads crossing the village, the east-west one and the south-north one.
[edit] P'yatyhatky
The part of the village (so-called kutok) with the coach station at one corner and between the road towards Tynivka (photo on the left) and the road towards Ripky (photo on the right) was called P'yatyhatky back in 1950s. It is not clear whether this kutok is known by some distinct name now, but it is one of the most beautiful and remarkable parts of Vynohrad.
