## About

Vasylivka is a town south of Zaporizhzhia, near the Konka River and the former Kakhovka Reservoir. The remains of the Popov estate are a prominent historical landmark.

## Notes

The reservoir landscape changed after the destruction of the Kakhovka dam in 2023; older descriptions of an intact reservoir shoreline are outdated.
