Alexandria park is not situated in Egypt, as you might think but in Kiev region ... This park, as the park in Uman, has been founded thanks to the generosity of a man and the beauty of a woman. In 1781 there was a wedding of F.K. Branitsky and Alexandra Engelhardt in St. Petersburg.
Branicki’s lands were in the Kiev region, and there Polish aristocrat brought his young wife. He gave his wife a carte blanche for "landscaping".
The construction of the park was started at the end of 1780s. The author of the park planning was the famous French landscape designer Myuffo. Many plants for the park were imported from Europe. By the middle of the 19th century Alexandria park had been known as one of the most beautiful landscape parks of Ukraine. There the elements of romanticism were mixed with sentimentality.
The park nooks were decorated with some little architectural forms such as the Echo colonnade, Rotunda, Chinese Bridge, Romantic Ruins, the Column of Sorrow, Red House, Chinese Gazebo and so on. The spectacular light suspension bridge was erected over the deep ravine at the beginning of the valley. The bridge is known as "Devil's Bridge", Branitsky decorated The park was decorated by the Branickis with bronze and marble sculptures and vases that had been made by famous Russian and foreign masters. Some large boulders were arranged in the picturesque decorative way and some artificial earthen hills were made in the park too.
