Vladimir ILL asked:


Going to Kiev 1 to 8 of may - vacations - would somebody tell me the must-see IN Kiev ( museums, churches, parks, nabierejni etc ) and around Kiev - max 100 kms ?
Some ukrainian, man or woman, wants to share cup of coffee ? ( I’m a honest married french 59yo man living in Paris - )

    I believe following places are interesting for visit:
    1) Kiev-Pechersk Lavra (Kiev Cave Monastery) - nice buildings and architecture, few interesting museums.
    2) St. Michael’s Golden-Domed Cathedral
    3) National architecture and life museum «Pirogovo» - you will find there traditional architecture. I love this open air museum.
    4) Andreevskiy spusk - a lot of souvenirs, beautiful street and buildings. But be careful - divide prices for two :) or better go there with someone ukrainian/russian speacker.
    5) Mariinsky park - beautiful park with amazing palace.
    6) Pechersky botanical garden - in the early May lilac is in blossom.
    7) If you are fan of industial - Chornobyl. Not far from Kyiv and very-very specific place. It’s rather safe now.

    Hope someone else will also give you an advise :)
    Also advise you to visit There you may see photos and short description of different museums and culture places. Maybe you will find something more to visit.

    Unfortunately in this time (1 to 8 of may) I’ll not be in Kyiv.
    Wish you nice trip.
