Cathedral of Aghia Sophia: Set in the aristocratic Upper City, the Byzantine Cathedral of Aghia Sophia (11th century) is a Baroque masterpiece with 13 golden domes, superb mosaics and amazing frescoes. It has served throughout its history as an important centre of knowledge and culture, housing the first school and library of the Rus of Kiev.
Address: Vladimirskaya 24, Kiev, www.sophiakievska.org
Kiev Caves Monastery: Extending over two wooded hillsides above the Dnieper, the mediaeval Caves Monastery (11th century) is an imposing complex of buildings, one of the Seven Wonders of Ukraine, and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. To descend into the catacombs, where the remains of many Ukrainian saints are preserved, is truly a unique experience.
Address: 21 Lavrska Str. Kiev 01015, www.lavra.ua
St. Andrew’s Descent: Known as the Montmartre of Kiev, this stone-paved descending road links the Upper City to the historic Jewish quarter of Podil. It is the most delightful walk Kiev has to offer, with a host of historic buildings along the route, including the Baroque Church of St. Andrew at the summit, the Castle of Richard the Lionheart, and the residence, now a museum, of the famous Russian writer Mihail Bulgakov. With its open-air galleries and itinerant street traders, the street has the retro atmosphere of a time gone by.
Independence Square: A huge square adorned with beautiful fountains, the historic Maydan or Independence Square embodies, at the heart of the city, the revolutionary spirit of the Ukrainian people. The demonstrations here were at the nucleus of the Orange Revolution of 2004, and it was also the venue for the pro-European protests of 2014. You can reach the square on foot along the impressive Kreshchatik Boulevard, home to some of the hippest addresses in contemporary Kiev.
Address: Maidan Nezalezhnosti, Khreschatyk Street, Kiev
St. Mikhayil’s Monastery: With its seven golden domes and characteristic blue colour, the Cathedral of Saint Mikhayil, patron saint of Kiev, is an impressive spectacle. The original church was built in the 12th century, and destroyed on the orders of Stalin in 1937. The present building was only constructed in 1999, but appears much older, as if it had already acquired the patina of time.
Address: Mikhailivska ploscha, Kiev, www.archangel.kiev.ua
Pinchuk Art Centre: This is Kiev’s leading contemporary art venue, the creation of billionaire tycoon Viktor Pinchuk and home to world-class exhibitions. Such prominent artists as Jeff Koons, Takashi Murakami, Damien Hirst, Ali Weiwei and Anthony Gormley have all presented their work here.
Address: 1/3-2, "А" Block, Velyka Vasylkivska / Baseyna str., Kiev, www.pinchukartcentre.org

If you come in May you will be able to admire the fantastic collection of lilacs (21 of the world’s 28 varieties are represented here). The view from the hill to the Dnieper and the Vydubits’kyi Church (11th century) is breath-taking.
Address: vul Tymiriazivska 1, Kiev www.nbg.kiev.ua
National Museum of the History of the Great Patriotic War: Built on a picturesque hill on the left bank of the Dnieper, this monumental building was designed in homage to the Ukrainian resistance during the Nazi occupation, and the thousands of victims of the war. From the roof of the museum (which has more than 300,000 exhibits) there rises the gigantic statue of the Motherland, while the extensive grounds feature an open-air sculpture exhibition and tanks.
Address: 24 Lavrskaya st,, Kiev, www.warmuseum.kiev.ua

Address: Khoryv Lane 1, 04071 Kiev, www.chornobylmuseum.kiev.ua
Golden Gate (Zoloti Vorota): This was the main gate to the ancient city of Kiev, constructed at the time of the Rus dominance of Kiev (11th century) and destroyed in 1240 by Mongol raiders. In 1982 historians and architects worked together to design a replica of the ancient gate, on the site of the remains of the original. The resulting structure is so faithful to the original that it is now one of the most important archaeological attractions of the city and enjoys UNESCO protection.
Address: Volodymyrs'ka 40, Kiev
Shoppers can find just about everything in Kiev, from superb local arts and craft products to leading international brands. The glamorous Khreschatyk Boulevard is home to designer boutiques selling all the most expensive brands. You will also find here the TsUM department store, known as Kiev’s answer to Harrods!
For souvenir hunters, your personal paradise is to be found in the bustling Andriyirsky Uzviz, where dozens of small traders lay out their stalls and hawk their wares – from local crafts and communist memorabilia to Russian dolls and fur hats. The Bessarabsky, a historic covered market, is well worth visiting, with its vibrant atmosphere and colourful food stalls. Apart from food, you will also find superb antiques here.
There are a number of impressive shopping malls in Kiev. For top-end international fashion and luxury brands, head for the Mandarin Plaza, the smart seven-storey temple of shopping, and the favourite destination of the wealthy citizens of Kiev. The city’s biggest mall is the Ocean Plaza, with more than 400 stores, restaurants and cafes, 8 cinemas and a huge aquarium to keep the kids entertained.
In recent years the Kiev gastronomic scene has been much improved, with the opening of new, modern restaurants serving Ukrainian cuisine and offering excellent value for money, alongside international restaurants, mainly Italian and Japanese (sushi).
If you decide to visit one of the local restaurants, you must without fail try the borsch (beetroot soup), varenyky (sweet, filled dumplings), holubtsi (cabbage leaves filled with tomato sauce), pelmeny (ravioli with meat stuffing) and, of course, the famous chicken Kiev.
Kiev is a city of clubs, rather than bars. Most bars are concentrated in the centre, especially on the lively, tree-lined Khreschatyk Boulevard. On weekends and holidays, when traffic is banned, crowds of happy people pour into the area and the vibrant city nightlife can be enjoyed in all its splendour. The lively club scene features everything from techno dance clubs to jazz clubs. Be aware that face control is operated at most of the clubs.
- Kiev Day: The biggest event in Kiev’s calendar occurs on the last weekend of May and sees the centre of the Ukrainian capital transformed into a giant party, featuring open-air concerts and plays, cycle races and fishing contests. The festival culminates with a magnificent firework display.
- Kraina Mriy (Country of Dreams): For one day every summer (19-20 June) the residents of Kiev – and many visitors too - put on their traditional Ukrainian costumes (vyshyvanka) and take part in the country’s most popular festival of ethnic music and traditional art. The festival’s main events are open-air concerts of world music, crafts workshops, Cossack games and tasting of local foods.
- Kiev Summer Music Festival: Symphony orchestras playing classical music, piano recitals and jazz ensembles can all be heard every weekend from late May to mid-July, in a series of open-air concerts held in the Central Park of Culture. This is one of the country’s biggest festivals of classical music, with audiences of thousands each year.
