Babi Yar

The Babi Yar ravine is a sobering memorial to the people massacred during the Nazi occupation. It is estimated that – at this very place – more than 100.000 people lost their lives.

Do & See

Walking along Kyiv streets, one can witness many eras collide: Soviet architecture alongside orthodox cathedrals, and imperial palaces define the Ukrainian capital that has recently been shaken by quite a bit of political turmoil. Kyiv has now embraced modernity and has a lot to offer – its eclectic art and cultural scene can keep busy for days on end, so make sure to plan your route ahead.
