Highlights

Explore the mysteries of the old Kiev street Andrew’s descent over the last 3 centuries and enjoy the atmosphere taking you back in history, as if travelling by the time machine. Usually Andrew’s descent is associated solely with the name of Mikhail Bulgakov, the world-famous writer, who lived in the descent in the building No.13. Actually, since the end of nineteenth century many prominent figures of the Ukrainian science and culture lived in this densely populated street. Now St. Andrew’s Descent is one of main tourist attractions in the capital of Ukraine. It looks like museum in the open air.

About Kiev

Kiev, also spelt Kyiv, is a green city of golden-domed churches, tree-lined hills and broad boulevards on the high bank of the Dnieper.

Kiev rises on the hills of the Dnieper's west bank and is among the oldest cities in Eastern Europe. It was the centre of Kyivan Rus, the medieval state that adopted Christianity in 988. The eleventh-century Saint Sophia Cathedral, with its Byzantine mosaics and frescoes, and the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra, a monastery of golden domes and cave catacombs above the river, are together a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Top-ranked sights in Kiev: Independence Square (Maidan Nezalezhnosti), St. Sophia Cathedral, St. Michael's Golden-Domed Monastery.
