Kiev (Kyiv) Sightseeing Walk Tour

The last phase of my almost a month 2nd Wave of Pandemic Adventure
October 16 to October 24, 2020


Pandemic traveling in Ukraine doesn't have that much difference compared before, only mask is needed to wear in public transportation, mask in city walking is not mandatory. My usual way of dealing a self-guided walk is just check the google map and look for the tourist spots within the city. I'm only interested on awesome architectures, sightseeing the way of local living across the streets and cheap food trip. My routine is upon arrival from bus or train station and I have only one day allocated on this place, I placed my backpack in locker area then walk-out.

Kyiv or Kiev is the capital and largest city of Ukraine. The city was founded on the banks of Dnipro River. The transliteration of the city's name from Ukrainian is "Kyiv", and this variation is now promoted in English language materials in Ukraine, international organizations and suggested for use in major English-speaking countries. The spelling of the city's name is a linguistic controversy, as it is argued by some that the long-established "Kiev" spelling is based on the Russian transliteration that was prevalent during the Soviet period and therefore is a reminder of Russian influence over Ukraine.
