Poltava Sightseeing Walk Tour

The last phase of my almost a month 2nd Wave of Pandemic Adventure

October 16 to October 24, 2020

Chernobyl (Pripyat) Day Tour

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.

Poltava is also called a cultural capital because of its colourful history and many famous Ukrainians who were born in Poltava. Native citizens often follow this idea, being proud of their city and calling it "a city where one wants to live in". Off course, trying to keep this rate: there are many sites of architecture, museums, universities, elementary schools, cinemas, theatres and so on. Apart from that, city is often referred as "green" as there are many parks, gardens and other recreational areas.
