They say, beauty lies in the eyes of beholder. But some places are really awful.
Want to see alternative Kyiv? You’re in the right place!
- Awful constructions, a cobblestone road between the old caves (that witnessed some of the worst crimes of XX century), abandoned (and working) factories, scratched buildings, left cemeteries, the pioneers of illegal real estate business in Kyiv and hills with strange stories.
- See where the merchants used to sell the food right at the foot of the scaffold, and where the biggest fire in Kyiv’s history ruined most of the constructions.

- Learn about one of the darkest days in Jewish history – the libel trial against Mendel Beilis, and see where the crime happened in 1911.
- Watch and learn about abandoned and still working factories with deep history. Pass through the old cobblestoned road, surrounded by old artificial caves. Find out the stop of the oldest settlement in Kyiv. Walk the block, used to be called the “small Tel Aviv in Kyiv”
