Fifteen centuries of civilisation has left an indelible stamp on the architectural and intellectual landscape of Kiev, and made the city a leading centre of culture, not just in Ukraine but in the whole of East Europe and Russia. Scores of museums, a proud legacy of theatre and a rapidly developing contemporary arts scene mean there's plenty of exhibitions, performances and activities for culture buffs to stick their claws into - whilst theology students shouldn't miss the sensational St. Sophia's Cathedral and the Pechersk Lavra. The latter is a vast complex of monasteries, churches, caves and museums and is considered the spiritual home of Orthodox Christianity.

Chernobyl Museum
reviewed by kevin
from United Kingdom
on Sep.10.2011 | "While i was in Kiev my guide took me to The Chernobyl Museum,Its a must for everyone to see you have a walker talker as i call them which tells you the story as you walk around which to me was very good the first part i did enjoy.
Its when you get into the other part and you see all thoses children on the wall young and sweet and to think they died just so the people of Ukraine could turn a light on so sad.If anything that will bring a lump to your throat when you see thoses children on the wall and they look so happy with all of them smiling.
There is a book there which you can sign its a pity not many people do sign it or even write something about the Museum.
One thing is for sure they need a lot more signs there to tell you where the Museum is as my guide had to ask 2 people there where it was and she lives there.
But if anyone reads this please go there just for the sake of thoses poor familys that lost everything even their lives. " |
