Chernobyl and Pripyat

Chernobyl tours are very popular in Ukraine. There is a myth that one cannot be in the Chernobyl zone. Experts say it's possible: short-term stay is not much more harmful than the transatlantic flight. But still, we should not forget that this is a zone of increased radioactivity.

For example, the radiation background on the sidewalk in Pripyat will be the same as in any other city, but it will be increased on open ground, flowerbed, and especially where there is moss.

However, many adventurous people take Chernobyl tours from Kiev to receive unforgettable experience.

Andrew's Descent in Kiev

Andrew's Descent is one of the ancient routes connecting the Upper City, its central part, with the commercial Podil neighborhood.

However, this version is not confirmed by any topographical references when comparing them with medieval acts of land ownership. It has got its modern name after the construction of St. Andrew's Church at the top of the street in the mid-18th century.
