Kiev Ukraine Travel

Welcome To Kiev Ukraine - Travel The World

Kiev is not just the capital city of Ukraine. It is the mother city for all East Slavic people. It is one of the oldest cities in Eastern Europe, and the modern, cosmopolitan city of Kiev, which is the pride of Europe, has seen many ups and downs in its tumultuous history. By 12th century A.D, Kiev was one of the largest cities of the world, and served as a major trade center between the Baltic and the Mediterranean states. Established in the 5th century, Kiev was all but destroyed by the rampaging Nazis, who killed most of the Jews residing here, destroying the cultural heritage and historic monuments as well. But the resilience of the people and the brave attempts of the authorities soon saw the city stand up back to its old glory. Despite all the sufferings, repressions, killings, and political turmoil, the spirit of the people of Kiev has never died and they have braved all disasters smilingly.
