And you can choose just the most attractive for you. First of all you need to understand that Ukraine is very big and there are a lot of different places. I mean that there are wooden mountains, Black sea, Asovian sea, big cities, small cities, villages, lakes, kind of desert.... So for people who love mountains, skiing, hiking, I can suggest one places, and for people who love big cities and architecture - another places. Anyway, now I am going to gice you some ideas what to visit in Ukraine Kyiv Of course in any country you need to visit the capital. The capital of Ukraine is Kyiv. What to visit in Kyiv? St.Michael Cathedral, St. Sophia Cathedral. Those two Cathedrals are 1000 years old, they are one of the best cathedral's I've ever seen. If you have never been in orthodox churches, you definitely need ot visit them. St. Michaels cathedral has free entrance, but for Sophia you will need to pay around 5$. Both of them are located in downtown, not far from each other. 488157 1403653373group-6-dsc_8408_dsc_8413-6-images 9490_800x600_1321281405 Andrew's Descent.
