Kyiv
4 things to see
Kyiv is a sprawling capital on the Dnipro River, with golden-domed monasteries, a vibrant food scene, and one of the deepest metro systems in the world. Many of its landmarks reward simple walking: the riverside parks, the hillside paths, and the historic streets are free to wander, and the metro is famously cheap to ride. When conditions allow, it is one of Europe’s most affordable and culturally rich capitals.
