Kiev is known as the capital of golden domes. Its nickname is due to the many churches and monasteries such as the Cave Monastery and St. Sophia Cathedral, both protected as UNESCO World Heritage Sites, the rebuilt St. Michael's Monastery, and St. Alexander's Church. But beyond these unique cultural monuments, there is much to discover: vibrant markets, museums, theaters, and opera invite you to visit, while Khreshchatyk and the arts and crafts and souvenir market in Podil beckon for a leisurely stroll. For breaks during city explorations, there are not only numerous cafés and restaurants available but also many.
