Welcome to Kiev
Welcome to Kiev, the capital of Ukraine and a city that is rapidly emerging from the doldrums of its Soviet past. Like many developing cities, it is running at two speeds. Versace-clad models and their wealthy benefactors zoom along its roads in black SUVs, while elderly babushkas huddle outside Metro stations begging for a few kopecks. You can dine in restaurants with prices that would shock New Yorkers, or join the masses in MacDonald’s on Khreschatyk. Kiev has something for everyone.
