OK it is a bit of a reconstruction, but so is Avebury and Stonehenge.

The women are certainly beauties, until they become babushkas. Title: Re: Kiev Post by: Mother Brown on Wednesday, January 18, 2017, 21:05:18 So nobody on here has been there then.
Title: Re: Kiev Post by: pauld on Wednesday, January 18, 2017, 21:53:25 So nobody on here has been there then. Yeah, I have. But it was over 30 years ago when Kiev was still part of the Soviet Union and I was a 14-year old kid who was slightly distracted. Which is why I couldn't remember anything terribly useful to tell you. Sorry. From what I do remember, it was Mediterranean-style weather and a nice place to be on holiday. Fuck knows what it's like now though. Might also be worth bearing in mind Ukraine is still involved in a low-level war with Russia which might make Kiev a slightly less relaxed place for a holiday.Title: Re: Kiev Post by: mexico red on Thursday, January 19, 2017, 06:11:15 I went about 6 years ago, it was a beautiful city. No idea how much it has changed. Locals drank vodka by the gallon! The main square where the Orange Revolution took place has a shopping centre under it. Watched a dynamo Kiev league game, don't go in with the ultras. Racist as fuck.
