How To Visit The Kyiv War Museum and The Motherland

I cannot say that Kyiv is the most beautiful city in Ukraine. No, that would be a lie. Kyiv is a great city, but many bad things happened to it, including the World Wars, Soviet Union Regime and of course the corruption of Ukrainian government. How did it effect Kyiv? Well…. First, during the War a big part of this city was ruined, then during the Soviet Union were built ugly great boxes that people…

Taras Shevchenko Park

This article is about Taras Shevchenko Park. For a history of Taras Shevchenko the person, click here. If you are going to travel to Ukraine, chances are that you will go to Kyiv (Kiev) the capital of Ukraine.

Kyiv Golden Gate

Kyiv starts from the Golden Gate. That is what my history teacher used to say. The Golden Gate is a symbol of Kyiv and although it may not be considered a fancy one or a big one, it is extremely important for Ukrainians. Usually, the city’s most important construction was the fortification wall and the gates. Unfortunately for Kyiv and Ukraine in general, the city’s walls and almost all the city was destroyed…

Cool Things To Do In Paris

Everyone has heard a phrase “Paris is the most romantic city in the world”, but to me Paris is more like an open museum. Every street, every building, every park has its own unique long history and important meaning. If you point to any building and say this is something important, I am 99% sure that you will be correct. And although this makes Paris an incredible city, it also makes it a place that…

Have A Stroll Around The Tuileries Garden (Jardin des Tuileries)

The Tuileries Garden is a great public garden that is located between the Louvre museum and the Place de la Concorde. It is a favorite place for Parisians to relax, have a nice walk, or have a picnic. The park was created in 1564 by Catherine di Medici.
