Lonely Planet review

Looking from St Sophia's Cathedral past the Bohdan Khmelnytsky statue it's impossible to ignore the gold-domed blue church at the other end of proyizd Volodymyrska. This is St Michael's Gold-Domed Monastery, named after Kyiv's patron saint. As the impossibly shiny cupolas imply, this is a fresh (2001) copy of the original St Michael's (1108), which was torn down by the Soviets in 1937.
