Gallery sights in Ukraine

  1. Zhyvopysna aleya

    About three-quarters of the way up Andriyivsky uzviz on the left, just before you get to St Andrew's Church, is Zhyvopysna aleya, which turns into a giant outdoor art gallery on weekends. We can't say much for the art (anyone for an air-brushed portrait of a semi-clad vixen in front of St Andrew's Cathedral?), but the leafy path leading southeast from here to Volodymyrska Hirka park makes for a pleasant walk or jog.
