Things to see and do Kharkiv (Харкiв)

It is the oldest park in the city. Built in the centre, it was planted in 1804. The central alley bordered by chestnut trees connects the Shevchenko Shevchenko monument to the university. Built on more than 25 ha, the garden houses more than 100 varieties of plants. Each year the park is reworked and enlarged. At its end is the Ukraina concert and cinema hall, opened in the 1960 s. We can still see the University and the Hotel Kharkiv, two Soviet constructions typical of the 1930 s.
