Ironically, now that there is a war in Ukraine and tourists cannot visit it, we are all curious about the geography of the country and the landmarks we can no longer see except on websites. Meanwhile, to satisfy your curiosity, here are some of the tourist sites.
Saint Sophia Cathedral in Kiev, the capital of Ukraine, is recognizable from its green and gold cupola rooftops. They are also known as onion domes.
The cathedral has been featured on a postage stamp.
Cave Monastery, Kiev
This has caves and monks. Kiev monastery of the caves is a complex containing a cathedral was well as a church.
Eastern Orthodox. A UNESCO World Heritage site.
The Wikipedia page lists the other cathedrals in Ukraine, including two more in Kiev, two in Lviv, one in Odessa and more.
Easter Egg Museum
You may think of Easter eggs as an Easter item, or as secular, pagan or cultural items, whichever, they are beautiful easter eggs at the Easter egg decoration museum, which has a novelty egg construction.
Dnipro has one of the world's largest Jewish complexes, housing two hotels, a four star hotel, a basic hotel, a kosher restaurant, a museum and a synagogue. The complex can house conferences and weddings.
The seven oblong towers represent the seven branches of the menorah, a candlestick with seven branches representing the seven days of the week.
This is clearer when you look at the model.
