How to see Ukraine in miniature in Kiev
Earlier in this small open-air museum you could see only Kiev and its most famous places and buildings: Saint Sophia's Cathedral, Lavra, Khreshchatyk, Andrews Descent and many other Kiev sights. Over time, the museum grew and now all the most famous and beautiful buildings and places of Ukraine or, more precisely, their miniature copies are gathered here.
