The monument is dedicated to the unification of Ukraine with Russia, which occurred in 1654. Once the monument was decorated with two inscriptions: "In commemoration of the reunification of Ukraine with Russia "and" Constructed in the Year of the 60th Anniversary of the Formation of the USSR ", but due to later historical events both of these inscriptions were removed. An elegant view opens up from the observation deck near the Arch.

The famous Arch of Friendship of Peoples in Kiev is seen best from the side left bank or Trukhanov Island. Very impressive, it stands out against the background of the green slopes of the Dnieper. To get a closer look at this landmark, it can be accessed in two ways. The first is to descend from the Vladimirsky descent and pass by the philharmonic society, the second - to climb up from the right bank embankment in the area of the pedestrian bridge. The first way is preferable, because it is always easier to descend, and you have to overcome the bottom ... Read the whole review

Being in Kiev, we decided to ulyatsya and see the center. It changes and at every season looks different, in summer and spring - in bright colors, in autumn - in yellow. Before leaving we saw what would be interesting to visit, and then liked the Water Museum. We went to him from Khreshchatyk to the European Square. And then on the way they saw an unusual sight in the form of a rainbow, I had not seen it before.
They descended the stairs, and a review of it began. It turns out that this is not just a rainbow, this landmark ... Read the full review

I met with my friends in Kiev and decided to walk along the front street of the capital to the survey site, which is located behind the European Square. Approaching this place, we slipped through the park, then noticed a beautiful monument - a large arcuate rack. In the evening, it really shines with all the colors of the rainbow. Under the arch itself are sculptures of two people - a Ukrainian and a Russian, who together hold the ribbon and akkurat opposite them is the people. This statue symbolizes the reunification of Ukraine and ... Read the full review

Kiev is the capital of hospitable Ukraine, a wonderful place for tourists!

For me, the most successful place where you can walk and enjoy the beautiful view is the monument of the Friendship of Peoples Arch. Every time I return to Kiev, I always go there to walk, especially the Arch is not far from Khreshchatyk, on a hill. The Arch itself is not particularly noteworthy, but the view that opens onto the city is fascinating. Just recently there was a new attraction. You can fly over the Dnieper, along a rope stretched from a hill across the river. It is worth such a pleasure of two hundred and fifty hryvnia, and those wishing ... Read the full review

Arch of Friendship of Peoples is in Kiev near with the central street Khreshchatyk, on the European Square. Walking along Khreshchatyk, towards the Dnieper it is difficult not to notice it. This original landmark is a big rainbow, a sculpture of the working people and a sculpture of the people that stand on the right. It is a symbol of the friendship of peoples.
In the evening, the rainbow arch glows with all the colors of the rainbow.
If you walk under the rainbow, you can see the observation deck, from which opens a beautiful ... Read the whole review
