20 Things to do in Kiev, Ukraine Travel Guide Video Script:
This week we’re showing you around Kiev, Ukraine. This was our first time travelling to the country, so we hardly knew what to expect, though we did have an inkling we’d find churches with onion domes, borsht on every menu, and very cheap prices, but that was it!
Well, we found some of that, but we also discovered a fascinating city with ornate architecture, massive Soviet monuments, a completely new cuisine, more churches and monasteries than we ever thought possible, and friendly people despite the language barrier.
The following is our travel guide to the city. Now let us share with you 20 things to do in Kiev on your next visit!
And that’s a wrap for our visit to Kiev! This was our first time travelling in Ukraine, but we were hooked right from the start.
This destination felt very underrated with few tourists around, yet we were surrounded by beautiful architecture, there were churches galore to visit, the cuisine was hearty and filling, and everything was super affordable.
If you are thinking of travelling to Kiev, we hope this video was able to give you a taste of what it’s like.
If you have any other suggestions of things to do in Kiev, that we may have missed, feel free to share your tips and suggestions with travellers in the comments.
This is part of our Travel in Ukraine video series showcasing Ukrainian food, Ukrainian culture & cuisine.

PAN AM AIRLINES USSR SOVIET UNION COLD WAR TRAVELOGUE 42344
USSR is a promotional film from Pan American World Airways, produced and directed by Henry Strauss (most likely in the late 1960s), that encourages tourism to the Soviet Union by taking viewers on a visual tour of a number of the republics and their cities. The film opens with footage of Moscow’s Red Square as the narrator recaps the famous rulers, writers, and musicians from the Russia’s past. The size of the USSR, with its diverse climate and people, make it a destination unlike any other. The tour begins in Kiev, with the Pechersk Monastery (03:15), also known as the Kiev Monastery of the Caves, which features catacombs that are over 800 years old. Other highlights of Kiev include Sophiyska Square and its Hetman Bohdan Khmelnitsky Monument (03:38), Saint Sophia’s Cathedral (03:44), Kiev’s city skyline (04:01), and a bridge over the Dnieper River (04:08). In the east of the Soviet Union is the ancient city of Tashkent; the Uzbek republic is predominantly Muslim, and worshipers pray on the streets of Tashkent (04:20). Tashkent’s Old Quarter (05:35) is a great place to visit, but the modern areas of the city (06:00) have their own treasures, such as the Navoi Opera Theater (06:14). The next stop is Moscow, where the famed Red Square separates several of the country’s top highlights, like the Kremlin (06:18), St. Basil’s Cathedral (07:01) and its square (06:42). The city of Riga features old-but-aesthetic buildings (07:30), but more ornate buildings are found in Leningrad (08:18). Formally known as St. Petersburg (08:01), this city is home to the Russian Museum (08:24), the Hermitage Museum (08:32)—which features works from da Vinci, El Greco, van Gogh, Matisse, Renoir, and Picasso—and the Winter Palace (09:08) filled with the riches of the Romanovs. Viewers see scenes of streets, train stations, and children before the film returns to Uzbekistan, where children learn traditional dances (11:48) and men harvest cotton from the Fergana Valley (12:48). Farming is a primary industry in the soil-rich Don Valley (13:30) of Ukraine. Ukraine’s Chernozem, its famous black earth, is excellent for cultivating wheat and other crops. Collective farms (13:56) are common throughout the region, and members of the collectives go to the main cities to sell their harvests. Bustling food and flower markets (15:50) are a staple of the Soviet Union. The people here enjoy passing time in the various public gardens (16:25), but arguably their favorite pastime is vacationing to the Black Sea (17:20). Odessa (16:30), Yalta (18:05), and Sochi highlight the Soviet Riviera, where locals and visitors can relax on the beaches or keep busy with watersports and the offerings of the coastal cities. The film’s next stop is Tbilisi (20:43), the capitol of the Georgian republic. Rustaveli Ave (20:49), named after the famous poet, is the main throughfare of the city. Streets of the Old City (21:37) and Metekhi Castle overlooking the Mtkavri River (22:01) are just two of many places to visit in Tbilisi. The U.S.S.R. is a land of great rivers, and the film provides footage of a number of them (22:25). A boatride down the Neva River leads to Petergof (23:08), former home of the gardens of the Czars that are now public gardens (23:16), featuring an extraordinary number of fountains. A shot of Moscow from the Moskva River (24:26) takes viewers back to Moscow, home to Moscow State University (25:12) and the Bolshoi Theatre (26:04). Gorky Street and Moscow at night (27:00) provide endless entertainment; restaurants, theatres, a Bolshoi Theatre performance (27:25), movies, and the circus (28:08). Gorky Park (28:58), Moscow’s park of culture and leisure, features games and food, a favorite for locals. The film shows a national parade (29:35) in Moscow’s Red Square in November, featuring representatives from all the republics of the U.S.S.R. The final montage sequence of the film includes people strolling around Red Square, playing cards, spending an afternoon at a café, and scenery from earlier in the film.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Odessa or Odesa (Ukrainian: Оде́са [oˈdɛsɐ] (listen); Russian: Оде́сса [ɐˈdʲesə]) is the third most populous city of Ukraine and a major tourism center, seaport and transport hub located on the northwestern shore of the Black Sea. It is also the administrative center of the Odessa Oblast and a multiethnic cultural center. Odessa is sometimes called the pearl of the Black Sea, the South Capital (under the Russian Empire and Soviet Union), and Southern Palmyra.
Before the Tsarist establishment of Odessa, an ancient Greek settlement existed at its location. A more recent Tatar settlement was also founded at the location by Hacı I Giray, the Khan of Crimea in 1440 that was named after him as Hacıbey. After a period of Lithuanian Grand Duchy control, Hacibey and surroundings became part of the domain of the Ottomans in 1529 and remained there until the empire's defeat in the Russo-Turkish War of 1792.
In 1794, the city of Odessa was founded by a decree of the Russian empress Catherine the Great. From 1819 to 1858, Odessa was a free port - porto-franco. During the Soviet period, it was the most important port of trade in the Soviet Union and a Soviet naval base. On 1 January 2000, the Quarantine Pier at Odessa Commercial Sea Port was declared a free port and free economic zone for a period of 25 years.
During the 19th century, Odessa was the fourth largest city of Imperial Russia, after Moscow, Saint Petersburg and Warsaw. Its historical architecture has a style more Mediterranean than Russian, having been heavily influenced by French and Italian styles. Some buildings are built in a mixture of different styles, including Art Nouveau, Renaissance and Classicist.Odessa is a warm-water port. The city of Odessa hosts both the Port of Odessa and Port Yuzhne, a significant oil terminal situated in the city's suburbs. Another notable port, Chornomorsk, is located in the same oblast, to the south-west of Odessa. Together they represent a major transport hub integrating with railways. Odessa's oil and chemical processing facilities are connected to Russian and European networks by strategic pipelines.

Russian 'Diggers club' uncovers secret Soviet era history in Vladivostok & Ukraine
Fantastic little 30 minute documentary including these great modern Russian & Ukrainian Diggers uncovering hidden Partisan bases from World War II etc etc
Many interesting things are hidden underground. In Odessa, Ukraine, man-made caves are scattered across the region and are two and a half thousand kilometers long. These catacombs were home to partisan bases during World War II. In Vladivostok -- the main Russian military naval base in the Far East -- engineers built a fortress at the beginning of the 20th century. Also, the largest underground Russian church is hidden in Penza.

SUMMARY
=======
The Transnistria Governorate (Romanian: Guvernământul Transnistriei) was a Romanian-administered territory between the Dniester and Southern Bug, conquered by the Axis Powers from the Soviet Union during Operation Barbarossa and occupied from 19 August 1941 to 29 January 1944. Limited in the west by the Dniester river (separating it from Bessarabia), in the east by the Southern Bug river (separating it from the German Reichskommissariat Ukraine), and in the south by the Black Sea, it comprised the present-day region of Transnistria (which compared to the World War II whole is only a small strip along the bank of the Dniester) and territories further east (modern Odessa Oblast eastward of the Dniester and southern Vinnytsia Oblast), including the Black Sea port of Odessa, which became the administrative capital of Transnistria during World War II.
In World War II, the Kingdom of Romania, persuaded and aided by Nazi Germany, took control of Transnistria for the first time in history. In August 1941, Adolf Hitler persuaded Ion Antonescu to take control of the territory as a substitute for Northern Transylvania, occupied by Miklós Horthy's Hungary following the Second Vienna Award. Despite the Romanian administration, the Kingdom of Romania did not formally incorporate Transnistria into its administrative framework; the Nazi-friendly Antonescu government hoped to annex the territory eventually, but developments on the Eastern Front precluded it.
