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.

The Money Laundering Capital of the World [Documentary]
The Spider's Web explores how London became the money-laundering capital of the world for the rich and powerful. With contributions from leading experts, academics, and former insiders, the film highlights how in the world of international finance, corruption and secrecy have prevailed over regulation and transparency.
This powerful documentary shows how Britain transformed from a colonial power into a global financial superpower. In the 1960s, the City of London's financial interests created a web of offshore secrecy jurisdictions that captured wealth from across the globe and hid it behind obscure financial structures in a web of offshore islands. Today, up to half of all offshore wealth (globally) is hidden in one of many British offshore jurisdictions and Britain has become the largest global players in the world of international finance.

#TimesWithJames #ChernobylTour #ChernobylDisaster #ChernobylReactor #KievReview
On the 26th of April, 1986, in the number four light water graphite-moderated reactor of the Chernobyl Power Plant, there was a catastrophic nuclear accident. The event occurred during a late-night safety test which simulated a station blackout power failure, in the course of which safety systems were intentionally turned off, some against the directives of the Soviet Union. Water flashed into steam generated a destructive steam explosion, and a subsequent open air graphite fire. This fire produced considerable updrafts for about nine days. These lofted plumes of fission products into the atmosphere. This radioactive material precipitated into parts of the western USSR and Europe. The Chernobyl accident is considered the most disastrous nuclear power plant accident in history, both in terms of cost and casualties. The struggle, later known as the Battle for Chernobyl to stop there being a greater catastrophe, together with the later decontamination efforts for the surroundings ultimately involved 500000 workers, and cost an estimate 18 billion rubles, and was thought to have been one of the catalysts for the eventual downfall of the Soviet Union. And today, almost 32 years to the day from the accident, we were gonna visit Chernobyl Power Plant and the infamous town of Pripyat that was abandoned nearby. So then, we're on the bus. We've got Dane here. Nod's just over there. So, we have, let's take these off, a 45 minute walk to the train station, which actually sorted us out quite a bit. So, we've got here a Geiger counter to take with us on the Chernobyl tour. This measures, obviously, radiation, pretty much. At the moment, it's coming in at 0.11. Okay, 0.12. So, a map of the zone as well. After meeting at half past seven in the morning outside Kiev's main train station, we had a two hour bus ride due north to Chernobyl. Regardless of the tour, it was a beautiful day, and it was just lovely seeing the Ukrainian countryside going by, but we all kinda kept our thoughts to ourselves, knowing that we were visiting a place that hasn't really been accepting tours for very long, and also is still classified as uninhabitable by human beings. In 1986, soon after the disaster, a 30 kilometre exclusion zone was enforced around Chernobyl Power Plant. Within this, another 10 kilometre exclusion zone was also enforced. We would have to pass through these exclusion zones, and also have our radioactive levels tested when we left. We had to jump out and line up in front of the bus and have our passports checked, and it was also an opportunity for me to take a few photos looking down a very long, straight road that we'd just come up, and also som military armour that was there. So, we're at a checkpoint. Where is this the checkpoint from? Right, we're going to the secure zone at the moment, which means we have to go through passport control. Weather's got better, and my hangover's disappeared. Brilliant. Sorry about this guys, but I've got the completely wrong lens on at the moment to do any kind of vlogging, but we're in this first village, aren't we? We're in the 30 kilometre zone, aren't we, at the moment? So, we've gone through the main checkpoint, which I showed you a second ago, and now we're at the first kind of abandoned village that was evacuated a couple of days after the disaster, isn't it? There's loads of these houses about that are just completely overtaken by nature. It's absolutely nuts. 0.22 now. And that started off at 0.12, so we've gone up 10 micro blah, blah, blahs? Yeah, this place is completely empty, it's mad. Absolutely crazy. The Chernobyl Exclusion Zone, otherwise known as the Zone of Alienation, is largely uninhabited, except for about 300 residents that have refused to leave. The area has largely reverted to forests and has been overrun with wildlife because of a lack of competition with humans for space and resources.
