Kaniv Nature Reserve | Unexplored Ukraine
The great poet Taras Shevchenko dreamt of living in these places of extraordinary beauty. But the soaring spirit of freedom did not let the human race to take possession of these lands. Today, its rightful inhabitants reign here - animals and birds. The Kaniv Nature Reserve, one of the oldest in Ukraine, stretches across the Cherkasy oblast in the very heart of Ukraine. Founded almost a century ago, it still remains a treasure trove of many secrets and discoveries.

Ukraine/Kiev (Sightseeing Kiev City) Part 14
Welcome to my travelchannel.On my channel you can find almost 1000 films of more than 70 countries. See the playlist on my youtube channel.Enjoy!
Kiev,Kyiv:
Kiev is the capital and largest city of Ukraine, located in the north central part of the country on the Dnieper River. The population in July 2015 was 2,887,974 (though higher estimated numbers have been cited in the press), making Kiev the 8th most populous city in Europe.Kiev is an important industrial, scientific, educational, and cultural centre of Eastern Europe. It is home to many high-tech industries, higher education institutions and world-famous historical landmarks. The city has an extensive infrastructure and highly developed system of public transport, including the Kiev Metro.The city's name is said to derive from the name of Kyi, one of its four legendary founders (see Name, below). During its history, Kiev, one of the oldest cities in Eastern Europe, passed through several stages of great prominence and relative obscurity. The city probably existed as a commercial centre as early as the 5th century. A Slavic settlement on the great trade route between Scandinavia and Constantinople, Kiev was a tributary of the Khazars, until seized by the Varangians (Vikings) in the mid-9th century. Under Varangian rule, the city became a capital of the Kievan Rus', the first East Slavic state. Completely destroyed during the Mongol invasion in 1240, the city lost most of its influence for the centuries to come. It was a provincial capital of marginal importance in the outskirts of the territories controlled by its powerful neighbours; first the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, followed by Poland and Russia.The city prospered again during the Russian Empire's Industrial Revolution in the late 19th century. In 1917, after the Ukrainian National Republic declared independence from the Russian Empire, Kiev became its capital. From 1919 Kiev was an important center of the Armed Forces of South Russia and was controlled by the White Army. From 1921 onwards Kiev was a city of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, which was proclaimed by the Red Army, and, from 1934, Kiev was its capital. During World War II, the city again suffered significant damage, but quickly recovered in the post-war years, remaining the third largest city of the Soviet Union.Following the collapse of the Soviet Union and Ukrainian independence in 1991, Kiev remained the capital of Ukraine and experienced a steady migration influx of ethnic Ukrainians from other regions of the country. During the country's transformation to a market economy and electoral democracy, Kiev has continued to be Ukraine's largest and richest city. Kiev's armament-dependent industrial output fell after the Soviet collapse, adversely affecting science and technology. But new sectors of the economy such as services and finance facilitated Kiev's growth in salaries and investment, as well as providing continuous funding for the development of housing and urban infrastructure. Kiev emerged as the most pro-Western region of Ukraine where parties advocating tighter integration with the European Union dominate during elections.
Geography:Geographically, Kiev belongs to the Polesia ecological zone (a part of the European mixed woods). However, the city's unique landscape distinguishes it from the surrounding region.
Kiev is located on both sides of the Dnieper River, which flows south through the city towards the Black Sea. The older right-bank (western) part of the city is represented by numerous woody hills, ravines and small rivers. It is a part of the larger Dnieper Upland adjoining the western bank of the Dnieper in its mid-flow. Kiev expanded to the Dnieper's lowland left bank (to the east) only in the 20th century. Significant areas of the left-bank Dnieper valley were artificially sand-deposited, and are protected by dams.
The Dnieper River forms a branching system of tributaries, isles, and harbors within the city limits. The city is adjoined by the mouth of the Desna River and the Kiev Reservoir in the north, and the Kaniv Reservoir in the south. Both the Dnieper and Desna rivers are navigable at Kiev, although regulated by the reservoir shipping locks and limited by winter freeze-over.
In total, there are 448 bodies of open water within the boundaries of Kiev, which include Dnieper itself, its reservoirs, and several small rivers, dozens of lakes and artificially created ponds. They occupy 7949 hectares of territory. Additionally, the city boasts of 16 developed beaches (totalling 140 hectares) and 35 near-water recreational areas (covering more than 1000 hectares). Many are used for pleasure and recreation, although some of the bodies of water are not suitable for swimming.Wikipedia

Sunken Church
Sunken Orthodox Church near Kaniv city, Ukraine, flooded by Dniper river when a dam was built in the middle of past century. There were a few villages, which population moved to other places. Ghosts of Old Times are flying around you when you pass by it on a boat.
Kiev. Ucrania
Hay muchos más lugares por visitar en Kiev, a mi me gustó mucho la iglesia barroca de San Andrés por su exuberancia y colorido (fotos 1 a 3), fue construida por los rusos en 1747 sobre una colina, con unas vistas espectaculares hacia el río Dniéper.
Otro lugar interesante para ver y pasear es el Arco de la Amistad (fotos 4 y 5) en el Parque Khreschaty. Es un estructura con forma de arco de 50 metros de diámetro más dos grupos de esculturas que tratan de representar la amistad de los pueblos ruso y ucraniano. Una de ellas por ejemplo está hecha de bronce y representa a unos trabajadores rusos y ucranianos sosteniendo el Símbolo Soviético de la Amistad entre los Pueblos (foto 6). El lugar donde se encuentra el arco también es interesante, para apreciar una de las mejores vistas desde la altura de la ciudad sobre el río, y si eres valiente te puedes lanzar en tirolina y cruzarlo (fotos 7 a 9), solo verlo daba miedo, y es que es la travesía en tirolina más larga de Europa con más de 500 metros de largo, con su certificado Guinness y todo.
Hay lugares históricos como la Puerta Dorada de Kiev (foto 10), hoy un museo sobre la historia de la ciudad, y con los restos de lo que fuera la antigua entrada fortificada a la ciudad del siglo XI, construida según la Puerta Dorada de Constantinopla de la que tomó su nombre.
Recorriendo en centro de la ciudad veréis multitud de mercadillos de todo tipo: pinturas (foto 11), recuerdos del pasado Europeo de Futbol celebrado aquí en forma de balones junto a cascos de astronauta (foto 12), o de camisetas junto a las típicas muñequitas rusas (foto 13). También es obvio decir que toda la ciudad estaba repleta de estructuras y pequeños monumentos alusivos al Europeo (foto 14) y banderas de los países participantes en el campeonato en cada plaza (foto 16)...

Ukraine. Different time of year, different places and time of day.
Одичалые. Заброшенные места Украины.
Одичалые - заброшенные и дикие места Украины. Это видео - запись моего выступления на фестивале Дикий Travel. Украина, посвященному путешествиям по Украине. Здесь и я привнес свою лепту, рассказав об уникальных строениях, некогда поражавших своею красотою и величием, а сейчас забвенных и поглащенных природой. Туристические маршруты обходят их стороной, хотя и напрасно. Еще я проведу параллели с подобными же сооружениями, но реконструированными и получившими новую жизнь. Итак, я взял четыре типа архитектуры - храмы (церкви), форты (крепости), усадьбы (дворцы) и замки. Яркими примерами этим типа послужат следующте пары:
2:00 - Ильинская церковь в с.Цибли - Спасо-Преображенская церковь в с.Гусинцы
3:59 - Таракановский форт - Косой капонир
5:27 - усадьба Курисов - усадьба Хоецких
7:54 - Клеванский замок - Радомышльский замок

Василь Лещенко. Яхтсмен з Горішніх Плавнів · Ukraїner
Історія про яхтсмена:
Нещодавно Горішні Плавні повернули історичну назву місцевості, у якій колись було побудоване містечко для гірничо-збагачувального комбінату, і дивно було б, якби тут не виявилось людей, що цими плавнями живуть. Такою людиною є, наприклад, Василь Лещенко, до якого ми приїхали в гості під час третьої експедиції. Він заснував єдиний у місті яхт-клуб, який швидко став візитівкою Горішніх Плавнів, а його саморобну яхту визнано емблемою міста.
