Description
Andriyivskyy Descent is one of the best known historic streets and a major tourist attraction in Kiev, the capital of Ukraine. It is often advertised as the Montmartre of Kiev. The descent, located between two hills, is the shortest passageway from the historic Old or Upper Town to the commercial Podil neighborhood. The street begins on the hilltop near the delicate late- baroque St Andrew's Church, which gave the street its current name. The descent also contains the: Castle of Richard Lionheart (on the left); Mikhail Bulgakov's house, and numerous other monuments. The street is thriving thanks to its unique topology, architecture, rich history, and also many gift shops, small art galleries by Ukrainian artists, luxurious restaurants. Descent is one of the favorite spots for Kievans and tourists alike.
