This one's all buildings. Sorry mom, no photos of me!- lest we forget where (chronologically) we spent a good chunk of last century.
- oops, how'd this from the Monastery get in this batch?
- at left, facing Steve's apartment.
- at right, aren't the "ugly Stalin buildings" more cute and interesting in Kyiv?
- St. Someone next to St. Other
- as Steve rightly points out, probably the reddest building in town.
- Kofe Khaus, even in Kyiv, a blight on the landscape (writes Charles while sitting in the air-conditioned, fast internet equipped confines of his local Kofe Khaus).
- not a bad Opera Theater. Not bad at all.
- Oh Kyiv, you little corner of Krakow/Budapest, you!
- seriously, where are we? Central Europe?!
- St. Sophia's Cathedral, although domes have changed shape and visage many times, the interior really remind one of Hagia Sophia, its sister/mother.
- the bell tower at St. Sophia's.
- just another of Charles' favorite Kyivan structures. Many more like it, lending hilly, tree-lined, balconied Kyiv its atmosphere.
