I visited Kiev for the first time a week after the events on Maidan. The central parts of the city was still like a war zone, but there is so much more to Kiev than that! I love the large orthodox churches and we went on a walk in a park with lots of street art. Can't wait to explore more in this capital of my fiancee's home country. Below St Andrew's church...
...and St. Sophia Cathedral
Statue of Peeing Colours in a park nearby...
Soviet style letter boxes it the bottom of an apartment complex

The Motherland Monument or the 'Rodina-Mat' is a monumental statue that is a part of the Museum of the Great Patriotic War. It stands on top of the museum building, is 62m tall and weighs 560 tonnes.
Outside of the museum we found two 'well camouflaged' tanks
Close by there was an army museum with not so colourful tanks...
