A true jewel preserved from mass tourism, Kyiv (Kiev) is the cradle of Slavic culture and Christianity in Central Europe. Kyiv (Kiev) was thus the first capital of the ""Kiev Rus"", a political territory common to the history of the three modern Eastern Slavic states: Ukraine, Russia, and Belarus.

The name Kyiv (Kiev) comes from one of its founders, the slavic prince Kyi.

Kiev occupies a central historical place, and has had an exceptional destiny. Great medieval power, the city has been the subject of invasions and attachments. Mongolians, Lithuanians, Tatars, Poles and Russians came to Kyiv (Kiev) and Ukraine before becoming independent again in 1991, at the end of the Soviet Union.

These movements of history gave Kyiv (Kiev) a remarkable identity, with varied architectural styles, mixing Byzantine, Oriental, Ukrainian, Imperial and Soviet influences.
