Located in north-east Ukraine, Kharkiv is the second-largest city in the region and is just 40 kilometers (24.8 miles) from the Russian border. Kharkiv boasts one of the biggest squares, Svobody, also known as Freedom Square, in the world. Freedom Square is the heartbeat of Kharkiv and is where a monument of Lenin was torn down during the unrest of 2014. Political turmoil aside, Kharkiv is an intriguing city, offering a bit of historic architecture, an emerging hipster culture, and a dynamic rock-music scene. A must-see experience is the famed Gorky Park, a 52.6-hectare (130-acre) amusement park with a giant Ferris wheel and cable cars. If Kharkiv has your curiosity peaked, then check out these amazing Airbnb vacation rentals for a comfy stay!
Please note that given the area’s unpredictable political situation, it’s best to check your government’s website for any advisories before traveling to Kharkiv.
