Kiev Landmark - St. Sophia Cathedral


Built in 11th century, Sophia is one of the most known landmarks.

The Cathedral was under renovation when we visited. There were many other famous landmarks were undergoing the same. Sergei was guessing that Kiev is preparing itself for the European Cup soccer tournament next year.
