Starting at the top of Andriyivsky uzviz by the National Museum of Ukrainian History, the alley skirts around a large ravine offering great views of the city. It's always full of people and there is a cluster of modern urban art in its middle section. On warm nights, young Kyivites perch on a stone barrier here to chat over a latte or beer – bottles always wrapped in paper because of the not-so-vigorously enforced ban on drinking alcohol in the street. Many people descend down the wooded slope to enjoy stronger booze and more intimate communication.
