Hey, I'm Grisha
We are in the House of Cinema
Know when the movie starts?
What?
In my childhood I came here often
Mom really loved this place
There were concerts, parties, friend's birthdays
and I remember from my childhood a lot of things
Like there are 670 seats
And I lked it here very much
Now it's only film festivals and sometimes screenings of cool movies
But the strangest thing, they have tango evenings on Thursdays
That's weird
The Library of Vernadsky is the biggest library in Ukraine
It was built in between 1975 and 1989
This is Vernadsky
He was a philosopher, public figure, and founded such a science as
biogeochemistry
Which is actually about worms in the ground
But they named a library after him
Skovoroda was a philosopher
Lobachevsky founded Euclidean Geometry
Pushkin and Shevchenko were writers
Mendeleev...
Everyone knows he was a great chemist
Mechnikov was a biologist
We are in the library of Vernadsky
which is the main scientific information center
of the country
It used to be just a humanitarian library, but now it's also a technical one as well
They have amazing lighting here
exactly 70 skylights
which are used for saving energy in some way
And it's just cool here
Know any good books?
We're at the most beautiful place to work out in Kiev
It's an open gym in Hydra Park
It was built between 1965 and 1968
And it's where many people living in Kiev come to exercise in the summer
Can I get a spot?
Here we are in Zhytniy Market
The oldest working market in Kiev
When it opened, it was the largest covered market in Europe
And this is where I buy my ingredients for borsch and mojitos
What is this made out of?
Do you like mojitos?
Sometimes I like to play tennis
Thanks for watching my guide to Kiev
This is a metro station and I'm going home
