Our next visit was to the State Aviation Museum of Ukraine. This museum is next to Zhulyany Airport in Kyiv. This is very large open air museum, but unfortunately, weather was too cold when we visited there.
The museum offers both aircraft exhibits and also interactive displays. The museum is one of the larger aviation museums displaying Soviet technology.
The State Aviation Museum is one of the most technically advanced museums in Ukraine, as it does not merely offer fascinating exhibits, but interactive displays. Each division in the museum concentrates on a specific time period within the aviation industry and therefore has a wide variety of aircraft and related memorabilia for visitors to explore. Some of the displays focus solely on historical aircraft such as the MiG Jet collection, the Anatra Anasal (1917-1918) and even helicopters that were used during certain wars.
Funny interest – Toilet Museum :)
On 24th of September we went to the Toilet Museum. Firstly, I want to say that it was so funny to me when I heard the name of this museum and couldn’t imagine what I’ll see there 😉
But this museum is really interesting and there is very good guide there. Our guide explain us all history about toilet. And there are lots of interesting facts about toilet in the history. Representative collection of exhibits includes an old wooden prison slop pail, English Victorian water-closet, and Victorian night vase of second half of 19th century, German portable ceramic bidet of the first half of 19th century.
And also there is a toilet-bowl with a portrait of famous anchorman Anatoly Borsyuk – a very remarkable exhibit!
Chornobyl disaster!- Terrible accident, deep sorrow!
23rd of September!…We went to the National Museum Chornobyl, whose mission is to help the mankind understand the scope of the disaster through the destinies of thousands of those people who witnessed the accident, participated in the mitigation and suffered from the disaster. The aim is to make people realize the necessary of reconciliation between man, science and technology that endanger the existence of the human civilization and Earth, to conceive the lessons of the tragedy in all the spheres of life, lest the world forget the lessons of Chornobyl. The museum is warning for the new millennia generations.
The Nuclear accident at the Chornobyl Nuclear Power Plant entered the history of the humankind as the most severe radioecological disaster of the XX century. The after-effects of it have no analogy and differ from another natural or manmade catastrophes. These are still the issues of contemporaneity and, unfortunately, of the generation to come. The National museum “Chornobyl” conveys the history of those tragic-events since the 26th of April, 1992.

The most impressive place I’ve ever visited – Holodomor!!!
Yes, here is the most impressive place! This is memorial of “Famine genocide in Ukraine!” This place is really mysterious. Everything reminds those people who died at that times – 1932-1933.
If you are in Kyiv you should visit this place! According to the decision of Kyiv Appellation Court, the demographic losses due to the famine amounted to 10 million, with 3.9 million famine deaths, and a 6.1 million birth deficit. How many people! By starvation! Holodomor is the place to immortalize them! 
Visit, see, remember! Just respect!
