Ukrainian and Polish people were related to each other by their common fate, history through the historical annals. It would be out of place to mention the fraternity that bounds our nations. However, sometimes we know about each other too little. That's why Days of eUkraine in ePoland were desided to be held by Ukrainian Conservative party within the limits of Days of ePoland in eUkraine, that is supported by ex-President of ePoland Pierre Dzoncy and President of Narodowa Demokracja Party - Quox.

This magic place attrackts the romanticists from all the country. The visiting of this "Tunnel of love" is thought as a good token.





Saint Sophia Cathedral is a cathedral temple of Kiev Metropolis (Ecumenical Patriarchate of Constantinople) in 1037-1299 and second one after the Church of the Tithes. Today, it is an outstanding architectural monument of Kievan Rus' and a multi-structural complex-museum. The cathedral is one of the city's best known landmarks and the first patrimony on territory of Ukraine to be inscribed on the World Heritage List along with the Kiev Cave Monastery complex. Aside from its main building, the cathedral includes an ensemble of supporting structures such as a bell tower, the House of Metropolitan, and others. In 2011 the historic site was reassigned from the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Regional Development of Ukraine to the Ministry of Culture of Ukraine.One of the reasons for that move was the fact that both "Sofia Kyivska" and Kiev Pechersk Lavra are recognized by the UNESCO World Heritage Program as one complex, while in Ukraine the two were governed by different government entities.






House with Chimaeras is an Art Nouveau building located in the historic Lypky neighborhood of Kiev, the capital of Ukraine. Situated across the street from the President of Ukraine's office, the building has been used as a presidential residence for official and diplomatic ceremonies since 2005.The street in front of the building is closed off to all automobile traffic, and is now a patrolled pedestrian zone due to its near proximity to the Presidential Administration building.
Architect Vladislav Gorodetsky originally constructed the House with Chimaeras for use as his own upmarket apartment building during the period of 1901–1902. However, as the years went by, Gorodetsky eventually had to sell the building due to financial troubles, after which it changed ownership numerous times before finally being occupied by an official Communist Party polyclinic until the early 2000s.When the building was vacated, its interior and exterior decor were fully reconstructed and restored according to Gorodetsky's original plans.
The building derives its popular name from the ornate decorations depicting exotic animals and hunting scenes, which were sculpted by Italian architect Emilio Sala since Gorodetsky was an avid hunter. The name does not refer to the chimaera of mythology, but to an architectural style known as chimaera decoration in which animal figures are applied as decorative elements to a building.

The complex is a candidate UNESCO World Heritage Site, nominated in 1989 by the Ukrainian representatives,and also one of the Seven Wonders of Ukraine.Today, the Kamianets-Podilskyi Castle is the most recognized landmark of the city,serving as an important regional and national tourist attraction.
