Street art in Kiev - Travel Eat Enjoy Repeat

Street art in Kiev

Kiev is the perfect mix between old and new, between Eastern and Western Europe. The last couple of years, the number of large-scale murals in Kiev has increased a lot. You will find street art all over the city. It is impossible to see all street in Kiev during only 1 visit. I would advise picking a few neighborhoods to hunt for street art.

This website shows a map of all street art there is to find in Kiev. We only walked around 1 neighborhood to look at street art. Even in this small area, you will see some amazing murals by various artists.
