The Kyiv Cave Monastery is the main Orthodox shrine in Ukraine. It was founded on the picturesque hills of the Dnipro River in the mid-11th century. Throughout its existence, the monastery has been a center of Orthodoxy, enlightenment, and humanism. Having survived the difficult times of destruction and bans, it has not lost its beauty and grandeur. The Lavra continues to amaze with its perfection. On its territory you can always see many pilgrims, believers and just curious tourists.
