The Former Capital of Ukraine Kharkov, or in ukrainian - Kharkiv - was founded in 1653 and is situated in the North-East of Ukraine. Very beautiful city, big art cultural center. The first Kharkiv's University was openned in 1805 ( http://www.univer.kharkov.ua/ ). During the years 1919-1934 was the capital of Soviet Ukraine. |
|  | The Biggest Square in Europe The Liberty Square was projected in 1920s for special events and holiday, as Kharkiv was the capital at that time. The longest axis is 750 meters. |
| One of the many fountains... |
|  | Parks... I love Kharkiv for its multitude of parks, squares and fountains, quiet corners and crowded places. |

seza06 Mon Sep 4, 2006 16:44 UTC I think the zoo's treatment of the animals is bad. The conditions that the underfed animals were living in were terrible and it was sad to see animals lying in cages barely larger then them, often with untreated wounds due to overcrowed conditions. | johnsakura Thu Jun 29, 2006 19:50 UTC thank you for the info on ukraine. | DreamHolidayTravels Tue Jan 3, 2006 09:23 UTC Nice presentation, good info and very beautiful photos of Kharkiv. | Gianlu Mon Feb 28, 2005 14:52 UTC You made a great page!!!
