Pay for a private section, definitely not a luxury rail line, but good enough and cheap enough to go anywhere in Ukraine on a low budget. More

This is monument to exUSSR architecture. Nothing to see there. You have to go there only if you are hungry for photography of poor people from villages which are constanly there because of a big market near there. Absolutely not a place where you want to buy some snacks and fast-food. More

It is a very attractive building probably from the 19th Century which somehow survived all the destruction of the Second World War. Train information in Russian, Ukranian and English. I got told off for taking a photo in a 'military area' although there was nothing to indicate it... More

If you follow the crowd most people leave by the side - this means you miss the main terminal building with its amazing roofs and fabulous ornate design. From the train platform walk straing ahead to the main... More
