10 Best Things to Do in Kharkiv, Ukraine
1. Visit the Holy Annunciation Cathedral
One of the most iconic cathedrals in the city, the Holy Annunciation Cathedral, is the first tourist attraction you will see when coming from Kharkiv Central Train Station.
The candy-striped painting, the iconic 80-meter-tall Bell Tower, and the Neo-Byzantine architecture style of the Holy Annunciation Cathedral can be seen from everywhere in the city. You can't miss it.
When I was there, it was a Sunday morning, and there was a service happening inside. So, I had to go back the next day to get a photo of the interior. However, the amount of detail on the exterior of this cathedral kept me occupied for most of my time there that day.
The Cathedral is also located right by the Lopan River, and you will get a better view of the Cathedral from afar if you walk across the Kupetskyi Bridge, up onto the University Hill via Sobornyi Descent, and to Ohlyadovyy Maydanchyk Vista Point.
The Ohlyadovyy Maydanchyk Vista Point is also one of the best places to watch the sunset behind the Holy Annunciation Cathedral and Kharkiv cityscape. Wait a little longer, and you will get to see the cathedral at night, where the structure is beautifully illuminated by artificial light.

2. Stroll Around the Dormition Cathedral
Right around the corner near the Ohlyadovyy Maydanchyk Vista Point, you will find another beautiful cathedral to check out. The Dormition Cathedral, one of the oldest structures in the city built in the 19th Century, is a stunning Neo-Classical structure featuring a 90-meter free-standing Bell Tower that dominates the entire city center.
Unlike its colorful neighbor (the Holy Annunciation Cathedral), the Dormition Cathedral exterior is somewhat similar to other Eastern Orthodox churches you find in Ukraine, with classic white paint and several golden domes, but on a larger scale.
The free-standing bell tower was built later to commemorate Napoleon's expulsion from Russia in the mid-19th Century, and it used to be the second tallest tower in Ukraine until the Great Lavra Bell Tower in Kyiv was constructed.
3. Visit the Holy Virgin Monastery
Another beautiful and important religious structure to check out while in Kharkiv is the Holy Virgin Monastery, located just west of the Constitution Square where we will be checking out next.
This monastery was built in the 17th Century and is still active and attended by the locals today. What sets this monastery apart from any other religious sites is that within the temple grounds, you will find a delicious bakery where you can sample their warm homemade bread with sweet fillings.
If you are looking for a quick, delicious bite while you walk through a beautiful garden and enjoy the stunning Eastern Orthodox architecture, be sure to check out the Holy Virgin Monastery when you are in Kharkiv.

4. Check Out the "Ukraine Flying" Independence Monument at Constitution Square
The "Ukraine Flying" Independence Monument is a stunning and proud representation of the undying fight for independence for all Ukrainians. It is located right at the heart of Kharkiv's historical city center at Constitution Square, making it a great starting point for you to explore all the tourist attractions in the city center.
In the evening, the square comes to life as the locals come and hang out with their friends and families, enjoying all the wonderful street performances.
There are also quite a few nice cafes and restaurants in Kharkiv that are near Constitution Square, such as my favorite Ukrainian restaurant, Puzata Hata, and other cafes that I will highlight under the food and drink section of this guide.
5. Admire the Mirror Stream Fountain
From Constitution Square, walk north for about 15 minutes and you will find beautiful Brutalist architecture on your left, which is the Kharkiv State Academic Opera and Ballet Theatre. On its right, across the road, you will find the most important landmark of Kharkiv, the Mirror Stream Fountain.
This romantic fountain, surrounded by water and a park filled with big trees, was built in the 40s and is popular among newlyweds who want to capture that iconic shot of themselves with the fountain.
It is especially beautiful at night when they turn on the lights, illuminating the fountain and the stunning structure of the Church of the Holy Myrrh-Bearers, another church you will be visiting next.
6. Look Up at the Church of the Holy Myrrh-Bearers
Surrounded by the large trees of Peremohy Garden Square and the epic Mirror Stream water fountain, the Church of the Holy Myrrh-Bearers is probably one of the most photogenic churches of all.
It is especially beautiful in the morning when the sun shines behind the church, and the city is still quiet and peaceful, making it one of my favorite places to stroll in the morning before I get my coffee at Krendel.
7. Be Blown Away by the Scale Derzhprom Complex
Next up, you are probably getting bored of all the classical style of the churches and cathedrals in Kharkiv, so now it is a good time to spice things up and check out a more brutal take on architecture, and nothing is more brutal than the Derzhprom Complex.
Derzhprom Complex is a stunning brutalist-style architecture built in the 1920s when Kharkiv was the capital city of the Ukrainian SSR. It was designed to look and feel random, but if you stand right at the center of Freedom Square, the symmetry of the structure will become apparent to you.
For me, this is something out of a cult film, Metropolis, a German science-fiction film that shows what people in the 1920s thought the future would look like. The Derzhprom Complex represents that highly-stylized futuristic city the movie was trying to create.
8. Check Out All the Beautiful Metro Stations in Kharkiv
One of the highlights of visiting Kharkiv for me was a chance to see their metro stations, known to be the prettiest in the country. I went underground on a rainy day in Kharkiv, and I was not disappointed.
I spent about 3 hours jumping from one metro station to another in order to recommend which ones are worth a visit, and I was able to narrow it down to 8 metro stations.
To explore the Kharkiv metro system, all you have to do is buy a ticket for 8 UAH. You can go to any station you want and transfer to any metro line you like without having to pay for another ticket.
If you do not have a lot of time in the city, be sure to at least drop by Botanichnyi Sad Station, 23 Serpnia Station, and Kyivska Metro Station, three of my favorite metro stations in Kharkiv.
9. Explore Other Brutalism and Soviet Architecture in Kharkiv
There are many other Brutalist and Soviet-era structures in Kharkiv that you should check out, so much so that I decided to combine them all into one thing to do. While you are in Kharkiv, keep an eye out for these stunning buildings.
As mentioned earlier, right across the road from Kharkiv, you will find one stunning-looking Brutalist architecture: the State Academic Opera and Ballet Theatre. The beehive-like ceiling of this building is so weird and psychedelic that it doesn't seem to fit well with the art market that can be found in front of the theater.
Budynok Zi Shpilem, or The House with a Spire, is a 12-story skyscraper designed in a Stalinist architectural style that was quite common to see throughout the Soviet Union in the past. You can find this kind of skyscraper all the way from Moscow to Riga to Warsaw. Be sure to keep an eye out for this skyscraper when you are in Kharkiv.
Kharkiv Post Office (Ukrposhta) is another weird-looking architecture that you can only find in a former Soviet state like Ukraine. It is located right at the square near Kharkiv Central Station. When you arrive in Kharkiv, be sure to look to your left, and you will find this rundown yet beautiful Post Office.
10. Get on a Cable Car and Explore all the Parks in Kharkiv

Last but not least, be sure to spend some time in one of the many huge parks you can find in Kharkiv. Parks like Gorky Park or Shevchenko Park are great places to spend the evening or weekends among the locals as they come out with their friends and family to socialize in these parks.
One of the cool things you can do at Gorky Park that is pretty unique to Kharkiv is to get on one of the small and colorful cable cars that go through the park.
The cable car system was built in 1971 and it runs for around 1300 meters, costs 30 UAH, and takes 18 minutes per trip. It is definitely one of the best ways to see a park as big as Gorky Park.
What to Eat and Drink in Kharkiv, Ukraine?
1. Have a Coffee and Pastries at Krendel Cafe (Крендель)
Krendel Cafe is one of my favorite cafes in Kharkiv that I like to frequent for breakfast. It opens at 8 AM, and they also have a bakery serving all kinds of cakes, pastries, and coffee.
They also have great WIFI, as well as power sockets near a few tables inside, making it the perfect place for me to whip out my laptop and work. They have delicious eclairs, jam-filled sugar-crusted donuts, and a hot cup of mouth-watering latte, so be sure to try them out when you are there.
2. Eat at the Hip Misʹke Kafe 1654
Another great and hip cafe with a more modern take on coffee, as well as a proper meal that I really like, is Misʹke Kafe 1654. They have many delicious desserts, as well as all-day breakfast, and some really creative main dishes like the one called Bangkok, which was interesting to try, to say the least 😂.
Other Things to Do in Kharkiv, Ukraine
1. Learn About the History at the Sumtsov Kharkiv Historical Museum
If you are interested in the history of Kharkiv, be sure to visit the Sumtsov Kharkiv Historical Museum, located in the Glass Building right by Constitution Square near the Ukraine Flying Monument.
There are exhibitions from the World War 1 and 2 periods, as well as the traditional life of the people in the region before modernization. Most of the text is in Russian, but you can get an English-speaking guide to accompany you, and he/she will explain room by room.
2. Stand Right at the 50th Parallel North Latitude
One of the fun facts I discovered when I was in Kharkiv was the fact that the 50th Parallel North Latitude, a circle of latitude that is 50 degrees north of the Earth's equatorial plane and crosses Europe, Asia, the Pacific Ocean, North America, and the Atlantic Ocean, runs through Kharkiv city center.
It might not sound that interesting, and if you don't pay attention, you might even miss it. But now that you know, keep an eye out for it when you are walking around Shevchenko Park in Kharkiv.
When to Visit Kharkiv, Ukraine?
The best time to visit Kharkiv is from June - September. Kharkiv rarely gets foreign tourist visits unlike Kyiv or Lviv, so you won't find it overwhelming to visit Kharkiv during the midsummer months.
It gets quite cold from October to March, where the temperature may dip down to the negative. So, I would avoid that period if you can.
How to Get to Kharkiv, Ukraine?
Getting to Kyiv, Ukraine
In order to get to Kharkiv, first, you will have to get to Kyiv, and there are several airlines that fly to Kyiv International Airport you can pick from.
If you are coming from the US, there is a direct flight from New York to Kyiv via Ukrainian Airline that you can take directly to Ukraine, or you can fly via several European airlines such as KLM, Lufthansa, and Air France.
If you are in Europe, you can either fly with a low-cost airline like Ryanair or simply travel by train from any of the main European hubs like Berlin, etc. However, the time it takes to travel will increase considerably if you choose to use trains (24 hours from Berlin to Kyiv).
Last but not least, if you are in Asia, the simplest option is to fly directly from Bangkok to Kyiv via Ukrainian Airline. They are cheap and fly directly to Kyiv in 11 hours.
To find a cheap flight to Kyiv, I would recommend you to use Skyscanner or Expedia to look for the cheapest route and schedule so that you can compare and pick the best one.
Getting from Kyiv Airport to Kyiv Central Train Station
Skybus will take you from the airport bus terminal (follow the BUS sign and you will find Skybus waiting for you outside the terminal) to Kyiv Central Train Station. The bus number is 322, so make sure you get on the right one.
Skybus operates from 5:40 - 23:30, and it runs every 30 - 60 minutes or so. The bus will cost you around 100 UAH, and they only accept cash. The journey will take you around 1 hour, depending on the traffic and the time you arrive.
Getting from Kyiv to Kharkiv
The good news is that the connection between the two biggest cities in the country is very good, so you will have no trouble finding a train that connects these two cities together.
There are over 10 daily trains from 12 AM to 11 PM, with the fastest one taking only 5 hours. The train usually costs from 180-500 UAH and more, depending on the class you pick.
You can book your trains online through the official website here: Book Ukraine Train Online or through Tickets.ua. You can simply pay with your credit card, and you will receive an email with a QR code. All you have to do is show it to the ticket master when you are on the train.
There are also many daily buses leaving Kyiv for Kharkiv, but I wouldn't recommend them as most of these buses are marshrutkas (mini-vans), which are not as comfortable or easy to find due to everything being in Cyrillic. Additionally, they can be as expensive as the train.
Getting from Lviv or Odesa to Kharkiv
Kharkiv is very well-connected, so you can easily take an overnight train from any big city in Ukraine that you have just visited, such as Lviv or Odesa, to Kharkiv.
Getting from Odesa to Kharkiv
I personally took a night train from Odesa to Kharkiv and had a great experience doing so. The train was new and modern, with a clean cabin, sheets, and power sockets available. I shared with a family and had a good night's sleep throughout the 13-hour train journey.
The train from Odesa to Kharkiv leaves at 19:21 and arrives in Kharkiv at 8:21 the next day. It costs from 250-400 UAH depending on the class you pick. There is another train that runs every day, unlike the one I took, and leaves around 9 PM, arriving in Kharkiv around 8 AM. It's a bit pricier though.
Getting from Lviv to Kharkiv
From Lviv, there are a few more trains you can take. It takes from 13 to 24 hours as you will be traveling from Western Ukraine to Eastern Ukraine. The cost of the ticket is from 300 to 2000 UAH, depending on the class you choose, and there are 5 trains a day departing from 3:23 to 22:00.
You can book your train ticket from the Official Ukrainian Train Website or through Tickets.ua.
Getting from Kharkiv Train Station to Kharkiv City Center
Kharkiv Train Station is only a 30-minute easy walk away from the city center, so there is no need to take any public transportation. If you are staying at the hostel I recommended, the hostel is right next to Kharkiv Central Station, so you can simply drop your bag there and walk another 20-30 minutes to explore the city center.
When to Get Around Kharkiv, Ukraine?
Almost every tourist attraction that I recommended here is all within walking distance, so you do not have to deal with local transportation. However, there is one thing that I highly recommend you to do: checking out all the beautiful metro stations in Kharkiv.
The Kharkiv Metro Station is pretty much the same as everywhere in Ukraine, where all you have to do is buy a token from the ticket booth once you enter the station, pay 8 UA per one trip, go down the escalator, and walk to the train platform.
For more information on how to navigate the Kharkiv Metro System, check out: How Does The Metro System In Kharkiv Work - The Ultimate Kharkiv Metro System Guide.
How Many Days to Spend in Kharkiv, Ukraine?
There are quite a few things to see in Kharkiv, and I would recommend you spend at least 2 full days (3 nights) when you are visiting Kharkiv. Here's a simple breakdown of what you would do each day for 2 days in Kharkiv.
Day 1: Visit all the beautiful churches and cathedrals in Kharkiv, such as Holy Annunciation Cathedral and Holy Virgin Monastery. Also, check out all the cool Soviet-era architecture, like the massive Derzhprom Complex. That should take you the whole day to do.
Day 2: We go underground and hop on a metro to see all the beautiful metro stations in Kharkiv. There are 8 metro stations worth visiting, spread out across 3 metro lines, so it will take you around 2 - 3 hours to cover them all.
After exploring the metro system, you can spend the rest of the day by visiting beautiful parks like Gorky Park or indulging yourself in one of the many hip cafes and restaurants in Kharkiv.
How Much Money Do I Need for Kharkiv, Ukraine?
With the brief 2-day itinerary above, we can calculate the minimum amount of money you will be spending in Kharkiv.
Accommodation: If you are staying in a hostel, you will be spending 18 USD for 3 nights in a dorm, which is around 440 UAH in total.
Food: When eating out in Kharkiv, you will likely spend around 120 UAH per meal, totaling 360 UAH for a day and 720 UAH for 2 full days.
Transportation: With this itinerary, you will only be paying 8 UAH for a metro ticket to see all the metro stations. What a bargain!
Activities: Most of the things you will do and see are all free, except for the cable car at Gorky Park, which will cost you 30 UAH per person.
Total Budget for 2 Days in Kharkiv: 1198 UAH (49 USD)
Is it Safe in Kharkiv, Ukraine?
As we travel east from Kyiv, the safety question in Ukraine can be a bit of a question mark, but from my personal experience, Kharkiv is still very safe to travel to.
Although, maybe not as freely as in Western Ukraine, you might get searched at a metro station, as I did, where they took me to a room and asked me to unpack my bag.
If you find yourself in that situation, remain calm and simply follow whatever they ask you to do. It is also a good idea to carry a copy of your visa and your entry stamp with a date on the passport, as they will check whether you are overstaying the tourist visa or not.
Other than being searched at a metro station, I had no problems at all exploring above ground in Kharkiv.
Which tourist SIM card is best for Ukraine?
Update: If your phone supports eSIM, I highly recommend checking out Airalo, a global eSIM marketplace. It allows you to stay connected affordably while traveling in Kharkiv, Ukraine without having to switch out your physical SIM card.
Gone are the days when you needed to scramble to find a local SIM card at an airport upon arrival. You can purchase an eSIM before your arrival, and you'll be good to go. If your phone doesn't support eSIM, here is how you can get a local SIM card in Kharkiv, Ukraine:
WIFI is available everywhere in most cafes and restaurants. Your accommodation should also have a reliable internet connection for you to stay connected. However, if you are looking to stay connected while exploring, I would recommend getting a local SIM card.
You can get a local SIM card from Vodafone or Kyivstar. They both offer similar plans with data ranging from 2GB to unlimited, costing between 55 UAH - 220 UAH.
For more information about Ukraine local SIM card: Ukraine Prepaid Data SIM Card.
Tips: To stay connected with people at home, be sure that you have a VPN, such as ProtonVPN, installed before traveling. It's FREE, and you can gain access to services that may be blocked in certain countries.
What to Pack for Kharkiv, Ukraine?
As you may already know, I am an advocate of light traveling, and indeed, packing light for a journey like this is a unique art form. Here are some packing tips for your upcoming trip to Kharkiv, Ukraine:
- Walking/Hiking Shoes: With all the walking and possible hiking during your travel, a comfortable pair of shoes is a must. I recommend the Timberland 3-Eye Classic Boat Shoes that are my go-to pair for long strolls and hikes.
- Breathable Shirts: Given the potential for hot weather, pack a few breathable shirts for your outdoor adventures.
- Shorts/Jeans: Anticipate lots of walking during your travels? Be sure to pack some breathable shorts and a pair of Levi's jeans for when the weather cools. For women, leggings are excellent for both hot and cold climates, so consider packing some as well.
- Fleece Jacket: For colder weather, layering is the key, and a fleece jacket makes an excellent insulating layer. I recommend the Columbia Steens Mountain Fleece (for women).
- Outer Shell Jacket: An outer shell jacket is great for windy or rainy conditions. I highly recommend the Columbia Watertight Jacket (for women). It's lightweight, breathable, and even comes in a cool orange color.
- Microfiber Towel: A Microfiber towel is the ideal backpacker's towel due to its lightness, quick drying, and compressibility.
- Camera: You should also pack a good camera for your trip so that you can capture all the beautiful experiences you might have. I recommend the Sony a7R V camera together with the Sony 24-70mm f2.8 GM II lens, which is probably the highest-performance camera and lens combination you can get right now.
- Power Bank: Keep your electronics charged on the go with a 20,000+ mAh Power Bank.
- Water Bottle: The Hydro Flask Trail Water Bottle is a great insulated water bottle to have with you in cities or on hiking trails. It is lightweight and can keep your water cold or warm for more than 12 hours. It's a total game-changer.
- Universal Adapter: You'll need just one universal adapter to plug in your electronics in any country you visit.
- Packing Cubes: Packing Cubes will help you save space in your backpack and keep all your belongings organized.
- Daypack: The Langly Alpha Globetrotter is my go-to everyday camera backpack. It's large enough to carry all my travel gear, and it comes with plenty of slots and pouches. Plus, it's stylish as hell!
- Large Backpack: You will need a large backpack to carry all of your stuff. I recommend the Osprey Atmos AG 65L backpack. With excellent weight distribution and a lifetime guarantee, you can't go wrong with Osprey.
For more information on what I pack in my backpack for this trip, check out: My Packing List: 60 Travel Essentials.
