Pecherskyi District, Administrative district in central Kyiv, Ukraine

The Pecherskyi District spans across hills near the Dnipro River, containing numerous government buildings, embassies, and historical monuments within its boundaries.

The district evolved from a 12th-century settlement near the Kyiv Pechersk Lavra monastery complex, later becoming the administrative center of Kyiv from the 18th to mid-20th centuries.

The district houses major cultural institutions including the Mystetskyi Arsenal Museum Complex, Mariinskyi Palace, and multiple theaters that shape the artistic landscape of Kyiv.

The area connects to other parts of Kyiv through multiple metro stations, bus routes, and contains essential services including banks, shopping centers, and medical facilities.
