Podil Raion, Administrative district in Kyiv, Ukraine

Podil Raion extends over 34 square kilometers in the northwestern part of Kyiv, encompassing residential areas, commercial zones, and industrial sectors.

The district, established in 1921, emerged from an ancient trading settlement that functioned as the primary commercial center of medieval Kyiv.

The National University of Kyiv-Mohyla Academy, Contract Square, and the Ukrainian National Chernobyl Museum contribute to the educational and cultural landscape.

Three metro stations on the Obolonsko-Teremkivska Line connect the district, while the Kyiv Funicular provides access to the upper parts of the city.

The district preserves neighborhoods named after traditional craftsmen, including Dehtyari for tar workers, Honchari for potters, and Kozhemyaki for leather makers.
