Kyiv in Miniature

Kyiv in Miniature, Miniature park in Hidropark, Kyiv, Ukraine.

Kyiv in Miniature is a miniature park on Hidropark Island featuring approximately 48 detailed architectural models at 1:33 scale. The models showcase important buildings and structures from across the capital city.

The idea for the park dates from 2000, and construction took four years before the site opened on 23 June 2006 in Hidropark. In 2013 the collection was expanded with buildings from elsewhere in Ukraine, including the Odesa Opera Theatre, the Swallow's Nest and the Vorontsov Palace in Alupka, and the complex was renamed the Ukraine in Miniature museum.

The collection displays reproductions of the city's landmarks such as Independence Square and Saint Sophia Cathedral. These models help visitors understand Kyiv's architectural identity in a playful way.

The park lies on Hidropark Island in the Dnieper, and the nearest metro station is Hidropark. The models stand in the open without a canopy, so they are under constant restoration; some may be covered or partly hidden during works. Allow time to walk the 1.8-hectare site.

The mini-Dnipro is crossed by five bridges: Pivnichnyi, Pedestrian, Metro, Paton and Pivdennyi. In the miniature Boryspil airport, five aircraft from different parts of the world have landed. The park's population of 700 residents is constantly growing.
