Verkhovna Rada building
Verkhovna Rada building, Parliament building in Pechersk district, Kyiv, Ukraine.
The Verkhovna Rada building stands three floors high with a glass dome measuring 16 meters in diameter above the main session hall.
Architect Volodymyr Zabolotnyi designed this legislative structure in 1939, earning the State Prize for the project the following year.
The building features decorative elements including statues representing workers, peasants, and intellectuals, along with a prominent Ukrainian trident at the entrance.
