Kiev Independence Square at night


I took these pictures last night while we were visiting Independence Square in downtown Kiev. It was a beautiful evening and thousands of people were outside enjoying the weather. I've been amazed at the number of people who are outside and moving around at any given time of the day. The subway metro system is FULL of people almost anytime we have used it. It's a fascinating system that runs at least 600-800 feet under the ground. It takes several minutes just to ride the escalators down to the entry point for the trains. The trains also run in each direction constantly. The most we've had to wait for a train is less than 2 minutes. They really know how to move people around the city!
