Discover Ukraine with Awesome Ukraine guide

New version of unique Awesome Ukraine guide will come in the market 24 August to mark the anniversary of Ukraine’s independence.

The guide will include chapters about culture, food, history, nature, places, sport and industry and will tell about Ukraine in a unique and sometimes ironic manner.

‘As the title suggests, Awesome Ukraine is more than a guide. Simply put, it is all that is awesome about Ukraine – from national dishes, to historical facts, symbols, mythology, popular culture and much more,’ the authors of the guide say. ‘This book has a highly stylized design and a unique layout with photos spanning the decades. In it you will find explanations as to: why our national symbols are the blue and yellow flag and the tryzub; why Ukrainians are sentimental towards the nightingale, vyshyvanka and salo; why we are proud of Pylyp Orlyk, Serge Lifar, the Klychko brothers and the AN-225 “Mriya” airplane; why Kazantyp has attracted young people for years; and why the centre of Europe is located in Zakarpattia Oblast.’

The guide can be pre-ordered here. Discover unique Ukraine!
