Kievan Rus Park

5/51 rating

The Kievan Rus Park is a one-of-a-kind modern project, both for Ukraine and for the whole world, which vividly reflects the culture and history of Ancient Russia. A scientific and cultural center brought to life, like a bridge between the past and the present, which has no analogues. In fact, this is indeed the case. Indeed, when creating the museum-park, historical information about the exact dimensions of all known buildings of the medieval city, namely Detynets of Kyiv of the 5th-13th centuries, was taken as the basis for maximum reliability.

It is important to note that the project itself is not solely an architectural reproduction. It is implemented more like a historical reconstruction. It clearly displays the most diverse aspects of the life of the once capital of Kievan Rus. And so that the modern generation does not get bored and it is really interesting for them to become a part of a distant history, real battles are arranged here, demonstrating the defense of a medieval city, its peaceful everyday life and holidays, traditions, city bustle and life are recreated.

The unusual atmosphere of this place somehow imperceptibly absorbs us, allowing us to feel the spirit of the Middle Ages and get an incomparable, informative and truly bright country rest.

Mounted archery, especially for men, is a very exciting activity.

Even without experience, but under the guidance of an instructor in the equestrian archery club, you will hit the target from the first lesson! Therefore, if physical activity is not contraindicated for you and there is a desire to become a member of the horse archers club, then you are welcome in the ranks of martial art.

Equestrian jousting tournaments

As a rule, we know about jousting tournaments only from the movie and favorite fairy tales. Since the spectacular action is a thing of the distant past and in the era of high technology, this sport has no place in our modern life. But not in the Kievan Rus park. Here, equestrian clashes, as once the key competition in any jousting tournament, have returned and acquired their significance, in the role of living history. Therefore, if you have a desire to become a part of this history, then the Princely stable of Ancient Kyiv is waiting for you to train.
