Bookstore Ye
Kyiv

This bookstore is frequented by local literature-lovers, as the variety of books is quite impressive – it even includes a foreign-language section, and lectures and recitals are often hosted as well. You can also exchange books, so just feel free to ask the staff about "bookcrossing".
Shopping
Looking at the variety of shops and department stores in the streets of Kyiv makes it hard to believe that just a couple of decades ago, shopping was practically non-existent. Today, you can find anything and everything in the fashion-conscious Ukrainian capital: while TsUM department store is known as "Kyiv’s Harrods" and the posh Mandarin Plaza for its moneyed shop, Dream Town is more down to earth. Markets, bookstores and wine boutiques fill the bustling Ukrainian capital and they will keep you busy for days on end, if you just let them.
