A must-visit for anyone in Kyiv, Zhytniy Rynok (“Rye Market”) holds a special place in the city’s history. It opened as the largest indoor market in Europe in 1980, remarkably standing on the very ground of an open-air market dating back to the time of the Kyivan Rus’.You’ll find the freshest Ukrainian produce, unique sweets, local wines, and handmade crafts here. This bustling market perfectly embodies Ukraine’s deep love for agriculture and its vital role as a producer of diverse goods.
