1-2 of May – are state holidays in Ukraine. It is International Workers’ Day, which we celebrate by going out and having rest. Younger locals may call it “Kiev liberation Day” or “Bank holidays” – which is misleading…

while have some reason. Kiev is empied after hugh traffic jams directing out: there are next 2 holidays (8 and 9 th of May that are genuine “WWII liberation Day”) . So majority manages to escape work and city from 30 of A[ril till 10th of May.

Big board with the Ad “Business Imigration to the USA”,

Not this time: for this traffic flows out of city for picnics.
