The fountain season has begun in Kyiv
The fountain season has officially begun in the capital’s parks and public gardens and is expected to last until mid-October, depending on weather conditions.
This was reported by the Department of Environmental Protection and Climate Change Adaptation.
In total, 27 fountains will be operating in various districts of Kyiv this year, providing residents with a comfortable respite from the summer heat.
District municipal enterprises responsible for maintaining green spaces have prepared locations throughout the capital.
The Shevchenkivskyi district will traditionally feature the largest number of fountains, with three fountains set to be launched in Taras Shevchenko Park and two on Volodymyrska Hill.
Popular water features will also resume operation in Zolotovoritsky, Munich, Lithuanian, and Literary Squares, as well as near the Shevchenkivskyi District State Administration building.
Cooling spots will also be operational in other administrative districts of the city. In the Podilskyi District, fountains will be launched in the squares named after Petro Sahaidachnyi and Hryhorii Skovoroda, on Shchekavytska Square, and in Kurenivskyi Park.
Residents of Darnytsia will be able to relax near the iconic “Pear” in Poznyaki Park and visit the Park of Partisan Glory. In Obolon, water features will open at 6 Obolonska Square and in the famous “Garden of Stones” on Volodymyr Ivasyuk Avenue.
In the Dniprovskyi district, fountains will resume operation in Peremoha and Aurora parks, and in the Desnianskyi district—in the Vysotsky-Bykov Square. Residents of Holosiivskyi will be able to visit the renovated playground on Ivan Fedorov Street.
In the Pecherskyi district, the square on Architect Gorodetskyi Street will offer a cool respite, and in the Sviatoshynskyi district—the “Sovki” Park.
The operating schedule for the capital’s fountains will vary depending on the specific location.
