Where is Kiev, and is it safe there?
Kiev is becoming a very popular city for tourism and it is a mere 3.5 hour flight away from Heathrow airport in the UK. Kiev is the capital city of Independent Ukraine. In December 2004 you may have seen the Orange Revolution reported on the news. This passed quickly and was considered trouble free by the press. Not long after that, the European Song Contest was held in Kiev, which was televised around the world. For more information about Ukraine, or any other destination, visit www.fco.gov.
