If you're into history, don’t miss the nearby Museum of the Great Patriotic War. The entry ticket is pretty cheap and it adds so much to your experience.
Bring some water and snacks. There aren’t many facilities around the monument, and you might need a break after all the walking.
Monument to King Danil Galitsky
Monument to Duke de Richelieu
Monument to Adam Mitskevich
Don't forget to bring some snacks or a small drink. There aren't many kiosks nearby, and finding a café can take a while. I had to wander a bit before I found a place!
If you're planning to visit in the summer, try to go around 8 AM to beat the crowds. It’s a perfect time for those early morning photos without too many people around. Trust me, it makes a huge difference!
Monument to Taras Shevchenko
I suggest visiting the monument early in the morning, around 8 AM, to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere. It gets busy later in the day, so a quiet moment feels special.
My advice is to bring a small picnic and enjoy it at the nearby park. There are some nice benches, and it's a chill spot to relax after checking out the monument.
I recommend taking a stroll around the surrounding area—there are some cool little cafes nearby where you can grab a coffee without breaking the bank. Trust me, it’s worth it!
Monument to Ilf and Petrov "12th chair"
Monument to Catherine II
I suggest looking for free events or performances happening nearby, especially in summer. We stumbled upon some local musicians, and it was a delightful surprise to enjoy some cool tunes while chilling by the monument!
