Understand

Dnipro, formerly known as Dnipropetrovsk but renamed during the process of de-communization after the most recent Maidan, offers a unique glimpse into Ukraine's industrial heart. As a prominent industrial center in the Soviet Union, foreigners were once prohibited from visiting without official permission until the 1990s. Despite its industrial nature, the city is generally well-maintained and provides an intriguing perspective on the real working life in Ukraine. While Dnipro faces challenges of heavy pollution, it remains a captivating destination that sheds light on the country's manufacturing prowess and resilience.
