Tramway to the woods Kyiv
Tramway route
This is an amazing tramway route! You hop on at the center of Podol district right beside Kontraktova Square Metro station and tram 12 takes you to a small satellite village near Kyiv called Puscha Voditsa. This is more like a resort so there is a park and a lake and plenty of small hotels and motels around.
The most interesting thing about it is that a part of the tram's route goes through a real forest! And if feels weird and cool that several minutes ago you were at a city center and now you're going through the woods on a public transport just like in some fairy tale.
There also is a party train on the route. Designed like a cafe inside with tables and a small kitchen at the back of vehicle. It can fit around 30 people I guess. You can book it and go for a picnic in the park and back, starting your celebration on the way! Lots of fun!
Warning: no toilet inside ;).
