Park Lenin
Hard to miss the park since there is a big Lenin Monument at the entrance.A small park with a government building in the middle.

There is a tiny little cafe in the middle. We sat there...

Unremarkable
I asked in my hotel for a recommendation on a nearby bar and was directed to this around 5 mins away. Its pleasantly enough decorated inside.They have Fashion tv on the television if that is your thing. Its Western prices on the food / wine menu.When I was there late on a Summer Tuesday evening there was only a handful of people in.

Irish pub
cked away in Ukraine of all places, the Shamrock Irish Pub is a veritable bastion of the creme of the Irish tradition. We dare to think that it’s quite a special watering hole with a certain flair all of its own. What really sets it apart from a whole slew of other drinking establishments out there is the fact that it was originally set up as...

Dnipropetrovsk Nightlife
-
There are a lot of cafes, bars etc beside the river. If you go to where the central bridge is across the river and face down stream there's a whole bunch of places dotted along there for a mile or so, maybe more. They are open in the Summer at least. I can't comment on what happens there in Winter. There was also plenty of people strolling along pleasantly enjoying themselves when I was there yesterday evening.
After sunset its a pretty nice view across the river.more

Dnipropetrovsk Warnings and Dangers
-
Pick Pockets
In the main I have found the Ukrainians to be a generous and honest people. However, every profession, race, creed or country still has it's villains. My warning is to take care of your wallet or purse especially on the trolley buses and especially when they are full (standing room only). Packed in like sardines even my Ukrainian wife had her purse...

Dnipropetrovsk What to Pack
-
Luggage and bags: Depending upon the time of year you travel will depend on warm or cold weather clothes. Cold weather clothes being much bulkier and heavier beware of the old fashioned and out of date (in my opinion) 20 - 25 Kg baggage allowance.
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: These are not slovenly people. They are very modern, trendy and chique. If you don't want to stick out like a sore thumb or appear like a clown or a tramp, dress well at all times. Smart casual for everyday and formal (suite & tie) for theatres restaurants etc.
Toiletries and Medical Supplies: As all things are written in a language you probably won't understand, like milk being called molakov in an opaque plastic bag sometimes, takes necessary toiletries and medical supplies with you. Especially medical supplies. They can be expensive out there.
Photo Equipment: Film is cheap.
Miscellaneous: Take western chocolates if you are visiting female friends or relatives. The likes of Quality Street or Roses you wont find out there so these will be very much appreciated.

And of course you get the beautiful view of the river and the Left Bank.Starting from the Monestery Island Bridge and running to Hotel Parus (which is dead) is 2 mi, so there back is a good 4...

Dnipropetrovsk - city of opportunities
Hello,I can't agree with previous post. First of all because Kharkiv is quite wide-spread not well organized city and mostly covered by small private houses, so when you first arrive there you feel as if you are in some kind of giant village. City of students - a lot of universities there, many "moderate" but no "mature" places to visit. Good point...
