Zolota Kulia is the only nightclub in the city. The locals often call this two-storey bar «Little Sphere» or simply «Bomb».
The club has little space and bad air-conditioning, though. No problem for smokers, but a big one for non-smokers like me.
You can come here to have a pint of beer, to listen to music and to meet new people. The second floor is a dancing hall, although the dancing floor is quite small.
Dress Code: casual

Kovel is not just a railway station between Warsaw and Kiev.
The distance to those two cities is about the same - about nine hours by train.
I took a night train to Kiev (Lviv-Kiev) and arrived to Kiev at about 10 a.m., which gave me some time for exploring the city.
Lviv is not far from Kovel: just five hours by train.
If you wish to go to Crimea, it's 25 hours by train from Kovel.
The direct train - Kovel-Luhansk - to the Far East of Ukraine - where I live takes two nights...
I passed Kovel on my way to Berlin from Kiev.
There are also bus routes that connect Kovel with the regional center - Lutsk.
You can also take a bus to Kiev, Warsaw, Lublin and other big and small towns and cities...

This is a very busy place, especially on weekends. There is a farmers’ market and you can also do shopping at numerous kiosks and shops located around the square.
However, the city forum says the market should be removed from the railway station square where there is not enough space for passengers, to say nothing of street vendors.
Another place to go shopping in a local atmosphere is the Central Market at 2 Brest Street.
What to buy: There are also ten supermarkets and shopping malls in the city,
among them “Hash kray” (“Our Land”) (10 Hrushevsky Street)
and “Veres” (79 Hrushevsky Street) where I was –
very attracting buildings, good choice of goods.
