Where to go and what to see in the city of Kiev, the capital of Ukraine. I invite you to an interesting excursion to interesting places of the city. Monument to warriors-motorists and road workers in Kiev.
Hello my dear friends. There are a lot of interesting places and sights in my city. And I tell you about them so that you can get acquainted with the beautiful capital of Ukraine. Today I want to tell you about an interesting monument to warriors-motorists and road builders of Kiev. Let me invite you to an exciting excursion.
The monument is a real ZIS-5 car from the front of the Great Patriotic War. This monument is located on Moscow Square in Kiev, at the address: Goloseevsky Avenue, 44. This monument was erected in 1985. The numbers on the car are symbolic "VO 14-18". VO - means "Great Patriotic, and the numbers 14-18 mean 1418 days the war lasted.
This military vehicle was found in 1970 in one of the factories. It turns out that after the war this machine still worked. The weight of the car is three tons. On the pedestal the car stopped by himself. It is said that if now this car is refueled with gasoline, then it will go. That's such a wonder-monument stands in Kiev.
I hope you liked my story and you are sure to visit this place during your visit to Kiev. Follow me. Our tours continue. Thank you for attention.

We have a similar monument near the bus station in Sumy, but ours is GAZ-AA (полуторка), not ZIS-5. It was two of the most popular and massive vehicles in the USSR during the great Patriotic war.
Дуже цікаво)) Теж "на ходу" ще?))
