Ukraine is a large country in Eastern Europe, famous for its Orthodox churches, Black Sea resorts and forested mountains. In Kyiv, the capital of the country, there is the St. Sophia Cathedral, decorated with golden domes, 11th-century mosaics and frescoes. Above the Dnieper River rises the Kiev-Pechersk Lavra Monastery, a place of pilgrimage for many Orthodox Christians. Religious relics are kept in her sketes, and the mummified remains of Orthodox monks are kept in the catacombs.
