Kyiv Safety - How to Find the Nearest Shelter?

[CooperUbaldo]

Hi! I’m planning a trip to Kyiv and I understand the current situation, so I want to be prepared. I’ve read that during air raid alerts you should go to a shelter, but I’m not sure how to quickly find one nearby. Is there a map or any reliable way to locate shelters in the city?

Hey! Yes, that’s a really important thing to know. Kyiv has thousands of shelters, including metro stations and underground spaces. The easiest way is to use a kyiv shelter map, where you can quickly find the nearest location based on where you are. I found it through VisitKyiv, they explain how it works and it’s super helpful for staying prepared while in the city.
