This is the Golden Gate

I'm not really sure what it is though. I suppose I should know more. It's only a few blocks from our house and it's, I believe, one of the original entrances to the ancient city of Kyiv. It was build somewhere around 1037 (or so Wikipedia says). I guess there was a moat nearby at one time. Maybe when all the snow melts, we'll be able to see it. There are some statues around and a metro stop right across the street. It seems a little less historic with all the hustle and bustle of the city happening around it.
