Mission completed.
1- Kharainkiv should be a backup name for the city. It rained Everyday
I saw two rainbows at the same time.. Pretty strange.
2- Police at the airport cathced me and said he is going to make passport control. During our walk to a control room, he repeatedly told me to call down and don't panic; he said it is just a two minutes standard procedure. During control we chatted a little bit. He learned my occupation and then asked me politely if I can change his 20 Turkish Lira to Grivna. Well I did and didn't ask how he got that 20 Lira (It is around 170 Grivna). He was really polite and knew English as well.
3- There were many Turks in the city. It was a bad idea to visit Kharkiv in a 4 day -holiday marathon. It was apparently obvious that I was not the only Turkish thinking of visiting Kharkiv from Turkey last week.
4- Food: I'm not an enthusiast of local food culture. But I must admit that, Ukrainian kitchen is lack of taste. I want to be wrong about this. Cause I only experienced food in Stargorod, Churrasco, Karavan (Ozbek restaurant in Kharkiv) and a non-branded hamburger store in French shopping mall (4 main meals for 4 days).
We stayed at the hotel for the 4th night and had a delicious spagetti at the hotel's restaurant, after struggling about the ingredients in the meatballs. Yes we Turkish people do not eat pork at all. Almost every restaurant knows this and warns you. That's a very nice approach.
5- Communication is really a problem. Please learn English as much as you can. I could only drink very black, very dark coffee during my stay. Because it was the only alternative I can describe to the waiters or waitresses. I quit trying different coffees when I drank a cold coffee instead of an ordinary cappuccino.
6- Taxi drivers are all source of great help. They even offer more when they learn that the customer sitting in the back seat is Turkish. They almost try to offer every kind of services if you understand what I mean. That's a strange but true reputation of Turkish people visiting Kharkiv.
7- Toooo many beautiful girls everywhere. In the streets, in shopping malls, in markets, restaurants, even in that very huge Bazaar. Just sit somewhere and watch the environmental beauty. They even don't know or realize that you are there. Really. How can this be possible? And also too many handsome boys. What are you eating and drinking guys? What kind of DNA you all have?
8- The streets, especially the ones with several holes, mud, cracks etc. They are in gerenal known as the capillary of a city. Kharkiv's capillary shows that the city has many varicose veins. So as the buildings as can be seen from outside. They are pretty exciting for scene lovers for capturing the moments. I'm sure it's not the same for the local people.
10- Night life: We went to Radmir, Bolero and a third place which was suitable only for men (I don't want to give the name of the place for +18 reasons). That third place was full of Turks, may be 90%. Radmir and Bolero. They both shout out that "do not finish your observations and give your final decision about the city of Kharkiv untill you live the atmosphere in these clubs". Fascinating is the word to describe. You definitely know how to entertain yourselves.
11- Young population means bright future. I saw this future in Kharkiv. I don't know the statistics but there a lot of young people around - and old people as minority. Where were the middle aged people? I couldn't see them. May be next time.
10- For my last observation in this short write-up, I would like to thank to the helpful people of Kharkiv even though many of them did not know English at all. Ice cold faces were turning into hot tea if you aproach friendly with touristic purposes. Thanks a lot.
This 4 day visit costed me around 700 US Dollars including flight and hotel and everything. I had 32 USD when I returned back. I'm planing a second visit for this summer or autumn with a little more budget and little more time.
Please do not hesitate to ask me anything if you plan to visit Istanbul in the future.
