Maybe the best planes museum you will ever be to. Enjoy. You are going to see the most popular USSR passenger planes: IL-86, IL-62, TU-134, the famous first soviet jet TU-104 and many others. All comes in original "Aeroflot" paintings. Some of them are open to enter (for free), check the website. Though have to note, museum is visibly lacking funds for maintenance. Looks like it was left in eighties to this day. Bit it is an advantage for you in some way, you can feel it "untouched".

Open air aviation museum with good collection of aircrafts and helicopters. In some of them it is possible to get inside. Price of ticket for grown-ups 100UAH, children 65UAH. Highly recommended for a visit.

Heaven for any Aviation Gig. Bring 1,5-2hours time. Lots of exhibits and view on operati g runway next door. Some planes you can visit from the inside. Advice for owner: Install wifi for guests,so they can make free posts and Advertisement fot you,so visitor numbers are going up also from foreigners...i had a bit of hard time going back to City Center with Uber (4Ubers cancelled/too outside and too much traffic & plus bad cellphone reception) But nevertheless gorgeous museum Definetly worth visiting and supporting it! Thank you. Service staff friendly (very little English though)

Exciting exposition, vast variety of aircrafts, engines models, missiles and bombs, mostly open-air, so good for Covid times. Descriptions are kind of poor but Wikipedia helps.

Walls of Constantinople

The Walls of Constantinople are a series of defensive stone walls that have surrounded and protected the city of Constantinople (today Istanbul) since its founding as the new capital of the Roman Empire by Constantine the Great. With numerous additions and modifications during their history, they were the last great fortification system of antiquity, and one of the most complex and elaborate systems ever built. They were also the largest and strongest fortification in both the ancient and medieval world.

Initially built by Constantine the Great, the walls surrounded the new city on all sides, protecting it against attack from both sea and land. As the city grew, the famous double line of the Theodosian Walls was built in the 5th century. Although the other sections of the walls were less elaborate, they were, when well-manned, almost impregnable for any medieval besieger.
