ЗОЛОТЫЕ ВОРОТА

There is a three minute audio describing the history of Kyiv’s Golden Gates and the story of the reconstruction of this important visitor attraction. It is now listed as a UNESCO heritage site and houses a museum. Although originally built of stone, not gold, a church was built in front of the Gates, with a gold cupola and there were beautiful mosaics and decorations. The audio is followed by a transcript and vocabulary. There are three exercises for students to assess their knowledge of cases.
