If it wasn't for that cluster of buildings on the right side of the photo, you'd be hard-pressed to believe a city was anywhere nearby. But in this case, not only is a city nearby, this photo was taken in the heart of Kiev. Of course, most of Kiev is more densely built-up than what you see here, but Kiev is a very liveable city, with many parks and open spaces (though I'm sure there a many people who would like to change that, for a piece of the action, that is).
This is the view from the base of Rodina Mat, the "Mother Motherland" statue in Kiev. The gold-domed buildings are part of the Kiev Pechersk Lavra complex, and in the bottom right are sculptures on the grounds of the Museum of the Great Patriotic War.
