The Kharkiv architecture manual is a digital guide to the city, which is famous for its modernist architecture. The application has a handy map with objects indicated on it and gathered into routes complemented by text descriptions and detailed information. Unique author's audio guides in Ukrainian and English will accompany you during a virtual or real journey. While exploring the architecture of the buildings, you’ll also find rare archival images, recent professional photography, and 3D models that show what these objects were like throughout the 20th century and their current state during the war. If you’ve been dreaming of visiting Kharkiv for a long time and can't wait to come to this peaceful Ukrainian city, this app will help you prepare for your journey.
