We invite you to take a tour of the underground part of the most famous of Kyiv's small rivers, the Lybed. The largest of Kyiv's sewers is waiting for us. This gigantic structure was built as part of the construction of the access road to the South Bridge. Once upon a time, there was a small village of Saperna Slobidka, where chickens grazed and pigs bathed in the mud... Now multi-ton trucks and expensive foreign cars are rushing by. But nearby, as it has been for a hundred years, there is the ominous Bald Mountain, still undeveloped. The scale of the gloomy dungeon of the chronicle Lybid is impressive, with powerful vaults and columns, among which water is raging. During the tour, we will not limit ourselves to the Lybid alone - we will look into its tributaries Orivakhovatka and Buslivka. You will see how the small river Zhyvets flows. You will learn where the protected fragment of the Lybid is located, recognized as a natural monument of local importance.
