Софійська площа унікальна найдавніша пам'ятка архітектури Києва, його візитна картка. За переказами, на місці Софійській площі, яка була полем поблизу міських стін, Ярослав Мудрий 1036 року розгромив печенігів, після чого побудував на цьому місці Собор святої Софії, а площа перед ним назвав Софійській. На Софійській площі розташована дзвіниця Софійського собору і пам'ятник Богдану Хмельницькому. Щороку на Софіївській площі встановлюють вертеп - традиційний ляльковий театр і святкують Різдво. А на Новий рік площа стає центром народних гулянь і виступів фольклорних ансамблів. Прекрасна панорама центру Києва відкривається з оглядового майданчика Софійського собору, особливо красиво у вечірній час.

небольшая уютная площадь недалеко от Крещатика и Золотых Ворот. Богдан Хмельницкий на фоне колокольни Софийского собора смотрится эффектно. Отсюда лучше всего продолжить путь к Михайловскому собору.

Плитка на площі давно розбита, спідкнутися і розбитися самому дуже просто
