Tourism for blind people – finally in Kiev
Nearly six month ago I spoke with members of one of the centers of education for the blind and visually impaired people. They told us about their touristic attempts in the cities of Ukraine. That’s when I once again confirmed the very simple truth, which I tell my team everyday: “Society doesn’t care about people with disabilities. If we won’t, nobody will.”
However, there are some enthusiasts in Kiev who also decided to help them by opening a pedestrian travel route for the blind and visually impaired people. The route passes near Vladimir’s Hill, in The Park of Glory, Landscape alley, near The Pedestrian Bridge and Friendship of Nations Arch. There also will be installed special signs describing the landscape in Braille.
