About this audio guide
This guide to Hydropark in Kyiv follows a cybernetics mathematician named Yuri Kuk, who in the late 1960s looked at a new riverside playground on the Dnipro islands and decided it needed something besides card games. It takes you among the trees, the scavenged Soviet metal and the regulars who turn up in every season. Best heard standing inside the open-air gym, within earshot of the river.
