Description

<p><br />

A view of Khreshchatyk street from<br />

the Tsarska square - Place Royale (early twentieth century). On the right one can<br />

see cabs waiting for passengers near the Yevropeiska<br />

hotel; in the<br />

middle, there is an early built tram. Though one can see electric<br />

posts between them, which are to indicate the electrification of the<br />

tram, the latter’s construction is more in line with early versions<br />

of the horse and steam tram.</p><p>Olga Martyniuk</p>
