            At the Friendship of Nations Arch monument in Kyiv there is this incredible glass floored terrace over the trees looking out over the city. Unfortunately the authorise have decided the glass floor isn’t safe and so you have to keep to the paved sections.

An acrobat was performing incredible moves while balancing on the balustrade. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to get any photographs of him performing before the police, politely but firmly, told him to stop. They lead him away from the glass-floored terrace area and later he was performing his tricks in a much safer (but less spectacular!!) area under the monument.
