Dnipro was the first place I visited in Ukraine and I've been back there 3 times. It's certainly not dodgy. One of the things I like about Ukraine is the variety ... each city has its unique feeling and attractions and the likes of Lviv, Kyiv, Odessa, Kharkiv, etc all have their own charms. Dnipro is worth a visit. Plenty things to see and visit. 🙂🇺🇦👍
Kenny I would agree with you especially about Dnipro where I made many friends there over the 5 year period I stayed there, certainly nothing dodgy at all!!
American with good memories of Dnipro - skiing at Lavina, best ginger tea at Double Decker, Old Pal, Puzata Hata, Tsunami. Kind and helpful people despite my beginner Russian Skills.
Dnipro is a fantastic city and I recommend anyone to visit. It was a closed city during Soviet times so maybe it has been a little slow to react to the development of tourism but there are some interesting and beautiful places here as well as a huge amount of Soviet buildings and artefacts which helps to make it such a fascinating place for a foreigner to visit and to live in.
Yeaah, I really love this city! I'm glad, that it's easy for me to go there, because I live in a nearby region. But do you really like Soviet buildings? Oh, then, welcome to the East of Ukraine! We have a lot of gloomy, boring and ugly Soviet "boxes" here. =D
@@mariyabronnik I understand that if you have lived here all your life, especially those who have lived under Soviet rule, then it's something you want to escape from, but to me, even living amongst those huge grey Soviet-built apartment blocks is interesting and discovering an old Soviet mosaic or memorial is exciting. For me, Ukraine is an endlessly fascinating country for many reasons.
@@DistortionGallery excuse me... I was just surprised, that someone likes "khrushchevki" and our country as a whole. Especially from another country. (you are from GB, right?) A lot of people hate our country because of corruption, poverty (yes, we are poor, but it doesn't mean, that we are Africa, as someone says, haha), because of stupid stereotypes and... because of the ugly "khrushchevki". By the way, I read, that soon, the "khrushchevki" will be restored/rebuilt. But I think, that our government will again steal money...and will not restore anything.=D Of course, I hate the USSR. It killed our elite, our patriots, our artists and writers - the future of our country. It wanted to destroy Ukrainian language and identity of Ukrainian nation. It robbed my people, including my family. My relatives told me, that they couldn't even taste butter in USSR. Although once my family was prosperous, it earned everything by itself. All post-Soviet countries are poor, you know.(except for the Baltic. Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia are brave, they broke out of this sludge and became normal European countries) And sorry for mistakes.
@@mariyabronnik Yes, I'm from England where life is very different of course. In Britain there is still a lot of interest in Russia and the former Soviet Union countries, especially amongst older people like myself who lived through those times, although from a safe distance! )) But there is much more to Ukraine than being a FSU country. It has enormous potential in terms of people and resources and because of its geographical position and its history, it is the most important country in Europe. Ukraine has fought hard for its independence and has paid a terrible price but we all hope that things will improve.
@@DistortionGallery yes, I also hope, that the situation will improve. But we have little chance. First, this is because of the pro-Russian parties in our country. There are a lot of them and they are destroying our country from the inside. They don't allow the adoption of normal laws, that could bring us closer to Europe. (oh course, not geographically, haha. Geographically, we are always Europe, Central-Eastern). Second, corruption and oligarchy are probably our biggest and most embarrassing problems, because of which our economy is "dirty". Oh, and the next one is Russia. They will never let us go. They think, that we are their poor colony without own culture, language and history. They have several versions of how we appeared - first, we were made in the Austrian General Staff, second - Lenin made us, third - we appeared in the 90s, when Poles and Russians mixed. Oh, and yes, they also say, that we are the servants of "Gayrope" and "Anglo-Saxon countries." (this is "Pendossia" (America) and, of course, the United Kingdom). Yeah, I know, it sounds crazy.
I was born there in 95' - left in 2002, been back several times during the summers and still have family there. The city saw a pretty massive improvement after 2010. Before that, you'd see a lot of homeless people, many even without shoes. You'd see packs of stray dogs, and the city definitely had a lot more crime.
There was only one thing you did'nt compare and that is the difference between the people in Dnipor and Kiev. I've been to Ukraine 26 times, over 9 years and I find the people in Dnipor far more friendly.
I was there very first time in 2010, it wasn't that modern or improved like now, but I liked the city. It wasn't that Impressive but recently I was in Tomsk Russia and I think Dnipro was far better.
I visited Dnipro in Jan 2019, which is probably one of the worst times of year to do so, but still enjoyed it. While I'd spent the rest of my time in Kyiv, I wanted to experience Ukraine outside the capital as well, and took the overnight train down one night and then back the next. I spent the day exploring the city on foot, including the core downtown on the south of the Dnieper, Monastery Island & beach, the Industrial district on the north bank of the river, and the Samarskyi district to the east. I never felt unsafe. Absolutely zero tourist scammers to avoid. (Dnipro, January, need I say more) Everyone happy to speak in Russian by default, which really cut down on the awkwardness of me being unsure if I just couldn't understand them or if they were speaking Ukrainian that I struggled with in Kyiv. I will happily return and spend more time there... in the summer. :) My travels in Ukraine were much more oriented toward finding a lovely Soviet sink to spend time with than clubbing and bars, so other viewers of this channel may find less of their interests in Dnipro than I did.
Tourist scammers maybe not but I had a more than a couple of dodgy incidents there so not for a naive newbie to Ukraine for sure 😉 If you’re more into Soviet sinks than Dnipro’s hotties then Bald and Bankrupt is the channel for you 🤣👍🏻
Well Horse. It's your Polish speaking Irish viewer in Ukraine again. Look lad, this one popped up in me feed prob cos I was googling Dnipro a bit of late, I was there at the weekend. It's only dodgy if you're afraid of your own shadow. Kharkiv itself, where I am based for another 5 weeks, is quite safe. Dnipro was even safer, if anything had less variety of nightlife probably due to the economic pressures of the last 2 years. There were just 4 or 5 nightclubs, discos, open in the whole city on Saturday night, but I was able to enter with my Czech vaccine card(thank God I kept that in me wallet, cos me certificate was in the hotel and the internet didn't work in the club's building). The club complex in Sfera wasn't great but let's say witha few drinks you could enjoy it in an old school way. Before that and afterwards again, I enjoyed Karaoke as ever, singing in my bad Russian with Polish pronunciation. Any solo male traveler can definitely have a good time. Honestly women are probably just afraid of it due to its reputation. It was EXTREMELY safe during my 2 days there. I'll be in Krasnograd this weekend in Kharkiv Oblast. I stopped there twice, on the way to and fro Kharkiv by bus, so on the opposite side, I look forward to some interesting small town tourism this weekend after my Ukrainian language class on Saturday. Btw the roads ain't that bad between Kharkiv to Dnipro, not exactly as bad as southern Ukrainian or Moldovan road. Definitely go to CASTA restaurant pub in Dinpro for GREAT KURWA PIWO/PIWECZKO z Dniprą/Ukrainą and CHEAP but great Woks/burgers. Recommended by all my Dnipro friends too. You can have an amazing meal and drink for under a fiver
I lived in Dnipro for more than 5 years. It's definitely not as dodgy as this person is making it out to be. Yes, you'll run into some dodgy parts of town, but that's true of any city in Ukraine (or the world for that matter). It's a shame you didn't bother filming anything outside of the very center, nor did you get much of the parks. Shevchenko Park is nice and very large, and Monastery Island is probably the nicest out of them all. For those closer to the Metro line, Globy Park also isn't that bad. They're all great places to go for walks. By the way, the Metro is currently being expanded, as it is now though it's pretty much useless, but I'm sure it'll get a lot more use once the expansion is complete.
hi Tim, what is it like to live there on €500 per month ( rent, food, power and city transport pass ?) I am thinking of buying a small Apartment in Dnipro area, Odessa or Kharkiv as i am in the Transport trucking and was wanting to know if this is a good area for running Trucks around Ukraine ? Hope you see this....Regards.....Abe ( uk )
@@abeonthehill166 €500 would probably be sufficient for a small town just outside of a big city. Personally I pulled in between $500 - $1000 a month and lived pretty well. As far as trucking goes, I wouldn't recommend it. The roads there range from bad to absolutely freaking terrible.
@@saurondp ....thanks Tim, i will likely have to look at Kharkiv or Odessa as my job is the Trucking Business and it is what i want to stay in if i move to Ukraine for a few years ; i must focus on the Places with a good Trucking industry .
Very nice place, Menorah Center. The history of the Jews in Ukraine goes back over a thousand years. Jewish communities have existed in the territory of Ukraine from the time of the Kievan Rus'.
Ok I'm not gonna lie, your comment at the end hit home a bit, but at least 6 people on Saturday night spoke Polish to me, so I guess as I can pass for a Pole, and understand more of Ukrainian cos of that when my Russian lets me down, it makes me almost street wise, definitely less likely to have problems at closing time. Again though, if you speak a slavic language and understand the basics of the local lingo, I think Dnipro is easy to go to, I will try to go back before my Moldovan trip. I definitely forget what it is like to be a tourist expecting people to speak English though. Polski surzhik goes a long way. Probably we are lucky as western Europeans, but again, very little anti social behaviour anywhere in Ukraine, actually you get more problems in places like Ostrava or Kraków on weekends than any of the 5 or 6 Ukrainian cities I have spent time in so far. Thanks again for this video. Definitely great to get an Irish perspective rather than Ben the Brit fights hobos and calls locals gopniks style crap. Probably not a place for someone shy or who only wants to speak English all the time, but that's what makes it fun kurwa, shlondra.
I'm a resident of Dnipro (Dnipropetrovs'k in the USSR, Katerynoslav in the empire) and my family has been here since 1890, it's a very beautiful city and the heart of Ukraine, the central city. You just need to love and work hard for Dnipro, a city that can give you all. WE FIGHT FOR THIS CITY IN 1941 (Against nazi) and since 2014(against non-human rusia orcs), THIS IS UKRANIAN CITY AND WE ALWAYS CONSIDER THAT WE ARE UKRANIANS! NOT rusia creatures. CALGARY and Dnipro are very similar. Düsseldorf and Dnipro are also very similar. Learn the history of this city and build it up. A LOT OF TALENTED PEOPLE ARE FROM HERE, IT'S A CRADLE.

I think you described the city well. I just drove through there once, and thought it seemed very, soviet like. I was surprised to see a magnificent soccer stadium In America, I know a man who immigrated from that city. He is definitely, pro Russian. He has no interest, in ever returning there, however.
well, the city is changing, the parks got better and the outdoor playgrounds for kids are done well in every neighborhood, which I find super nice, of course the city would be soviet like for some decades
hey there, much appreciated your video about my city, but COME ON there are plenty of things to see and say about Dnipro, the Ukrainian girl could support and say at least something nice or what for she is on this video than?
50 years..That's the number of years it's taking for the subway to be completed. It's a very telling # as people are forced to take yellow buses. mashrutkas... Very high rents for very normal salaries and crappy quality.... When the cat is gone the oligarchs play... And Heavy metal air pollution.. if you ,dont have asthma, you will get it within a year or 2...
Come on bro, you didn't show any of the city, but just made this video to say it's dodgy? It's a big industrial city, so depending on where you go it does look rusty, but I swear I've seen and experienced more violence and crime in Birmingham, Glasgow and Manchester... And that was when it actually WAS dodgy, back in 2003-4. So I wouldn't say it's dodgy at least by UK standards.
Outside of the newly renovated center, it's dodgy 100% ... I'm still optimistic about the city's future though ... it's heading in the right direction ... I plan to make a followup vlog at the end of the summer or early autumn there 👍🏻
@@ConorClyneNewEurope I've lived there until I was 10 and then for a year between 2003-4 before returning to the UK. After essentially becoming a fully functioning adult in the UK it was a huge culture shock to go back there, so I kind of spent the first 4 months literally not leaving the house. But after a while I realised it just... looks bad. lmao Literally NOTHING ever happened to me, even though I dressed eccentric, had strange haircuts and hung out with Japanese / Korean friends I brought with me. I've mugged / attacked by drunk people in the UK more than I have in Dnipro. The only 2-3 scary experiences I had in Ukraine was in Luhansk in 1999, some village middle of the night on the way to Crimea and Kiev station late at night in 2007. I'm not sure what qualifies as dodgy...? The only place I've been where everything looks nice and nothing ever happens is Japan. Everywhere else, you need to pay attention.
Let's say it's more of a man's town for going out. I didn't see many women alone, I guess this reputation of Dnipro being working class and a bit dodgy is still there, but FFS you have been to Dublin on a weekend lad, Dnipro IS safe!
you are such a philistine,"old school " the good thing about Ukraine is that it was designed by the soviet union ,wide tree lined streets big yards for apartment blocks and monuments and statues, modernizing Ukraine is an abomination
I wonder whether antisemitism plays a roll in the widespread Ukrainian disdain for Dnipro. The responsibility of Ukrainian pro Nazi nationalists in contributing to the horrors of the Holocaust in the region is a subject that seems to be studiously avoided, including by you.
What the hell? Many Ukrainians love Dnipro. And our country not antisemitic! Jews live among us, they are ordinary citizens of Ukraine. By the way, our president is Jewish and everyone knows this...

Let's say it's more of a man's town for going out. I didn't see many women alone, I guess this reputation of Dnipro being working class and a bit dodgy is still there, but FFS you have been to Dublin on a weekend lad, Dnipro IS safe!
More night club scenes. Lets see the women!! ; )
Factory town
That music sucks! But good video with important information. But this loud music sucks. Why would you do it, Irish gopnik?
LOL 😂

funny guy
you are such a philistine,"old school " the good thing about Ukraine is that it was designed by the soviet union ,wide tree lined streets big yards for apartment blocks and monuments and statues, modernizing Ukraine is an abomination
I wonder whether antisemitism plays a roll in the widespread Ukrainian disdain for Dnipro. The responsibility of Ukrainian pro Nazi nationalists in contributing to the horrors of the Holocaust in the region is a subject that seems to be studiously avoided, including by you.
how could there be antisemitism when they voted for Zelensky?
What the hell? Many Ukrainians love Dnipro. And our country not antisemitic! Jews live among us, they are ordinary citizens of Ukraine. By the way, our president is Jewish and everyone knows this...
@@ralphwiggum250N yes. And a lot of people in "Rada" are Jews.
It's nice if only you are a jew.
