## About

Bilohorodka is a village west of Kyiv in Kyiv Oblast. Earthworks recall the medieval fortified settlement of Bilhorod, while modern housing ties the village closely to the capital.

## Notes

This is the village west of Kyiv, not Bilhorod-Dnistrovskyi or Belgorod in Russia. The medieval settlement and present village are related but not interchangeable administrative names.
