location

The station on metro line 1 (Svyatoschynsko-Brovarska) between the Khreshchatyk and Dnipro metro stations is in the Pechersk town of Pechersk on Arsenal Square, near the Arsenal Factory , the Salyut Hotel and the Church of St. Nicholas on Askold's grave as well as the Kiev Pechersk Lavra . The great depth was necessary because of the location of the city center and the difference in altitude with the Dnieper. Because of this low position, the access escalators are divided, the upper and lower sections are at an angle of approximately 90 degrees.
