With a population of just over 210,000, Bila Tserkva is a mid-sized Ukrainian city that has seen its fair share of turmoil. Throughout its long history, the city has been at the center of power struggles, pogroms, and occupations, leaving a complex legacy. Today, bureaucracy is a persistent headache, as the city transitioned from being a regional capital to part of a wider hromada in 2020. However, Bila Tserkva's rich cultural heritage, from its Baroque architecture to its Jewish history, makes it an intriguing destination for those interested in Ukraine's past.
