Mariinsky Palace is an 18th century baroque structure located in Mariinsky Park, right next to the building of the Ukrainian parliament, or Verkhovna Rada, in Kyiv. The palace is part of the presidential residence seving as a setting for ceremonies and official receptions that has recently opened its doors for the public to visit.

Mariinsky Palace used to be nothing more than another distant government building that the public could only glance at from behind the fence.

The 18th century palace has been closed to visitors for almost 12 years, undergoing renovation to restore its baroque image with a distinctive turquoise facade.
