Kijevo je malo mjesto, smješteno u plodnoj dolini između planina Dinare i Svilaje. U blizini se nalazi najviši vrh Dinare i Hrvatske - Sinjevo, te izvori rijeka Cetine i Krke.Selo se prvi puta spominje u 14. stoljeću pod nazivom Kij. Arheološki ostaci iz paleolitika, mlađeg neolitika i ilirskog doba govore o dugoj povijesti naseljenosti ovog područja. Brojni su ostaci kasnoantičke arhitekture, ranokršćanske crkve i starohrvatskih grobova, a posebno valja izdvojiti staro groblje sa stećcima.Kijevo je teško stradalo tijekom Domovinskog rata 1991. godine te se do danas radi na oporavku.

From the peak of Pinara and Croatia, there are magnificent views of the sources of the rivers. Remains of late antique architecture and old Croatian graves are some sights to behold while here. Am glad to know of the rich history of this place.

There's a great rich history to listen , learn and love and is evidenced by the archaeological remains from the Paleolithic, Late Neolithic and Illyrian period. I loved how the tour guide elaborated everything to us. The fact that Kijevo is found between two mountains, attributes to its scenic beauty.

The location of the village between the two mountains itself is fascinating and something to marvel at. I loved the aerial view of the place and its beauty is unmatched. A great place to visit.

The village gets its lively attractions from the mother nature. As an agriculture expert , the rich agricultural techniques and farming methods used was very motivating. Very educative.

The architectural art and designs of the buildings did much of the talking. The early churches had a unique interior design and decor that a was outstanding from the other churches. A good place to visit.

The village is richness in archaeological history fascinated me as a History major student. I visited the old Croatian grave and the cemetery to pay my respects to the fall souls. An amazing place to learn history .
