Zhuliany (Ukrainian: Жуляни) is a neighbourhood in the south-west of Kyiv, the capital of Ukraine. It is a predominantly cottage-built area, part of the Solomianskyi district. As well as Troieshchyna, Zhuliany became a part of Kyiv municipality in 1988.
The Kyiv International Airport is located in the neighborhood.[1]
In late 1918 Zhuliany was the site of a battle between the Sich Riflemen and Hetmanate forces. On 29 August 1919 troops of the Ukrainian People's Army and Ukrainian Galician Army defeated the Bolsheviks in the area.[2]
An apartment building was hit by a Russian missile strike during the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.
