Holosiivskyi Raion (Ukrainian: Голосіївський район, translit.: Holosiivs’kyi raion) is a administrative raion (district) of the city of Kiev, the capital of Ukraine.
Holosiivskyi Raion was created as part of a change in the administrative divisions of the capital of Ukraine, which was conducted in September of 2001, as per the decision of the Kiev City Council on January 1, 2001.
Holosiivskyi Raion is located in the southwestern part of Kiev, bordering the Shevchenkivskyi, Solomianskyi, Pecherskyi, and Darnytskyi raions of Kiev, and the Kyievo-Sviatoshynskyi, Obukhivskyi, and Boryspilskyi raions of Kiev Oblast.
The territory of the raion begins from the famous Khreschatyk street, and stretches toward the southwest of Kiev. With this, the raion is somewhat like the southwest entrance into the city. The raion consists of the following historical neighbourhoods of Kiev: Pankovschyna, Predslavyno, Yamky, Saperna Slobidka, Baikovo, Zabaikove, Demiivka, Shyrma, Tsymbalov Yar, Dobryi Put, Holosiiv, Feofaniya, Lysa Hora, Bahrynova Hora, Myshelovka, Samburky, Kytaevo, Pirogovo, Tserkovschyna, Nyzhna Telychka, Korchevate, Vyta, and Vodnykiv Island.
