Druzhby Narodiv or Friendship of Peoples (Ukrainian: Дружби Народів,  (listen), named after the road above the station) is a station of Kyiv Metro's Syretsko-Pecherska Line. It is situated between Pecherska and Vydubychi stations. This station was opened on 30 December 1991.

Druzhby Narodiv station was designed by architects Alyoshkin and Krushynskiy. It is a deep level station. The station is connected by escalators with a passenger tunnel situated under Druzhby Narodiv boulevard.

Druzhby Narodiv station operates from 05:43 to 00:12.

Voters chose to rename the station Botanical[1] (Ukrainian: Ботанічний) - after the nearby Hryshko National Botanical Garden \- in a poll taken during the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine; other choices included European and Red Vibernum.[2]
