The president's office website said Zelensky spoke to soldiers, handing out commendations and gifts.
Several explosions were heard in the city of Kharkiv, just hours after the president's visit, according to a Reuters journalist.
Kharkiv has been subjected to Russian shelling in recent days after several weeks of relative quiet.

Russia shows captured fortified Ukrainian positions after destroying defending forces
Russian troops film dead soldiers on the ground after seizing a base and network of trenches during a bloody battle.
In a statement today (26th May), the Russian Ministry of Defence (MoD) claimed they successfully captured the fortified Ukrainian position after beating back the defending forces.
The footage shows Russian troops arriving at the network of trenches and finding dead soldiers, abandoned gear, and firing positions at the pillbox, an underground fort used as an outpost.
The Russian military claimed that the Ukrainians suffered huge losses during their artillery strikes on the stronghold and abandoned their positions.
The leading commander said: “The nationalists put up a strong resistance, but thanks to well-coordinated and confident action, the unit fully completed our task and seized possession of an advantageous line during the allocated timeframe.”
Russian troops invaded Ukraine on 24th February in what the Kremlin is still calling a "special military operation". Today marks the 92nd day of the campaign.
From 24th February to 26th May, the total combat losses of Russian troops stand at around 29,600 personnel, according to the General Staff of the Armed Forces of Ukraine.
The Ukrainian military also claims that Russia has lost 1,315 tanks, 3,235 armoured fighting vehicles, 617 artillery systems, 201 multiple launch rocket systems, 93 anti-aircraft systems, 206 warplanes, 170 helicopters, 2,225 motor vehicles and fuel tankers, 13 vessels, 502 unmanned aerial vehicles, 47 units of special equipment, and 114 cruise missiles.

Dramatic video shows the devastation in Azovstal steel plant which Russia has taken full control of last week in Mariupol, Ukraine.
Many buildings and vehicles were damaged as a result of the clashes in the city where Russia's attacks on Ukraine were the most intense.
At least 4,301 civilians have been killed and 4,735 injured since the war in Ukraine began on Feb. 24, according to UN estimates. The true toll is believed to be significantly higher.
Over 6.6 million people have fled to other countries, while more than 7.7 million have been internally displaced, according to the UN refugee agency. That represents roughly one-third of Ukraine's pre-war population of 43 million people

A HUGE £6million super yacht erupted in a fireball today causing packed beaches to be evacuated after a major incident was declared.
Plumes of black smoke billowed over Torquay as the flames ripped through the 85ft boat on the harbour.
Some locals are understood to be stuck on the pier as firefighters rush to extinguish the blaze.
The boat's ropes caught on fire causing it to break free from its moorings while ablaze.
Police confirmed there have been no injuries reported following the drama at around midday.
Officials have warned locals and holidaymakers to stay away from the seafront and the beaches have been evacuated.
Those living nearby have also been asked to shut their doors and windows to avoid the fumes.
Three fire engines are on the scene to put the flames out on the boat, which contains 8,000 litres of diesel fuel.
One stunned bystander said the blaze was "like a fireball" after it broke out today.
Another said: "There were explosions. Ropes burnt through and it drifted into pier.
