Our visit Lviv travel guide documentary covers some of the top attractions including a food guide (both local and international), top sightseeing tourist attractions and the city by day including visiting neighborhoods, churches, cathedrals, the city centre and museums. We also cover off-the-beaten-path outdoor activities you won't find in a typical Lviv tourism brochure, Lviv itinerary or Lviv, Ukraine city tour.
20 Things to do in Lviv, Ukraine Travel Guide Video Script:
Today’s video is all about our visit to Lviv. Having come straight from Kiev, Lviv offered a real change of scenery. The city was much smaller, more walkable, and it looked distinctly Central European. In some ways, it reminded us of a smaller version of Krakow or Prague, though a little rough around the edges. But enough about first impressions; let us actually show you around. In this video we’re going to take you on a grand tour of the city and highlight 20 things to do in Lviv on your next visit, so let’s get started.
Like in Kiev, we quickly discovered that Lviv is a city of churches, so our next stop was the Church of the Holy Communion. After our sushi lunch, we visited the Bernardine Church in the south end of the Old Town; followed by the Latin Cathedral, which sits in the southwest corner of Market Square; and finally the Jesuit Church, where we stumbled upon yet another wedding!
And that’s a wrap for our visit to Lviv, Ukraine. We found this to be a charming city with a completely different look and feel from Kiev, so we’re glad we added this stop to our itinerary. If you’re short on time, this is a great destination for a weekend escape.
If you have any other suggestions of cool things to do around Lviv, feel free to share those with fellow travellers in the comments below. Wishing you happy travels!
This is part of our Travel in Ukraine video series showcasing Ukrainian food, Ukrainian culture and Ukrainian cuisine.

TRIP TO LVIV, UKRAINE 2019 ( LVOV Львів LWÓW LEMBERG Լվով )
hoto documentary about a trip to Lviv. Four days, full of interesting experiences and good food and cherry. Lviv is a city of wide history, nice people and history. Photographed and filmed by Nikon D750 and mobile phones.
Lvov (ukrajinsky Львів, Lviv [ľviv], polsky Lwów, německy Lemberg, latinsky Leopolis, v jidiš לעמבערג, Lemberyk, Lemberek, arménsky Լվով, rusky Львов, Lvov [ľvof]) je největší město západní Ukrajiny a kulturní, vzdělávací, dopravní a hospodářské centrum celé západní části země. Město leží v kopcovitém terénu na okraji vysočiny Roztoččja na říčce Poltvě, 60 km na východ od hranic s Polskem.
Jedna z mála zachovalých tradic je prodej na velkých tržnicích, které jsou v každé městské části.
Lvov byl založen roku 1256 a byl centrem Haličsko-volyňského knížectví, později hlavním městem Haliče. Po staletí byl součástí Polska, resp. Rakouského císařství, což vtisklo městu originální středoevropský ráz. Centrum města je zapsáno na seznam Světového dědictví UNESCO.
Dnes je Lvov sídlem Lvovské oblasti. V roce 2015 zde žilo 729 429 obyvatel.

Today I explored rainy Lviv in Ukraine while I was there for 5 days. The first few days I was inside working and as soon as I wanted to get out and explore the city, it started pooring down! I went to the city center, after which I made my way to the Park Lviv High Castle to see a nice view of the city. After that I went back to the house where I did some more work..

24 hours in Lviv, Ukraine | Travel Vlog
My Ukrainian roommate and I (a Polish-Canadian girl, living in Krakow) spontaneously decided to hitch-hike from Krakow, Poland to Lviv, Ukraine for the weekend. We met up with our American friends and it turned out to be one of the coolest weekend adventures I've ever had in Europe! We were back at work for 9:00am Monday morning ;)
In this video, you will see...
+ 24 hours exploring Lviv, Ukraine
+ Fire-themed cafe where they use a blow-torch to make your coffee!!! Details: Lviv Coffee Manufacture, Rynok Square, 10
+ Trying some traditional Ukrainian food at Cafe Borshh - so delicious!!!
+ Ukrainian Night Club (Malevich night club)- incredible show! Typical for a Saturday night apparently! Ukraine sets the bar HIGH, wow!
+ Getting across the Poland/Ukrainian border via car and by foot
I highly recommend all of the above! :)

Lviv is a Winter Wonderland - Ukraine Travel
I visited Lviv in western Ukraine between Christmas and New Year's Eve as I was meeting up with some friends, then heading onto the capital Kyiv. When I got off the plane at Lviv airport, I headed onto the bus into the city centre and when I got off the bus, oh my god was it cold. It was only about -4 degrees celcius but it felt like minus 50 to me. I had to put on extra layers of clothes and go inside as it was so cold. I managed to cobble together some footage for you to view from my time in Lviv before I got too cold.
Lviv is a really nice place, looking like a winter wonderland as you can see in the video. The park with the toys is very odd and looks mad covered with snow.
Anyway, hope you enjoy this video from Lviv.
Lviv is one of the main cultural centres of Ukraine. It's the largest city in the west of Ukraine. Apparently there's a lot of Polish influence in Lviv as it's so close to the border.
Lviv was the centre of the historical regions of Red Ruthenia and Galicia. The historical heart of the city, with its old buildings and cobblestone streets, survived Soviet and German occupations during World War II largely unscathed. The city has many industries and institutions of higher education such as Lviv University and Lviv Polytechnic. Lviv is also the home of many cultural institutions, including a philharmonic orchestra and the Lviv Theatre of Opera and Ballet. The historic city centre is on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
Lviv is known as Lwów in Poland, which is just over the border, not too far away from Lviv. Lviv is also known as Львов in Russian.
