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.

Why You Need to Visit Lviv Ukraine
If you’re planning a tour of Europe’s great historic cities, Lviv should absolutely be on your list! Lviv is the cultural capital of Ukraine. It's a charming city with narrow medieval streets paved with stones, and probably the most beautiful architecture in Eastern Europe. The central part of Lviv is included in the UNESCO list of World Heritage.
A special thanks to Cobblestone Freeway Tour who showed us the very best of Ukraine. Thanks to them, I got to experience the fascinating culture, learn about their past, and meet friendly locals.

Walking around Lviv, Ukraine | Top sights and attractions
Walking around Lviv, Ukraine. Lviv is the largest city in Western Ukraine with more than 700.000 inhabitants. The city boasts historical and cultural treasures from different parts of history.
Lviv is a real treasure in Eastern Europe. For visitors from Western Europe, the price level is still very low, while food and accommodation are excellent. There are a lot less tourists than in places like Prague, Budapest or Krakow. The charming and beautifully restored old town is on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The atmosphere is very relaxed and people are welcoming. It is one of my favorite cities in Europe and reminds me a lot of my hometown - Graz, Austria.
Lviv was a multicultural city under Polish rule for many centuries. It is also known as Lemberg in German, as the city was under Austrian rule from 1776 to 1918. It was again called Lwów under Polish rule from 1918 to World War II, when the city became part of Soviet Union. Since Ukraine's independence in 1991, the city has been called Lviv (Львів).

I'm back in Ukraine and getting a taste of restaurants I've never been to. Some I've been before and it was so good I had to return! Unfortunately I only spent a short time here this time so I did not get to try all the bistros on my must try list.
I will be back soon for a much longer time and I will eat and drink as much as I can :P
These are some of my favorite places. I also added some travel video clips so its not all food.
