Lviv dates back to the 12th century and its center is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The Rynok, or central square, is the centerpiece of this area. Far from being history frozen in amber, it's a vibrant and beautiful place filled day and night with people. There are several wonderful museums on the Rynok, and it would really be a shame not to climb to the top of the city hall tower to get a commanding view of old Lviv. On one corner of the square is a functioning pharmacy, which also contains a Pharmacy Museum that's a can't miss attraction (be sure to venture downstairs!) Surrounding he Rynok is a ring of restaurants and coffee shops, with a variety of Ukrainian and other cuiines served. At night the Rynok is alive with outdoor dining, street musicians, and the sounds of the brass orchestra at the Pravda Beer Theater, a three story bottle shop and lively restaurant / pub. Just off the Rynok are streets with a wide variety of businesses ranging from the Lviv Handmade Chocolate Company to a Thai street food restaurant.

St. George's Cathedral is a Greek Catholic 18th-century cathedral with rococo yellow facade, housing an icon of the Virgin Mary. During 19th and 20th centuries, the cathedral served as the mother church of the Ukrainian Greek Catholic Church.

10. Sil' Ukrainian Cooking Class
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 78 reviews
Our class is an opportunity to learn how to cook traditional Ukrainian food but most of all it is an experience, which you will keep as a memory about Lviv. Travelling is one of the most open-minding activities. Getting to know new places is also tasting local customs and traditions. This is the salt of any journey, which we in Ukraine simply call – Sil’. Our philosophy is to share with people who travel to Ukraine a little piece of our culture and traditions, which you can bring from my home to yours!
