Foreword Lviv is probably the most tourist friendly city in Ukraine! Here hospitality is not only a local tradition, but it is the main business of the whole city. The local authorities and inhabitants seem to go out of their way to make your stay in Lviv unforgettable. Lviv is a city with much to offer, a city of unique oldworld charm. It is the scene of an accident where East broadsided West, but left only a dent. With its remarkably preserved Renaissance architecture, gently bending streets and hidden ancient niches, Lviv is a Ukrainian city with a European soul. Known as the centre of Ukrainian art and culture, the city boasts many of the country’s brightest and best museums, art galleries and theatres. It is also Ukraine’s Mecca – there are magnificent and inspiring churches and cathedrals on just about every corner. Although Lvivians have the reputation as church-goers, they haven’t forgotten how to party. Pubs, clubs, restaurants and coffee houses are plentiful, and it’s usually a local who’s stoking the celebration into the early morning hours. Lviv has had an enthralling and violent history. Founded by King Danylo of Galicia in honour of his son Lev in 1256, the city has had many rulers including Poland, Sweden, the Austrian-Hungarian Empire, Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union. The dubious Hitler-Stalin Pact of 1939 granted control of Lviv to the Soviet Union. This occupation spurred numerous resistance movements in the 1940s and 50s including the much celebrated and controversial Ukrainian Insurgent Army. With the fall of the Soviet Union in 1991, freedom was finally seized. Lviv continues to be a shining example of independence, and Ukraine owes much of its contemporary identity to the stream of patriotism which emanates from this radical western gem. Vitayemo u Lvovi! Welcome to Lviv!

It’s now 22 years since we published the first In Your Pocket guide - to Vilnius in Lithuania - in which time we have grown to become the largest publisher of locally produced city guides in Europe. We now cover more than 100 cities across the continent (with Gudauri, in Georgia, the latest city to be pocketed) and the number of concise, witty, wellwritten and downright indispensable In Your Pocket guides published each year is approaching five million. We will be expanding even further this year, with the publication of a guide to Johannesburg: our first outside of Europe.

Foreword Cover story

In Your Pocket Mobile

Lviv In Your Pocket is proud to give its readers a brand new design. For this first issue we have chosen a great photograph of Chorna Kamiyanytsia House on Rynok Square 4. For a long time this building has been one of the most recognizable symbols of the city, it is also one of the most important 16th century architectural monuments from the Late Renaissance period. The photo shows the middle of the building façade with the depiction of St Martin on his horse, cutting off part of his cloak for a beggar.

In Your Pocket is now available on all smartphones via our responsive mobile platform, found at m.inyourpocket.com. Featuring more than 100 cities across Europe, In Your Pocket Mobile is an invaluable resource which puts our unrivalled content together with the technical capabilities of today’s smartphones. In Your Pocket Mobile allows you to view all venues in a city on a map, quickly showing which are the closest to your current location. Smart filters can be used to ensure that only those places which matter to you are displayed. You can also leave comments about venues, as well as rate them, right in the mobile platform. You can even share your comments with your friends via the most popular social networks. Point your phone’s web browser to m.inyourpocket.com now.

THe new in your pocket Regular readers would have no doubt noticed that this issue of In Your Pocket is sporting something of a new look. Designed entirely with our readers in mind, we have taken on board hundreds of comments we have received over the past few years to come up with a new format for our guides to make them more dynamic, streamlined and easier on the eye than ever before. With far less clutter than in past editions, we now emphasise the very best a city has to offer, while still ensuring that we point your way to all of those quirky, off-the-beaten track places you will not find in any other, lesser city guides. While we of course hope that the changes are met with approval by all our readers, do please get in touch if you have any feedback at all about our makeover: we welcome all opinions, be they good or bad or indifferent. Only by listening to our readers can we make In Your Pocket even better. Send your thoughts about all things Pocket to the email address editor@inyourpocket.com, and follow us on both Twitter (twitter.com/inyourpocket) and Facebook (facebook.com/inyourpocket) to keep up with all the latest developments at In Your Pocket.

One of the Best

The UK newspaper The Independent recently published a list of the best 50 travel websites on the internet: inyourpocket.com was the third name on that list. This is what the newspaper had to say about us: “Entertaining and honest (at times devastatingly so), the In Your Pocket city guides make their rivals seem tame by comparison. More than 100 European cities have been given the In Your Pocket treatment, and all the key content from the print editions has been collated on this well-organised and userfriendly website. It also includes a series of YouTube vignettes.”

Arriving & Getting Around By plane Danylo Halytskyi Lviv International Airport When travellers referred to the Lviv International Airport it was usually in the context of either a twisted joke or a terrifying tale. Time changes; and in April 2012 Lviv got the newly renovated Terminal. All in glass and steel in 14km west of the city centre, Danylo Halytskyi Lviv International became much better and pleasant. Getting around the city’s gateway will not take you any efforts, signs both in English and Ukrainian show the way and nothing here differs from most of fine European airports. Tourist information booth is located on the ground floor, with an information desk, customs, telephones, lost and found, car rental booths, first aid, 24 hour police services, waiting rooms, ATMs and a currency exchange. There are cafés in both check-in and departing zones and airline ticketing booths can also be found in the terminal. Lost and found tel. (+380) 32 229 83 19. QLubyns’ka 168, tel. (+380) 32 229 81 12, www.lwo.aero. W Getting to town Taxis stands outside the main entrance of the aiport. The 70-80Hr fare to centre is relatively cheap for Ukraine, but the real bargain is by trolleybus 9 (1,25Hr) or marshrutka 48 (2Hr). It’s about 20 minutes by taxi and 40 minutes by trolleybus.

by train Lviv Holovnyi Train Station With platforms wrapped in lofty steel awnings, run down trains and suspicious glances, arriving to Lviv’s central rail station can be like stepping into a Cold War era spy movie. Once the nostalgia has worn off, exit the platforms by proceeding down the stairs then follow the exit signs to the station’s halls. A currency exchange (обмін валют), ticketing booths (каса) and schedules are located in the main hall. There is also a floor plan displayed of available services if you happen to get disoriented. Purchase international tickets from booth No. 2. (Quiet please, the street dogs huddled in the corner are trying to sleep.) Proceed through the corridor past hall No. 2 for a currency exchange and a news stand that sells maps of Lviv. There are three left luggage (Камера зберігання) areas/lockers available in the right wing. No. 1 is the largest and is the only post that handles bags of all sizes. Depending on the size of your bag, expect to pay from 5-20Hr per day. Police services are also located in the right wing. Toilets are scattered throughout the building. The easiest to find are located in the corridors leading to the platforms. QF-6, Dvirtseva pl. 1, tel. (+380) 32 748 20 68. Getting to town Getting from the station to centre is relatively easy. Taxis are abundant near the main exit. A gauntlet of taxi drivers await at the exit of the main hall. A 6 Lviv In Your Pocket

trip to centre should cost around 30Hr and Lviv’s cabbies are much friendlier and less scheming than those in other major Ukrainian cities. The parking lot beyond the cabbies is bustling with busses and mini-busses, most of which connect to outlaying cities, towns and villages. Your best public transport option is tram No. 1, which heads directly to centre. The same tram with a different name, No. 9, takes passengers in the opposite direction from centre to the train station.

by bus Stryis’kyi Avtovokzal All international buses arrive at Stryis’kyi Avtovokzal; however, some buses, including routes from Warsaw and Krakow, may make a first stop in centre not far from Shevchenka prosp. Ask your driver to be sure. At the bus station, ticket offices and schedules are located on the ground floor. Upstairs you’ll find a waiting hall, a small hotel and a cafeteria. To find the left-luggage office, head downstairs from the central hall. QStryis’ka 109, tel. (+380) 32 294 98 17, www.bus.com. ua, Open 24hrs. Getting to town Stryis’kyi Avtovokzal is located relatively far from the city centre. Taxis are your obvious quickest option; depending on your haggling skills, fares are available for as little as 50Hr. For an unbelievable value, take trolleybus No. 5 to Shota Rustaveli Street (I-4) for the meagre fare of 1,25Hr. Though it may be cramped, marshrutkas No. 7, 37, 57 and 71 shuttle passengers to centre for 2Hr. Bus No. 18 connects Stryis’kyi Avtovokzal with Lviv Holovnyi Train Station.

Public Transport Almost all Lviv sights and places of interest are within easy walking distance for even the most unfit and/or laziest of people. However there is a wide web of trolleybuses (electric buses), trams (streetcars), buses, microbuses and minivans, which sometimes (especially in rush hours) are overcrowded. Don’t take the jostling personally, don’t inhale too deeply but do give up your seat to the elderly and mothers with children. Trolleybuses and trams are favoured by schoolchildren, the working class and babushkas and dedushkas. They won’t get you anywhere in a hurry, but they do provide an intriguing look into everyday Ukrainian life. Single tickets for trolleys, trams and buses can be purchased for 1.50Hr from conductors and the driver on board. You should immediately validate your ticket using one of the many punching gadgets around you. If not, you risk being intimidated into paying a fine. All tickets are good for one journey only. The privately-owned marshrutkas (маршрутки) or route taxis (usually yellow) stop at bus stops along specified routes. Many run the same routes as trolleys or trams and use the same numbers. Otherwise, try to read the main stops posted on the vehicle’s windshield or side window lviv.inyourpocket.com

Arriving & Getting Around before it speeds by. Marshrutkas will definitely get you from A to B faster than other forms of municipal transport, as they are smaller and more manoeuvrable; an important feature on Lviv’s narrow roads. Just flag it down as you would a taxi, then tell the driver “na zupyntsi, budlaska” (“on the stop, please”) when you’ve had enough. Fares are paid as you board and currently costs 2Hr.

Buying train tickets For the full Ukrainian experience, line up to buy a train ticket at one of ticket offices (kasy) at the train station. The staff does not speak English, so try to practice you Ukrainian/ Russian. It is a good idea to get know the train number in advance and write in on a piece of paper, together with the departure date and time. Don’t bother to learn the Ukrainian alphabet, write down the destination city name in English as well as your name. You might be asked to provide a passport when boarding. Thanks to EURO2012 we finally have English almost everywhere. Visit booking.uz.gov.ua/ en/ for train schedule and ticket booking.

City Basics Crime and Safety They say that Ukrainians can spot a foreigner from a kilometre away. This fact alone will not automatically make you the target of crime. Lviv is, in fact, a rather safe place. As in most cities, flashing large amounts of cash can cause trouble. Wallets are known to disappear in public transport crowds, so guard your pockets at all times. Being very drunk and/or loud on the street is always a good way to attract unwanted attention, especially from the police. By the way, it’s a good idea for foreigners to carry at least a copy of their passport and visa with them at all times.

Customs If you are 18 years of age or over you can import, free of customs duties and taxes, one litre of hard alcohol, two litres of wine, 200 cigarettes or 50 cigars or 250 grams of tobacco. Personal belongings are not subject to customs duties or taxes, though a customs officer has the right to ask you to make a written declaration in relation to them. A person can bring in food products free of customs duties and taxes if their total value does not exceed €200. However, food products should not total more than two kilogrammes, and there should not be more than one package of the same product. Goods with a total value of less than €1000 may be brought in free of customs duties and taxes. If the value of your goods is greater than €1000, but less than €10000 they will need to be declared on a customs personal declaration form and you should pay 10% duty plus 20% VAT. If the value of the goods is greater than €10000, the goods will be subject to clearance in accordance with the import declaration requirements for imported cargo. Cultural goods may be brought in if they are not subject to any international alert and you have documents which prove your right of ownership. To take such goods out of Ukraine you will need to obtain relevant authorisation documents from the State Service for Control Over the Passage of Cultural Values Across the National Frontier of Ukraine (J-3, Smolskoho 10, tel. (+380) 322 75 80 81/72 79 91.) All customs declarations, filled out upon arrival to Ukraine, must be kept throughout the period of your stay, and must be handed over upon departure. This declaration can not be renewed if lost.

Drinking Ukrainian beer (pyvo) is quite tasty and extremely cheap to boot. Tipsiness may set in early, though, as its alcohol content is higher than Western brands. Those preferring foreign brands can find their favourites at finer shops and establishments. Ukraine also produces a wide selection of vodka, which flows freely at many parties and gatherings. Beware if offered homemade vodka (samohon). While good samohon can be better than some bootleg labels in shops, the overall odds are against you and your stomach. Whether it’s Ukrainian vodka or moonshine, be ready to offer a toast at some point. A modest ’cheers’ (bud’mo) will do for a foreigner. 8 Lviv In Your Pocket

Lviv, Lvov, Lwów Throughout its history, Lviv has had several names. The city was known as Lwów when the Poles ruled, the Austro-Hungarian Empire called it Lemberg and Jewish residents referred to it as Lemberik. Currently, many languages have their own spelling and pronunciation. This is the case with ‘Lviv’ (Ukrainian) and ‘Lvov’ (Russian). As the city immerged to become the centre of Ukrainian language and culture in the 1990s, the Ukrainian version became increasingly common and useful, i.e. using ‘Lviv’ while searching the Internet will definitely result in more hits..

Basic data Lviv Population 761 929 Ukraine Population 45 553 000 Ethnic composition Ukrainian 77.8%, Russian 17.3%, Belarusian 0.6%, Moldovan 0.5%, Crimean Tatar 0.5%, Bulgarian 0.4%, Hungarian 0.3%, Romanian 0.3%, Polish 0.3%, Jewish 0.2%, other 1.8%. Territory 603,700km2 (the second largest in Europe, slightly smaller than Texas). The only mountain chains are the Carpathians in the west and the Crimean Mountains in the extreme south. Borders Belarus 891km, coastline (Black and Azov Seas) 2,782km, Hungary 103km, Moldova 939km, Poland 526km, Romania (south) 169km, Romania (west) 362km, Russia 1,576km, Slovakia 97km. Rivers Dnipro (1,204km), Dnister, Donets, Buh, Danube. Highest point Mount Hoverla 2,061m. Local time All of Ukraine is in the Eastern European Time zone (GMT +2), along with its neighbouring countries Belarus, Romania and Turkey. Thus, when it is 12:00 in Kyiv, it is 13:00 in Moscow, 11:00 in Paris and Warsaw, 10:00 in London and 05:00 in New York.

Money The national currency is the hryvnia (Hr), which replaced the transitional karbovanets on September 2, 1996. Don’t be confused if your amount is given in roubles. You haven’t been transported to Russia or taken back in time to the USSR - some people just have trouble letting go of the past! Paper bills carry denominations of 1, 2, 5, 10, 50, 100, 200 and 500 hryvnias. There are 100 kopecks in a hryvnia, with 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50 kopeck and 1Hr coins. You’ll have no problem finding currency exchange points, but rates are better from central street kiosks. If it’s traveller’s checks you need to cash, look for a big respectable-looking bank. You can find a number of ATMs around Lviv and many hotels and restaurants now take Visa and MasterCard - American Express is not very popular. There have been scattered reports of credit card fraud in upscale restaurants, though, so you may want to think twice before charging it. lviv.inyourpocket.com

City Basics Smoking

Tourist Information

You’re never too far away from a lit cigarette in Ukraine, and in some bars and clubs the term second-hand smoke just doesn’t seem to matter. Smokers enjoy a ridiculously cheap selection of cigarettes hawked by one of the many babushkas and corner kiosks that are located throughout the city. But a new more rigorous law on smoking prohibition takes effect nationwide on December 16, 2012. It sets a total ban on smoking in restaurants, bars, clubs and cafes (except open terraces), cultural, medical, educational and sport institutions (including playgrounds and stadiums), public transport (including stops), underpasses (subways), and inside apartment buildings (including stairs and lifts). All other premises and buildings (including hotels, hostels, airports, railway terminals) should have designated smoking areas equipped with exhaust ventilation. The law also sets fines from 51–10,000Hr for anyone breaking the law.

Visas Citizens of the EU, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Andorra, Vatican, Iceland, Monaco, Norway, San Marino, Georgia, Mongolia, the U.S., Canada, Japan and the countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) - except Turkmenistan - can enter Ukraine visa-free and stay up to 90 days. Everyone else needs a visa, which must be obtained from a Ukrainian embassy or consulate abroad before travelling. Visas can be processed in as little as one day, with prices varying depending on the type and length of visa requested. Many Ukrainian embassies only handle visa cases on certain days of the week, so call ahead. Travel to Russia is not so simple. All foreign visitors, with the exception of citizens from selected countries of the CIS, must obtain a visa. Upon arrival, you will need to fill in an immigration card. If you are staying more that 72 hours, you will need to register with the local police (hotels are usually willing to aid in this process). Transit visas are also required. For additional information, call (+380) 32 275 24 63.

Travel to Belarus is also a bit tricky. Citizens of the EU, Andorra, Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway and Croatia can apply for 30-day single and multiple entry business and private visas without an invitation. The rest of us need an invitation, or we can book through a travel agency authorized to issue state travel vouchers. All visitors are required to purchase national medical insurance, and must register their passports with local police within three days of their arrival (hotels are usually willing to aid in this process). Transit visas are also required. For more information, call (+380) 322 37 27 30. Moldova greatly relaxed its visa laws in 2007. Citizens of the EU, Norway, Switzerland, Japan, Israel, Canada and the U.S. can enter Moldova visa-free and stay up to 90 days. For all other visitors, visas can be acquired at a Moldavian consulate or at the Chisinau airport by presenting an application form and photos. For more information, call (+380) 44 280 77 21. Citizens of the EU, Norway, Switzerland, Canada, the U.S., Japan, Australia, Israel and a handful of Latin American countries can enter Romania visa-free and stay up to 90 days. Citizens of countries not on the list can obtain a visa at the Romanian consulate in Kyiv. For more information, call (+380) 44 234 00 40. Poland, Hungary and Slovakia belong to the European Schengen zone. Citizens of Canada, Mexico, the U.S., Israel, Hong Kong, Japan, South Korea, Malaysia and Singapore may enter without a visa; however, the amount of time you are allowed to stay varies from country to country. All others must apply for a visa at the consulate of destination country. For more information call the following consulates: Polish (+380) 322 97 08 61, Hungarian (+380) 322 64 58 22, Slovakian consulate in Kyiv (+380) 44 234 06 06. February - March 2014

Bukovel The best Ukrainian ski resort

Bukovel Located in the Ivano-Frankivs’k region, 30km west of Yaremche Bukovel is Ukraine’s largest ski resort. With high-speed chair lifts, meticulously groomed slopes, snow-making machines and ubiquitous security personnel, it is also Ukraine’s first European-class resort. Indeed, it’s rather unusual to see this degree of organisation in Ukraine. Bukovel has been carefully planned to make skiing enjoyable and convenient - queues longer than five minutes are rare. This mountain is booming! Over the next few seasons Bukovel plans to have 278km of trails and 35 lifts, which would make it one of the 20 largest ski resorts in the world. At the start of this season, 16 lifts and 50km of runs were available. Check out their website for more information including current snow conditions.

Getting there From Kyiv and Lviv, the trains can take you to IvanoFrankivsk. From Ivano-Frankivs’k you can go by taxi, bus or marshrutka (110km). If you drive (not recommended), it’s best to travel via Ivano-Frankivs’k. Then proceed through the towns of Nadvirna and Yaremche, then through the villages of Mykulychyn, Tatariv and Polyanytsya. Follow the signs to Bukovel. Free parking is available.

Ski slopes Bukovel’s base elevation is nearly 900m above sea level, and the highest ski lift rises to 1372m, making it the second highest ski resort in Ukraine. All categories of slope difficulty are available. There is a very long gradual slope that is perfect for beginners, a couple of short tows for chil-

facebook.com/LvivInYourPocket

dren and “super-beginners”, all levels of intermediate runs and several black diamond runs for experts and the idiotic brave. Night skiing is available from 17:00 - 20:00; however, only one upper intermediate slope is currently equipped with lights. For more information check out the trail map at bukovel.com/en/map. Blue indicates beginner slopes, red are intermediate and black are advanced.

Ski rental Five rental shops are at your service and are located near lower lifts No. 1, 2, 5 and 7. These centres are also equipped with storage rooms, lockers, showers, bathrooms and skiservice centres (open 08:45 - 17:00). All skis are relatively new, in excellent condition and rent from 80-260Hr. Snowboard sets go for 80-140Hr. As collateral you must leave a passport, driver’s license or a deposit of 2500-9000Hr. Snowmobiles are also available for rent.

Lift passes Prices at Bukovel are considerably higher than elsewhere in Ukraine. One lift ride costs 35-40Hr. Passes can be bought for 3 hours, full-day, several days or the entire season. Fullday passes (good for all lifts) cost 336-396Hr. The popular 5 days ride pass costs 1132Hr and 1524Hr for the holiday season. Almost all of the lifts are chair lifts and a few are tows. Lift passes can be purchased in several places around the base of the mountain. More details on www.bukovel.com/en

The purpose of Tex Mex BBQ is simply for Ukrainians to experience America. Country music is played throughout the restaurant as well as outside. There are two rooms with different themes, the Texas room & the Mexican room - all simply yet practically furnished. The menu is not large, but enough choices to make one ponder. The Mexican choices are tacos, burritos, frijoles refritos, guacamole, etc. Then there are the Texan choices with the house speciality being barbecued ribs with Mike’s own secret sauce - for 75Hr a portion. Two side dishes come with every order at no extra cost. An average complete meal runs around 80-100Hr. QB-6, Jokhara Dudayeva 7, tel. (+380) 32 261 17 72, denvermike99@ yahoo.com, Open 16:00 - 23:00.

Armenian Krakivska Brama Though European, Carpathian (Hutsul) and Ukrainian are all represented on the menu, the delicious authentic Armenian is what sets this place apart. We recommend taking a seat in the basement near the flavourful mangal (grill), where chefs meticulously roast Lulya kabob, mutton shashlyk, sea trout and other traditional delicacies. If you would like to keep the good times rolling after hours, it will set you back 150Hr per hour. Also, it’s definitely worth keeping this eatery in mind for breakfast; the omelettes and crêpes come with complimentary tea and toast. Banquets can be organised for up to 50, and tour groups are welcome to place orders in advance. QB-3, Krakivska 5, tel. (+380) 32 236 72 73, Open 08:00 - 24:00. PAUIGBS Taron A short drive outside the centre brings one to this beautifully decorated restaurant.

Eat Asian

Brewery

Aroma Café When nearby Potocki Palace, we highly advise you to step in this new restaurant, which quickly became popular among locals. It has nice modern interior and original menu with meat dishes from oriental cuisine. There is a good choice of five types of breakfasts from 23Hr and three types of lunches from 35Hr. For particularly hungry we recommend “Tom Yan” Thai soup with veal. You can also enjoy a Black Burger - an exclusive in Lviv, made with cuttlefish ink. Meat lovers will appreciate the wide range of meat dishes on the grill, soups and salads. In short, this is a great option where you can just sit and have a meal with friends. The stuff speaks English and a menu in English is available. QB-5, Kopernyka 11, tel. (+380) 96 811 65 93, Open 10:00 - 22:00. PASW

Kumpel The centrepiece of this lively restaurant is the two large vats where Kumpel beer is brewed. It’s definitely worth your time to sample all three varieties (dark, light and red). We were particularly impressed by the incredibly fresh and lively light. The menu is loaded with steaks, seafood and beer munchies. For exceptional service, just push the little call button.

Peking This is about as authentic as it gets here. The décor is traditional Asian and in the back is a grill built into a huge table Japanese style. The cuisine is a mix of Chinese and Japanese. We enjoyed the “Lotus Flower” veal with sweet pepper in a spicy sauce for 79Hr. For a small party there is a Peking duck at 470Hr a kilo. There is seating for 50 and all speak a bit of English.QI-4, Hrushevskoho 8, tel. (+380) 32 260 22 07, www.pekin.lviv.ua. Open 17:00 - 23:00. PASW

Kumpel new The first thing that struck us was the size and design. It is a large-high ceiling with dark wooden tables and chairs, and a Hi-tech design. Then the music hit us. It was something we never heard before; Polish/Ukrainian music from the 1920’s. The kitchen is Galician/Polish with some very unusual items. We tried the banosh - a maize porridge for 50Hr. There are savoury pies and home-made sausages of beef, pork, turkey, and chicken that you can have with home-made bread. A complete meal will cost between 150-250Hr. Some of their delicious home-made items are available in the souvenir shop downstairs which you must visit anyway as it is the entrance to the restaurant. QB-1, prosp. Chornovola 2B, tel.

Arsenal Museum Restaurant It is like walking into a medieval museum without having to pay. It is an authentically restored hall in the medieval theme.

The large panoramic terrace and window-side tables are extremely popular. Booking ahead will insure a spectacular evening. The menu sounds like poetry: “Veal medallions with Demi glacé cream and grilled vegetables”. The Caesar salad has procured a cult following and Italian Minestrone soup with rosemary is unbelievably rich and tasty. If you’re hopping to spark a new romance or just kick start an old love, Panorama is the obvious place to make it happen. QA-3, Svobody prosp. 45, tel.

Atmosphera For Ukrainians, atmosphere is everything. Current dining trends represent a revolt against the drab stand-up Soviet lunch counters and cafés that were once the only option. Atmosphera offers “creative” Euro cuisine to go with the ultra-chic ambiance. The menu features steaks (pork and veal) and intriguing dishes such as Mafaldine pasta with cold smoked salmon, red caviar, cream and parmesan cheese. This venue also houses a business meeting room and a popular pub/club. QC-4, Brativ Rohatyntsiv 18, tel.

European Amadeus Near the Latin Cathedral - one of the most beautiful Lviv Catholic churches and right in the heart of the city, a covered summer terrace of this popular restaurant catches the eye immediately. With one of the most eclectic menus of Galicia, it’s hard to go wrong and the pork steak Amadeus comes highly recommended. Familiarity in service standards, a fantastic breakfast/brunch menu and a posh but not too over the top atmosphere make this a popular expat haunt. It is also a favourite place of many politicians, businessmen and diplomats. US ambassador to Ukraine likes visiting Amadeus while staying in Lviv. QC-4, Katedral’na pl. 7, tel.

This is a combination restaurant-strip club. The outside terrace area (seasonal) appears to be a normal restaurant. Inside, one is stuck with the beauty of early Venice. A great eatery in the day time with erotic shows at night beginning at 23:00. The staff was quite friendly and spoke some English. There is an Italian-European menu with a businessman’s lunch from Monday to Friday for only 45Hr as well as a tourist menu for groups making advanced bookings. QC-3, Stavropihiys’ka 7, tel.

The menu contains one of the most elaborate seafood selections found in the city with fried dorado, calamari, sea bass and savoury salmon dishes.

The dishes come with 2 side dishes and are a complete meal in themselves - for just 35-50Hr. We had the beef-steak with potatoes and salad for 50Hr and could barley finish it. There are also great pizzas for between 34-41Hr, salads around 40Hr, and soups about 30Hr. For a meal for 2 we paid less than half of what we usually pay. The place is warm and cosy seating around 30. I suggest coming in a bit before or after the “lunch rush” as it is quite busy then. The staff is friendly and communicates quite well in English.

Besides, we are convinced that the food and fascinating ambiance are well worth the insane prices. As we entered, an attendant dressed us in the Masonic apron, and then introduced this fascinating cult. It was quite revealing how influential the Masons have been in shaping world history. Benjamin Franklin, George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Peter the Great and local heroes Mykhailo Hrushevsky and Ivan Franko were all Masons.

Whenever pouring snifters of cognac, a friend of ours from Tbilisi likes to joke, “It’s always useful to keep a bottle of French or Armenian cognac around the house - you need something to clean the glasses out before pouring the good Georgian stuff.” Indeed, Georgians are extremely proud of their cognac and aromatic wines, and Staryi Tiflis has some of the better brands on hand.

Once inside, you’ll find a fascinating and jovial bunker complete with grenades, rifles and other military antiques.

Uzbek Bukhara Reasonable prices, a unique atmosphere and hearty authentic Uzbek cuisine make this place very popular. An English menu is available upon request. The shurpa (mutton soup) was some of the best we’ve ever sampled and the cheburek (Uzbek meat pie), pilaf and shashlik are all dripping with authenticity. The staff is very friendly, the food arrived quickly and with a smile.

Cafés Welcome to Ukraine’s coffee capital! Life for Lvivians revolves around the café, and it’s no wonder that there is an endless selection of establishments to choose from. Indeed, it’s theoretically possible to visit a different café everyday and never see the same place twice. No matter where you end up, you’re sure to find a charming atmosphere, rich aromatic coffee and a loaded menu. The city also boasts a variety of must-visit theme cafés that brilliantly introduce and preserve the city’s diverse history and culture. If you’re a coffee lover, you’ve come to the right place. For those that are indifferent, prepare to get hooked. Amichi It is a quaint little café-restaurant just off the beaten path. The décor is “European New” with seating for about 25 with a constant flow of good ”mellow” music. The cuisine is European/Italian and very moderately priced. There is a breakfast menu from 09:00-12:00 and a great business lunch for 40Hr served from 12:00-16:00. The staff is fluent in English which makes it a great place to hold private parties.

There is a small café at the entrance where there are many flavours of hot chocolate and coffee to choose. All the chocolate candies made here can be sampled before you go to the shop. Milkshakes, ice cream, cakes and snacks are awaiting you as well. Also on the ground floor, one can view the actual workshop where these delicacies are made.

PAGSW Lvivska Kopalna Kavy (Lviv’s Coffee Mine) At the entrance one sees a conveyer belt bringing up coffee from the underground coffee mine. So of course we jumped at the chance to go on a tour of this mine far beneath the streets of Lviv. Downstairs, we go to the mine entrance where we put on a miners hat with a lamp and a rather heavy battery pack. We then journey through the dim mine, avoiding the wagons of freshly mined coffee. We stop along the way at little pockets where we sample various spiced coffee. It was quite an experience. Back up stairs there is a regular coffee shop with really yummy cakes and cookies.

Vienna Coffee house

At Lviv’s epicentre you’ll find the popular Vienna Coffee House and Wien Hotel. The venue is split in two with a café on one side and an elegant restaurant/banquet room on the other. It is the perfect place for a romantic breakfast, meeting with friends or celebrations of special events. Majestic instrument with 100 years history, the harmonium decorates the hall. Order anything on the menu with the word “Viennese” attached and you won’t be disappointed. The Viennese schnitzel with mushroom sauce could be the best schnitzel this side of the Danube. It’s easy to become glued to your seat on the relaxing summer terrace, a perfect location for sipping rich coffee and gorging on apple strudel.QB-4, Svobody prosp. 12, tel.

Cafés Masoch Café This titillating theme place is dedicated to writer and original freak Leopold Ritter von Sacher-Masoch who was born in Lviv in 1836. Masoch enjoyed playing the role of the slave and insisted that his dominatrixes wear furs. In fact, the word masochism was coined from his name. The menu, which can be purchased as a souvenir, is loaded with fabulous and unusual dishes. If your husband is having difficulties deciding on a meal, he’s probably too distracted by the pornography that appears on the menu and you should order for him. He’s sure to appreciate the bull’s testicles in an oil and sweet pepper sauce. On your way out the door, don’t forget to reach into Leopold’s pocket for this café’s version of a fortune cookie.

The themehere is “Lviv post cards” - thousands of them on all the walls. It is reckoned to be the largest collection of its kind in Ukraine. There are also some old postal machines and telephones giving it an authentic museum-type of effect. Their specialty is “home -made pies” both savoury and sweet. Pork, chicken, and salmon are some of the savoury ones; while apple-cinnamon and peach-kiwi are some of the sweet ones. Having never tasted cooked kiwi - I had to try the later and thoroughly enjoyed it. .QC-3, Drukarska 3, tel. (+380) 50 434 71 48. Open 08:00 - 00:00.

Editor’s note Lviv’s clubs attract a diverse crowd, and you should be able to blend in quite easily. The great thing about partying in Eastern Europe is that the locals are arguably more awkward on the dance floor than we are in the west, so shrug off you inhibitions and convulse to the beat. Warning: Locals are overtly friendly and often invite foreigners to party at their table. We’ve learned from repeated experience that it’s impossible for a westerner to keep pace with locals when it comes to shooting horilka (vodka). Slow and steady wins the horilka race.

Bars & Pubs 4friends Truly what the Doors had in mind in the song “Show me the way to the next whiskey bar.” 4friends has up to 150 brands of well known and rare whiskeys from Scotland, Ireland, Canada, USA and Japan. A wide range of testing sets pleases the eye and every member of the staff is a specialist in whiskey and speaks good English. There are snacks and a European menu with reasonable prices. Steaks are perfect. This pub is very popular with capacity for around 50. Cosy leather sofas for nice and relaxed dinner and football with rock music to have fun with 28 Lviv In Your Pocket

Most of the action takes place on and around the dance floor, but there’s also plenty to do in the cocktail lounge and the hushed hookah bar.

The uncommonly preserved Renaissance architecture, gently bending streets and hidden ancient niches are sure to propel your mind through a vivid collage of centuries gone by.

Lviv Highlights Arsenal

The city arsenal and its adjoining defensive walls are visible from Arsenal street. Construction on the original two-storied stone building began in the 14th century, but was not completed until 1555. After nearly two centuries of toil this original structure was completely destroyed by fire after only 16 years of operation, and the contemporary building was constructed in its place from 1574-75. When the Swedes invaded in 1704 the arsenal took a beating, but all holes were patched within two years. In the 18th and 19th centuries the arsenal was refortified and lost some of its original form. Most recently, two of the upper floors were restored and now house a museum. Parts of the exterior have been excavated in order to reveal original walls, windows and roof. The swords forged in Lviv gained the reputation as some of the best in Europe. In the 18th Century the arsenal was also used as a prison. QD-4, Pidval’na 5, tel. (+380) 32 235 86 61.

The first city hall was established on Rynok ploscha (Market Square) in the middle of the 14th century. Constructed of wood, it was levelled by fire in 1381. A new hall was erected in the early 15th century. The contemporary building is a conglomeration of the 15th century structure and three major expansions. The stone tower that hovers above the hall is the second of its kind. The original was erected in 1619, but by the beginning of the 19th century was deemed unstable and demolished. The 65 meter high replacement is a replica of the original. Pace yourselves, it’s 306 steps up to the viewing platform. In 2008 a local pornographer boldly used City Hall’s roof as a backdrop for photos, which were splashed all over the Internet. This embarrassment led local authorities to implement stricter security measures including the installation of surveillance cameras. Smile… you’re being watched by a Ukrainian security cop.QC-4, Rynok pl. 1. Admission to the city hall tower - 5Hr. Italian Yard (Italiys’kyi dvoryk)

Black Stone House (Chorna Kamianytsia)

This exceptional architectural monument of the 16th-17th centuries is matchless not only in Lviv, but in the whole of Europe. Construction on this alluring structure began in 1588 and incorporated locally mined, vibrant grey sandstone. The imposing black colour is a product of long-term absorption by the stone of dust, dirt and smoke that swirled about the market (coal was used to heat homes until the 1960s).

What to see

Jan III Sobieski Palace (Palats Kornjakta)

This is a unique monument of the Renaissance period, one of only a few existing in Ukraine, and is the largest structure on Rynok Square. Until the late 16th century the area on which the palace stands was occupied by two smaller buildings, which were purchased by a Greek merchant named Constantine Kornjakt. He subsequently ordered the reconstruction of the two houses into a new grandiose edifice. Fragments of the older structures have been preserved and include the Gothic hall (an unmatched sample of Lviv’s Gothic influence) and the cross-sectional support beams that hold the third floor ceiling. Following Kornjakt’s death, the house was taken over Jakub Sobieski, the father of the future Polish king Jan III. The Polish-Russian Eternal Peace Treaty (anything with a name this lofty deserves to fail) was signed at the palace in 1686. Since 1908 the building has housed a museum. One of the brightest expositions of any of the city’s museums, the Royal Chambers, can be found here. The palace’s Italian Yard is a Lvivian favourite and is not to be missed. QC-3, Rynok pl. 6.

crowds, cafés and pack of lethargic stray dogs Rynok Square is the heart of this magnificent city. Throughout the Middle Ages stone weights and balances clanked with each sale, livestock pleaded and villains writhed in pain at the punishment stake. Amazingly, within this relatively small area there are 45 protected architectural monuments. Each structure has its own captivating history, but the oldest and most commonly wowed-about are Chorna Kamianytsa (Black Stone House) and Kornjakt Palace (also called King Jan III Sobieski Palace). Regardless the era, the government has always kept a keen eye on the square. The imposing structure in the middle is City HallQC-3/4. The Opera House

Many European theatres can boast an extraordinary construction history, but Lviv’s opera house is unique in that it is built on top of a river. The Poltva river flows beneath the stage and continues through centre deep beneath the asphalt (no doubt a contributor to the many sinkholes that tend to startle foreign visitors). The project was put up for tender and many top European architects tossed in their bids. It was Polish architect Zygmunt Gorgolewski designer of Kaiser Wilhelm Bridge in Berlin, the Gemäldegalerie in Dresden and the Vienna State Opera - who proposed the radical and intriguing idea of burying the small river beneath the opera. His plans also included the use of a concrete foundation, a first for Europe. With optimistic trepidation, the city planners agreed and the Opera House was completed in 1900. The building began to sink right away, but settled in the decades that followed. The structure’s stunning main façade is widely recognised and appears on the city’s emblem and is also displayed on the 20Hr note. Matinees usually begin at 11:00 and evening performances at 18:00.QA-2, Svobody prosp. 28, tel. (+380) 322 72 88 60, www.lvivopera.org. lviv.inyourpocket.com

What to see Churches & Cathedrals St. George Cathedral (Sobor Sviatoho Yura)

This Greek Catholic cathedral, constructed in 1744-1761, is a remarkable example of Rococo architecture. Located at the height of St. George Mount, the cathedral dominates the surrounding area, but doesn’t clash with the landscape. The main façade is set-off by a portal watched over by St. Athanasius and St. Leo (works by renowned sculptor Johann Georg Pinzel). In the cathedral itself, there lies a crypt where celebrated figures of the Ukrainian church are entombed. A park is nestled behind the palace and features a distinctive bell tower, which houses a remarkable bell. Cast in 1341, it is the oldest bell in Ukraine. The cathedral grounds are extremely calming and it’s hard to imagine that hard times once prevailed. Following the death of metropolitan Andrei Sheptytsky in March 1946, Soviet authorities coerced church leaders to denounce Rome and join the Russian Orthodox Church. Justice prevailed in 1989 as the Greek Catholic Church re-established itself and resumed operation of the cathedral. The last major event to take place at St. George happened 2001. While visiting Lviv, Pope John Paul II lived in the Metropolitan’s Palace.QG-3, Svyatoho Yura pl. 5. The Armenian Cathedral (Virmenskyi Sobor)

The history of Lviv is a tapestry woven by more than 100 nationalities. Armenians began inhabiting the city in the 14th century and quickly established their own quarter complete with a small cathedral completed in 1370. This original building perished in the fire of 1527. The structure that stands today blends a few architectural styles including Old Russian, Gothic and Armenian. The original bell tower was erected in 1571, but was later toppled by the Turks during a siege. The 19th century version of the bell tower is a restoration of the original. The courtyard provides a tranquil setting for the decorative column and figure of St. Christopher. The neighbouring buildings are those of a former Armenian bank, established in the 17th century, and Lviv’s oldest pawnshop.QC-3, Virmens’ka 7. facebook.com/LvivInYourPocket

The Assumption Church (Uspenska Tserkva) This vibrant example of Renaissance architecture has served as the centre of the Orthodox Christian faith for centuries. In the middle of the 16th century, the Assumption Brotherhood was founded here along with a printing press and a school. The church has experienced many episodes of ruin and reconstruction. The first Assumption Church was constructed of wood in 1344, but was destroyed by fire during an attack on Lviv by Polish feudal lords in 1350. The second church was built of stone in 1421 and experienced a relatively peaceful existence until it too was levelled by the great fire of 1527. (With the exception of City Hall and one other structure, the fire of 1527 devoured the entire city.) The replacement was completed in 1559 and, you guessed it, was completely destroyed by fire in 1571. The danger posed by fire was apparently driven home and the cathedral constructed in 1591 has survived until the present. Also located on the premises are Kornjakt’s Tower and the Chapel of Three Prelates.QB-3, Ruska 7.

The Bernardine Cathedral and Monastery This is one of the most inspiring sites in Lviv. The area around which the monastery stands has evolved over the years, but the monastery itself remains as architect Pavlo Rimlyanin envisioned. Constructed in the 17th century, the cathedral’s façade is protected by statues of the sacred order of Bernardine and the niches of the second tier hold images of Mary, Jesus and apostles Peter and Andrew. Be respectful, of course, but don’t be afraid to drop in on a prayer session. The cathedral’s magnificent interior is stirring. Originally located outside the city walls, the monastery had its own defences. A section of the original protective wall remains and can be viewed from Pidvalna street. The impressive column that stands before the cathedral supports a sculpture of St. Jan and was constructed in 1736. Much speculation exists concerning controversial events that have taken place within the monastery and its cells. One of the more famous cases concerns a letter missive (sanction of trade) addressed to Dracula.QD-5, Soborna pl. 1-3.

February - March 2014

What to see The Chapel of the Boims (Kaplytsia Boimiv)

Constructed in the early 17th century on the grounds of what was a city cemetery; this quaint structure was originally intended for use as a crypt by the Boim family. George Boim, a Lviv merchant and moneylender of Hungarian origin, started the project and his son, Paul-George, put the finishing touches on what would become a permanent feature in Lviv’s stunning centre. The side of the chapel is decorated with fretwork that gives the impression that the entire structure has been turned inside-out. Fresco portraits of George Boim and his wife Jadwiga can be viewed from Halyts’ka vul. The site has been protected by UNESCO since the 1970s.QC-4, Katedral’na pl. 1, tel. (+380) 32 274 40 47. Open 10:00 - 17:00. Closed Mon. Admission 10Hr, children 5Hr. The Dominican Cathedral (Dominicanskyi Sobor) The foundation of the Dominican Monastery dates back to the second half of the 13th century when Constance, the wife of Lev I of Galicia, commissioned the construction of a small wooden church in gratitude for the generosity of the local Dominican monks. Eventually destroyed by fire in 1408, a Gothic-era stone church was constructed in its place. The monastery, which could accommodate more than 100 monks, experienced its heyday beginning in 1612 when it become the central monastery of the Eastern European Dominican Order. In 1742 cracks were detected in the cathedral’s arch. An emergency meeting was convened and all rescue options were exhausted. Demolition commenced in 1749. Construction on the new cathedral, designed by architect Jan de Witte, began shortly after.

The Latin Cathedral (Latynskyi Sobor) This is a spectacular example of ancient Lviv’s Gothic influence. Officially known as the Archcathedral Basilica of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, it’s understandable why most just call it the Latin. Constructed in 1360, a relic was incorporated into the first foundation stone by King Kazimir the Great. Both the interior and exterior have evolved throughout the centuries, but the sanctuary and altar have remained unchanged. The cathedral was severely damaged in the fire of 1527. During its restoration in the 18th century, Baroque forms replace those of the Gothic era. The marvellous stained glass windows were incorporated at the end of the 19th century. A cemetery once existed on and around what is now Katedral’na ploscha (Cathedral Square). In 1765 all burials were relocated and further burials forbidden. The cemetery’s chapel, the Chapel of the Boim Family, remains on the site and is a protected historical monument. Pope John Paul II attended mass here on June 26th, 2001.QC-4, Katedral’na pl. 1.

The St. Peter and Paul Church of the Jesuit Order (Kostiol Jezuitiv) Located with its back turned to Svobody prosp. and the monument of Тaras Shevchenko, this is considered one of the more mystical places in Lviv. Much like the Jesuits themselves, the structure is meant to be kept an enigma and random tourists will find it difficult to gain full access. The church was constructed in the beginning of the 17th century and is modelled after the classic Church of the Gesù in Rome. The size of the church is impressive: 41metres long, 26 metres high and 22.5 metres wide. Lviv’s founding Jesuits are historically characterized as aggressive missionaries who quickly established a devout following. The sect was also known for its savvy in the area of property development. When they first settled in Lviv in the 16th century they possessed absolutely no property. When Austria ordered the abolition of the Jesuits 1848, the Lviv brotherhood owned property worth up to one million thalers (big bucks for that time). A section of the premises is currently occupied

The bell tower was constructed in 1865. During the Soviet era the site was used as a regional archive and as a school for would be printing workers. After restoration in 1972 the Dominican Monastery opened as a museum dedicated to the history of religion and atheism; the atheists have since left the building. Religious services have also resumed.

What to see lychakiv cemetery

Arriving in a city for the first time, most sane travellers don’t head straight for the local cemetery. But Lviv is unique in many ways, and one of the city’s most distinctive, beautiful and historic locales is the Lychakivs’ke Cemetery. Believe it or not, this is an ideal location to begin your exploration of Lviv’s diverse history, fascinating culture and stunning art: what Père Lachaise is to Paris, Lychakivs’ke is to Lviv. Officially established in 1786 by Austro-Hungarian authorities, the first burials actually took place in the 16th century. Since then, more than 400,000 inhabitants have been laid to rest beneath these hallowed and enigmatic grounds. Grave markers hold mournful tributes inscribed in Ukrainian, Russian, German, Polish, Armenian and Latin - evidence of the city’s diversity and turbulent past. Throughout the 19th century, plots were reserved by elite and middleclass families, artisans, scientists, spiritual leaders and politicians. For obvious reasons, this trend shifted during the Soviet era, and resulted in a fascinating contrast: wedged between ancient chapels and elite family crypts stand simple monuments, tributes to departed communists. Communal graves of soldiers and freedom fighters can also be found. The most renowned is the grave of the Lwów Eaglets. The Eaglets were Polish child soldiers who defended Lviv during the Polish-Ukrainian War (1918-1919). Lviv was ultimately seized by the Soviet Union in 1939; the grave was desecrated and turned into a dump in 1971. Despite opposition by Ukrainian nationalists, the site was restored and reopened in 2005. Lychakivs’ke is a protected historical monument. This is a much deserved designation, as it rivals many of Europe’s ancient necropolises in not only size, but in the beauty of its sculptures. Visitors are often stopped in their tracks by the remarkable statue of an angle gazing sadly towards heaven. Grief, strength and sacrifice are the dominant themes represented in these gripping monuments. Plan on spending at least a few hours if you hope to see them all, and for those with time limitations the sculptures located at the graves of Armenian Archbishop Samuel Stefanowicz, Dr. Józef Torosewicz and actress Regina Markovsky (Sleeping Beauty) are not to be missed.QK-4, Mechnykova 33, tel.

Lviv Museum of Ancient Relics It’s appropriate that this museum of ancient relics is located in one of Lviv’s most ancient churches. St. John the Baptist Church was originally built in 1250, a time of profound transition and growth in the newly established capital of Galicia. Though it has been reconstructed numerous times, an antique feel prevails. The museum opened in 1993 as a branch of the Lviv Art Gallery. Artistic works, sacral relics and archaeological findings tell the enthralling story of ancient life in the region. Dated to the second half of the 14th century, the collection’s “Lviv Virgin and Child” is one of the oldest existing Ukrainian icons.QC-1, Uzhgorods’ka 1, tel. (+380) 32 272 28 86. Open 10:00 18:00.

The collection of jewellery is also impressive and features a remarkable silver episcopal baton dated to the 11th-13th centuries.

It was later transferred to the city in 1913. Throughout its more than 100 years of existence an extraordinary 130 thousand exhibits have been collected.

Dentistry, gastroenterology, fertility treatments, orthopaedics and ophthalmology are among the most popular treatment programmes.
