Top Architecture Spots in Lviv

If you wanna save some cash, try snagging your tickets on a weekday instead of the weekend. I found the same seats were cheaper on Tuesday compared to Friday!

Check out the small museum inside if you have time; it’s pretty interesting and not too crowded, plus it gives you some great context about the cathedral's history... I really enjoyed it!

Don't miss the view from outside the cathedral! There are some great spots around the steps to take pics, especially with the gardens in bloom; I regretted not getting enough shots.

For the best photo ops, head to the side gardens. The views of the facade are fantastic, especially just before sunset!

I suggest bringing a small coin for the donation box. Some reviewers mentioned that a little goes a long way for helping maintain this beautiful place!

Bring some snacks or a small bottle of water; the nearby cafes can get pricey, and it’s nice to take a break in the garden!

I recommend checking out any special exhibitions they might have; it adds a unique touch to the experience beyond just the architecture.

If you're into photography, early morning around 9 AM is fantastic for soft lighting and fewer tourists in your shots

Grab a map at the entrance; I found it super helpful to navigate through the palace and appreciate the details without missing anything.

I suggest checking out the church during the morning around 9 AM when it's less crowded. You get to enjoy the peace and quiet to really soak in the beautiful architecture without the hustle-bustle.

If you're a fan of history, don’t skip the small museum inside. It has some gems! I wasn’t expecting much, but it was a pleasant surprise and it only costs a small amount to enter.

I think you should bring some snacks or a drink if you plan to stay longer. There's not much around and I regretted not packing a little something. Plus, you'll save money that way.

I suggest taking a guided tour if you can. The history behind the building is fascinating, and I learned so much more about its significance than I would have on my own.

If you're a fan of architecture, try to set aside at least an hour to fully appreciate the details of the building. I rushed through, and I ended up wishing I had taken my time.

Consider visiting on a weekday instead of the weekend. It was much quieter when I went on a Tuesday, making it easier to enjoy the space without feeling rushed.

Pack a light snack and water. The café inside can get busy and slightly pricier, so I had a quick snack outside to save some cash and enjoy the atmosphere.
