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.

My advice is to wear comfortable shoes. The cobblestone streets leading to the church can be a bit tough on your feet, and you'll want to explore the area after visiting.

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.
