A strange Soviet legacy, dominance of Eastern Orthodoxy, hypnotic history, confluence of architecture, literature and music, the unforeseen travel encounters, relics of The Battle of Poltava, the openness of local area and a glimpse of socialism, this holy land of Ukraine deserves your presence. The place is largely known for culture, art, literature and weaving; travellers from around the world come here to buy extraordinary embroidery work. The great churches of the Rus', Austro-Hungarian architectural monuments, Eastern Orthodox churches and secular or vernacular architecture vastly dominates the region. St. Michael's Golden-Domed Cathedral in Kiev and other architecture of the monuments are admirable and needs attention of the history lovers. Moreover, Ukrainian culture is highly influential and showcases diversity.

Ukraine is also a home to shimmering street café scenes, inns and art galleries that attract tourists from far reaching areas of Europe. The tourist friendly Lviv features rich heritage, architecture and castle parks that makes it the hot favourite travel destination. The night life and street scenes are uniquely theatrical that encourage visitors to stroll around sipping a mug of beer and holding the hands of your girlfriend. Old murals, statues, and metal figurines can influence your wildest imagination; much cherished rural tradition, spectacular fairy tale buildings, old facades, and cemeteries are brimmed with elegance and style.

The old school museum and Theatre of Opera and Ballet make it a great city of oblast significance and cultural centre. Stryiskyi Park is one of the most dazzling places for a lavish drool or a green blanket ground for frolicsome. The landscapes, wooded terrain, gravel plain and narrow passages make the park enticing. If you have your own fantasies, then you can roam with your partner to unveil some of the most grotesque figures scattered around the Lviv.

Nearby coffee shops and stringing boulevards adds swirling romance and allows you to quench your burning desire. Nature lovers glide down to the Carpathian Biosphere Reserve that features enchanting forest and rare species of flora and fauna. Of course, silence screeches through the forest, but as you enter, you will listen to the sounds of monkeys and other native animals that rule here in ruse-filled environment.
