one of the biggest cities of regional significance in Ukraine. It was a part of Poland until 1939 when it became part of Ukraine. It is currently the biggest city in the region and a major Ukrainian cultural center. The historic city center is on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

Lviv is located in the most Ukrainian region of Ukraine; during Soviet occupation, most signs were put only in Ukrainian. Because of its Polish and Austro-Hungarian history, Lviv has a Central European flair in its architecture that makes it one of the most beautiful cities in Eastern Europe.

Its tourist potential is yet undiscovered because infrastructure is rather undeveloped and most people don't speak any foreign languages except Russian and Polish. This is changing among young people, some of whom will speak English. Nevertheless, visiting Lviv is very rewarding for the pioneer traveller, as living is still pretty cheap by Western standards and the place has a truly authentic feeling, unlike places like Krakow or Prague, which are swamped with tourists.
