The city

We started our tour at one of three cathedrals. Artem, our very knowledgeable guide gave us a thorough tour through the old center, opening doors to churches and chapels. The building with the three statues on the gable is the opera house.

The tower is on city hall which sits smack center of the old town and is surrounded by a square with many prominent houses lining it. The flag is blue and yellow.

There are little treasures to find everywhere. L'viv has been destroyed many times by fire, but in recent history the ravages of world wars have passed through and over the city quickly and without much damage.
