You didn't specify which sights you are interested in. In Lviv I will try to help: In Lviv, I recommend starting your acquaintance with the sights from climbing the tower of the City Hall, you have the opportunity to kill two birds with one stone - to inspect the city center from a height of 70 meters and taste the spirit of antiquity, so to speak, climbing half-worn tower steps. Since the Town Hall is located on Rynok Square, you have the opportunity to enjoy the architectural ensemble of the square, four fountains and, going along any of the four streets that leave the square, you will stumble upon sights that are full there - the Cathedral Church and the Boim Chapel, the ensemble of the Assumption Church, the remains of city fortifications, Arsenal (there you can visit the museum of weapons), the royal Arsenal (there is now an archive), the Powder Tower with sleeping lions (now the house of the Architect). By the way, near the Arsenal there are the ruins of the Golden Rose synagogue and a little further the fortress wall with the entrance city gates, entering which you will see an old church and monastery, successfully disfigured by modern "restorers" in accordance with the rural taste of the abbot.

There is a pharmacy-museum on the square (I recommend visiting the dungeon there), walking past it you will run into the Dominican Cathedral (now the Museum of the History of Religion, although the most interesting exposition of the interrogation of a heretic by the church tribunal was removed), past the house with a drunken centaur, go out to the Transfiguration Church and the ensemble of the Armenian Church , behind the Preobrazhenskaya - the famous Vernissage, the Zankovetska and Opera theaters (you can buy a ticket to see the interiors) From the Opera, walk along the "hundred-meter" past the political spot, the Shevchenko monument (opposite - the clock museum with the Statue of Liberty on the pediment), the fountain of the Virgin with tritons (where sometimes you can watch the performance), a monument to Adam Mickiewicz. Opposite the fountain is Krpernik Street, on which the Potocki Palace is located (a chic museum of painting and interiors). The Lychakiv cemetery is very interesting for inspection (the end of Pekarskaya Street) from there it is not far from the Museum of Folk Architecture and Life, like Pirogovo, only much more interesting, better and more beautiful. In the Jesuit church, there are night theatrical tours in the dungeon. Buy from local travel agencies. In the area of ​​​​Rynok Square there are a lot of cafes for tourists with very interesting amusements and surroundings. I'll tell you if you're interested.

Very interesting! Interested in castles, churches / cathedrals, everything related to history. I also heard about the thermal pools of Transcarpathia. Here, as they say, we need memorable places + beautiful landscapes

The most touristy cafes in Lviv: Staroyevreyska Street - house number 22 Under the Golden Rose, a colorful Jewish restaurant, where there are no prices on the menu, but you have to bargain with a waiter, there you can take pictures in a black hat with paces, number 48 restaurant House of Legends and Secrets where a dragon sits comfortably on the facade, which is usually fire-breathing and naturally steals beautiful tourists (true-truth), visitors are served by gnomes (honestly). pl. Market, 14 Hide and Seek, no sign on the door, knock. Ask the waiter for dumplings or ask to turn on the raspberry, get a surprise. Which I will not say. Armenian, 20 restaurant-museum Gas lamp, where at the entrance you will meet Jan Zeg (you can take pictures with him), st. Serbian, 7 cafe Masoch, waitresses with whips and in leather corsets, handcuffs and collars for visitors. At the entrance is a statue of Sacher Masoch himself. Put your hand in his pocket and he is waiting for you there. . . .
big surprise. Rynok, 10 Lviv Coffee Mine, informative, mysterious, fun. And the most favorite - Veronica on Shevchenko, 21 miracle confectionery and Confectionery on Staroyevreyskaya, 3. Another great place - the House of Scientists on the street. November Order, 6 There are chic interiors, grab a dress for a photo.

4 days total? Then you should not aim at Transcarpathia, especially since the baths there are quite miserable. Better pay attention to the surroundings of Lviv. For example, Olesko Castle, an old monastery, a restaurant in a knightly style. Podgortsy is near Olesko, here the church is very beautiful and the castle palace. Zolochev can. To the north, not far from the beautiful and well-groomed Krekhovsky monastery, the cave monastery of Stradch is very close to Lviv. The town of Zhelkva is very pretty (Zhovkva). Also not far away is the Unevskaya Lavra - there is a whole collection of crucifixes from old churches. For good, 4 days is just for Lviv itself and a couple of cities around. IMHO

Olesko, Podgortsy is generally on your way - right on the highway, though the new road runs along the ring road Olesko, but look at it along the way. Along the way, also do not miss the Pochaev Lavra, Podkamen (an ancient monastery, a unique stone and a Cossack cemetery) and Kremenets, just a pleasant old town with a large hill with the ruins of a castle. It's not exactly down the road, but don't stray too far from the path-worthy places.

A tourist train with an audio guide departs from Rynok Square. It passes by all the sights located around Rynok Square. Thus, you get an overview of the center of Lviv and take care of your legs)! And the Town Hall, unfortunately, is under reconstruction (although I was back in October, maybe everything was already finished by NG). And on Rynok Square in the Town Hall building there is an information tourist center. There you can take a map of Lviv, with which it is very convenient to walk around the center on foot. The entrance to the ITC is located behind the statue of Neptune in the Town Hall building.

You need to walk both along Rynok Square itself and around it. There are many interesting places there. And yet, there are chocolate workshops where you can buy both handmade chocolate and the production of the Lviv chocolate factory. the price for a tile factory-15 UAH. (this is approximately 60 Russian rubles). Not everywhere there is chocolate in a hard wrapper (cardboard)0, but everywhere there is in paper. I always bring coffee from Lviv. You can buy it in the same chocolate confectionery.
About where to eat:

You should definitely try cheesecake in Lviv. This is such a cheese cake, very tasty. Delicious everywhere. differs only in serving: in some places it is poured with chocolate and served with warm vanilla sauce.
Ask the locals how to get to Vernissage. This is such a local souvenir market, near the theater of Maria Zankovetskaya and not far from the square. Market. There you can buy both Lviv souvenirs (mugs with the inscription Lvo, magnets, household bags, pictures, etc.), as well as embroidered tablecloths (and you can immediately see how they are embroidered), various antique things, embroidered shirts, various knitted things. Bargain.

Vernissage in general is very deteriorated. It used to be possible to buy real works of art there, for example, unique wooden products of Hutsul masters. Now the quality of products has fallen significantly, so rough crafts. Painting is like looking for a pearl in a pile of empty shells, but you can find something worthwhile. The price of embroidered products at the Vernissage is much higher than in our city, as it is more designed for diaspora. Eating in Lviv is not a problem, I would advise the Milk Bar on Copernicus (the famous Cow), to the left of the Potocki Palace, if you stand facing it. Earlier in Lviv, on every corner there were patties just for tourists - broth in glasses, coffee, milk, tea, jelly, boiled eggs and twenty types of pies: baked, deep-fried, sweet and not, puffs, rolls with cream. Ah, nostalgia. I highly recommend visiting the Cathedral of St. Jura and the Church of St. Elzhbety (neo-Gothic, the only one of its kind in Ukraine), although the Uniates turned it into the church of Elizabeth and Olga, spoiling the historical altar and not really restoring it. Admire the huge monument to Bandera nearby. All this in the area of ​​Railway Station Square. There are also inexpensive restaurants there.

As I understand it, the question is no longer about Lviv, but also about the surrounding area. There, they asked for the IvanoFr region and the Lvov region) and even about Transcarpathia. Although only 4 days

You can’t embrace the immensity! Although I can advise this route: leave Lviv along Lychakivska Street in the direction. Ternopil, then Vinniki (baroque church 1738) -s. Vyzhnyany (church of 1400) return to the track and follow the signs and the map to get to the Unevsky monastery. 18 km. from Univ - with. Svirzh, where the chic Svirzh castle is located, then drive to Zolochev (we examine the castle, the Chinese palace, churches and the Zolochevsky courtyard on Shashkevich street) then through the village. Sasov in Podgortsy (the castle and settlement of Plisnensk and the monastery, to which the sign leads). then a direct road to Olesko, admire another castle. For color, you can eat there, because. There is a very interesting restaurant in the basement of the castle. I advise the Zhovkva route (55 monuments of world importance) - with. Krekhov (monastery and church of St. Paraskeva) and with. STRADCH! (Ancient cave monastery, miraculous images and many cases of healing, the Jerusalem Stradetsky Cross Way with chic sculptural groups, an old church and magnificent nature). Or you can visit the Dovbush rocks, a historical, mystical, and simply very beautiful place, next to a hut with a national menu (be sure to take banush, potato pancakes, honey drink, liver).
