Shops and shopping
Lviv may not be swimming with swish Western styled shops, but on the other hand, treasure after treasure can be found in the region's traditional arts and crafts.
Whether it's hand-painted 'pysanky' eggs, lacquer boxes or linen shirts, finding something with quality will be a pleasure. And besides the shops dotted around the Old Town, visiting a market is a must. In this respect, haggling is very much par for the course. Stall owners will certainly not turn away a fist full of dollars, but bear in mind that you may be playing the Father Christmas role by paying five times the local price.

Perfect quality and pricing! Sportswear, footwear, swimwear, sportbags and other equipment - all in one place! Visit PROSPORTstore Lviv!
OK, we found the bookshop, which was quite good actually, but what does that photo have to do with this place? I'm lost!
You can find amazing little treasures at the market, but be prepared for a friendly haggle.
Very inspiring and charming place to visit! But for those who would like to have sophisticated and modern shopping I would recommend a big shopping moll very close to the folk art market - Magnus. Variety of products, highly professional staff...to be honest I was thrilled by what I've seen. On top of that you can have a nice relaxed "etentje" on the last floor together with the wonderful view on the old town. Highly, highly recommended!
A lovely market with lots of colourful folk jackets and clothes. Painted Easter eggs were fantastic. Would definitely recommend coming here!
I love this market. Have been there several times and always buy my Christmas presents there. Vendors are friendly and there's a great selection
I liked the atmosphere at this market very much. The people wherevery friendly and took the time telling everything I wanted to know about there products.
We loved this market and managed to get all our presents here! Wish we'd bought some more for ourselves
