Each of us has places that he visited a long time ago, and which are warm memories in his heart ... This place for me is the town Stryi in the Lviv region, at a distance of 70 km from my city Lviv.
Once upon a time, when I was 30 years old, I often went here for business, and 20 years after that it called me again :)I was invited to come for a city holiday and I got on the train again and plunged into my memories of my youth ...
The first thing you see when you leave the station is an old two-storey building built under the reign of Emperor Franz.
Autumn adds charm to this cozy town. We slowly go on the linden alley, enjoying!
Here is an inscription that says that in 1985 the city was 600 years old.
It has a rich history, traditions and lifestyle. The residents here are proud, intelligent and creative. And most importantly, you can enjoy the peaceful, measured life of the town, where people mostly travel by bicycle or on foot, there are no trams and shuttle buses.
We return to the main market square and look for a good place to drink coffee) Here is a local network, which is interestingly called "Coffee from Stryjka"
An ancient Gothic-style church stands over the area. I come close to take a photo of a gorgeous wall that shows the Catholic origin of the temple.
The main place I hasten to visit is the mountain river, where I spent a lot of time in my youth. A cozy alley leads me there. The water runs fast on stones and gives me energy.
The town of Stryi is located at the beginning of the Carpathian Mountains, with very clean air and many interesting places to visit within 30 km.
We arrived when the famous Stryi Talent Festival was taking place in the city. Many creative teams were presented and interesting entertainment.
Here you can find masterpieces of ancient wooden architecture. As if I was in a place of antiquity and comfort.
And this is the coffee I drink in a cup that says "With love for Stryi" :)
Thank you for your time :)
