Not that much interesting
Dec 2019 • Friends
After reading the comments and recommendations we have been to this graveyard. From a graveyard perspective it’s definitely maintained well, clean and different. But from a touristic perspective I’m not sure if it’s a must see especially if you’re in Lviv for a limited time. Entrance fee is 40 each so it’s affordable and you can take a tram to get there.

A forest of earthly delights; wander around in this forest on many levels taking in the beautiful monuments of famous Ukrainian scientists, musicians and artists.

A Little Overhyped
Sept 2019
All the guidebooks describe this as a must see but, in all honesty, if you've seen Highgate Cemetery or Père Lachaise - and if you have no knowledge of Ukrainian heroes - you don't have to make time for it. It's a peaceful place, in a pretty part of town, so it's in no way disappointing, but it's not quite the unmissable spectacle that most travel sites suggest. If your time in Lviv is limited, maybe give this place a miss and focus on other things.

This has to be one of the most beautiful cemeteries in the world. Set in a forest & park-like setting it is very peaceful as you meander among the sites and immerse yourself in the history of the region.

Beautiful
Oct 2019 • Couples
This graveyard is beautiful. The gravestones, monuments and crypts are stunning and the view is worth the visit alone. You can see the Carpathian mountains in the distance and encounter red squirrels rummaging around the trees. When we visited it was a beautiful sunny autumn day. It is a bit of a walk to get to and is large. To see it all would take dedication but it is definitely worth visiting.
There is a small ticket price to enter and you can pay extra for a guided tour if you wish.

Big cemetary with a huge nomber of graves with different decorated tombs. Very interesting to walk in it and see.

amazing sculptures and chapels
Aug 2019
I never though I would admire a graveyard that much. Around 400000 graves in the area. Amazing sculptures and chapels. As I checked I spent 2,5 hours while walking around.

Peaceful historical cemetery
Aug 2018 • Solo
Quite a large area, the cemetery has significant history. It's also a pleasant walk for a short while or long, depending how much ground you want to cover.

Is also a nice 20-30 min walk from Lviv old town.
