Located in Western Ukraine, Ivano-Frankivsk is the administrative centre of the Ivano-Frankivsk region.  A historical city, it was initially called Stanislawow and then changed to Stanislav in 1939 during the occupation of the Soviet Union, and then it later in 1962, came to be known as Ivano-Frankivsk. 

The city was built initially as a fortress to shield the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth from uprisings and invasions in the region. A quaint and gorgeous city, Ivano-Frankivsk offers visitors a lot to explore, see and do.

Things to do in Ivano-Frankivsk

A city which can be totally explored on foot, Ivano-Frankivsk is much more than the transit point to the breath-taking Ukrainian Carpathians. With its historical monuments, European-styled houses, beautiful and peaceful gardens and parks, it also serves as a great location for a relaxing getaway from bustling big cities.

Nezalezhnosti Street

An enjoyable pastime in the city would be to take a stroll down the famous Nezalezhnosti Street. Featuring lots of restaurants, coffee houses, shops and a lot of life, there is always something to see on Nezalezhnosti. The sights and sounds here include street artists and performances, so you have some background music to tap your feet to as you stroll, shop, or just watch. 

Climb the Ratusha

The Ratusha, the only rathaus built in the Art Deco in Ukraine, stands at 50 m in the Market Square of Ivano-Frankivsk downtown. The top of this wedding cake-like designed building has a 360 degree view of the city from the top. 

A fascinating building to explore, the Ratusha has stood the test of time, and has been destroyed and rebuilt several times since the city was established. The building has evolved over time as the city passed from one state or empire to the other. It is a truly beautiful and historical landmark of not just the city, but also the country as a whole.

Shevchenko City Park

Used to be a grove of wild oak, the park was incorporated with cobblestone walkways in the twentieth century and much later, the stone of love from Galilee was added to the park, brought right from the site where Jesus turned water to wine at a wedding.

The park attracts a lot of couples on dates, proposals and even for photographs on their wedding day.
