lviv//doorways

Welcome to the Ukraine!

From Przemysl, the Warsaw Diaries took a cheap bus to the border (2 zloty)  and then crossed the border by foot to the Ukraine. Crossing the border on foot is the fastest way to cross the border. After crossing the border, walk about 100 meters and turn left into a parking lot where there are cheap buses to Lviv waiting (a single ride costs about $2 US) which take you to the main train station (last photo). Check out the interior of the bus which is reminiscent of Berber buses in Morocco because both kinds of buses are very colorful and have paper decorations, religious relics and decorative things hanging from the ceiling.
