Shos Tsikave

Lviv


This tiny emporium is the antidote to Ukraine’s souvenir industry and offers one-of-a-kind handmade crafts, some produced by disabled children. It’s buried deep behind the facades on pl Rynok’s southern flank – enter along the alleyway next to Lvivski Plyatsky. Also has a tranquil courtyard cafe.
