New tourist route "Ghosts of the Shtetls" has appeared on the "Mandruy Ukrainoyu" platform
A new tourist route titled "Ghosts of the Shtetls" has been launched on the "Mandruy Ukrainoyu" (Travel Ukraine) platform. This project aims to popularize the region's historical heritage and attract more travelers to explore the lesser-known corners of the Lviv region.
The total length of the route is approximately 200 kilometers. It passes through several important cities and towns, including Lviv, Zhovkva, Velyki Mosty, Sheptytskyi, Sokal, and Belz. Each of these places has its own unique history connected to Jewish culture and the traditions of past centuries.
The main goal of the initiative is to show tourists architectural landmarks and tell the stories of towns that were once called shtetls. This allows not only for the development of domestic tourism but also for preserving the memory of the cultural diversity that shaped these regions over many years.
The organizers hope that the new route will become popular among Ukrainians interested in history and local lore. Information about the locations is already available on the official portal, where one can find tips for planning the trip and a detailed description of each stop.
