Lviv - again!

Just saw a car with New York license plate in Lviv (how???).

 


Visited the Kiss Place.

 

Met a friendly red cat on the street (his owner took him for a walk).

 

 

And showed Jeff the Turkish cannon ball from the Turkish siege of Lviv in 1672 (the Turks could never conquer the city). The ball is displayed on the Roman Catholic cathedral's outer wall. 

 


Next to the cathedral stands an old black crypt called The Boims' Chapel. It belonged to a wealthy family during the Medieval times. There used to be a cemetery at this cathedral in old times but today it's paved and people walk around on top of it and even sit at a cafe and drink coffee. Most don't even suspect that there are many old bones below their feet. Creepy, isn't it? (Sorry, it's a bit crooked - I took this photo with my phone when I was still learning how to take photos with a phone and not with a camera.)
