    The Rynok Square at the heart of Lviv is full of character, with well kept buildings and cobbles and independent shops, bars and cafes on every street corner that really bring the square to life.

    The local people also showcase their creativity in a way that makes Lviv a really attractive place to visit. Concerts on the square in the evening are a great example of how locals foster a sense of solidarity within the square.

    We attended a beautiful New Year's Eve concert that combined orchestral pieces, ballet and opera. There was no dialogue so it was easy to enjoy as English speakers since everything was conveyed musically or through movement. The opera itself it stunning and they even gave out masquerade masks to visitors and shot confetti. A very unique experience!

    Something like 350 steps (not including the walk to the 4th floor where the entrance to the tower is) on a sometimes narrow wooden staircase. Great views of Lviv once you get to the top, though kids may have a hard time seeing over the top of the wall. Beware the bell chiming every quarter hour, but be sure not to miss the view of the clock workings on the way up/down. 50 uah, seems open every day. I imagine it can get busy, even on a Sunday morning there was a school group.

    This is a unique museum under the open skies, presenting the ancient architecture of the whole of Ukraine in one place. It is an ideal place to see in one place how people were living and what their homes, churches, and workshops looked like.
    I would recommend this place to visit to regular people, and also for kids who want to learn about the history

    Stunning view for amazing Lviv. Worthy just to go and see. Of course crowded place, but for the view is really worthy.

    Firstly this is misnamed. Its not the Venice Or even Venitian Palace, it's called the Korniakt Palace and Italian courtyard which is on the Rynek / Old Town Square and is part of the Historical Museums of Lviv. You can have ticket just to see this renaissance courtyard or also a ticket to see the royal apartments of the Polish King Sobieski which have been beautifully restored. For the courtyard, you'll need 15 minutes and for the royal apartments 30 minutes. Better signage for descriptions would help or some kind of QR audio guided tour.

    Entrance is on Stepanyka.
    Museum has both permanent and temporary exhibits, which you pay for separately (at the same ticket booth) and are in different directions once you enter (temporary to the right, permanent to the left). Permanent collection had an excellent collection of Ukrainian artists, among others. Permanent collection has explanations in English alongside the Ukrainian, the temporary did not (though painting names often did). The temporary collection when I was there had special exhibitions of Ocip Vaskiv, Pavlo Kovach, and Mykhailo Dzyndra (sculpture), which I enjoyed quite a bit.  Popular with schoolhouse it seems (even on a Sunday!).  Not huge, manageable if combining with the nearby Potocki palace.

    If you only wanna see the courtyard it’s not worth paying for. I suppose that watching a live concert in the evening may be fun but paying the entry fee just to spend a moment there is a waste.

    Absolutely incredible massage. I've had many massages and I'm a fan of them in general, but this was the best by far! I felt so fully relaxed and welcomed. The building and decor are very nice too. Would 100% recommend.

We are considering having a trip to one of the non-Schengen countries (Ukraine, Serbia, Croatia, Bulgaria, Romania) for about 9 days in August ... but we can't decide !
Our type of holiday is wandering around, old architecture and historic sights, nice restaurants and cafes, shopping and also amusement parks and theme parks!
So,,which country will you suggest?!
Answer: I've been to 4 of the 5 countries you listed (yet to make it to Bulgaria). Croatia, the coastal and islands regions at least, are very nice but will be crowded at that time. If you were going in the period of September to November I'd definitely say Croatia for natural beauty. As Max and others said it is significantly more expensive than the other countries.

Montenegro on the coast is also very nice, especially the Bay of Kotor area, but is also very popular these days in Summer.

Only stopped in Belgrade so don't know about other parts of Serbia but the older part of the city is nice IMO.

I've only passed through Transylvannia on a train to Bucharest but from what I have heard from my Romanian friend and photos I've seen, and views from the train, this area could be recommended. The cities in this area of Sibiu and Sighisoara, two of the 7 historical German towns of Transylvannia are recommended. Bucharest, the center at least, is also quite nice (well a lot better than 30 years ago anyway) after restoration work has been done.

Ukraine is recommendable not so much from the natural beauty point maybe compared with say Croatia or Transylvannian towns (Though of course there is the Carpathian ranges also in Western Ukraine) but there are some nice histoical city scapes with some nice architecture across various cities in Ukraine (I haven't been to West Ukraine but most notably Lviv has a high reputation in this regard).

Ukraine will probably be the cheapest, and in my own personal experience view, along with Slovenia, has the friendliest people and customer service, bar a few babushkas at train station ticket windows etc.I have to say on the people front, though I met some nice and friendly people in Croatia and Serbia, I thought the national pride element was also most visible in those two countries.

As far as theme parks go, I have no idea! All I know is EuroDisney and Tivoli, both in the Schengen area.
