A
Pysanky Museum
The freshly repainted Pysanky Museum showcases the colourful, hand-painted Easter eggs (pysanky) that are a Ukrainian tradition. Any visiting Australians will immediately rename this the ‘Big Egg’ as the two-storey museum is itself that shape – reminding one of the many ‘big things’ that infamously dot the landscape down under. Inside, there are hundreds of pysanky, decorated in various regional designs.

B
Museum of Hutsul Folk Art
Behind the Pysanky Museum, cut diagonally left towards the next street, to the Museum of Hutsul Folk Art. This well-curated exhibition is probably the best of its kind in Ukraine, with decorated stove tiles and other ceramics, musical instruments, carved wooden tools, boxes, furniture, traditional and embroidered folk dress and woven wall-hangings.
