Introducing Lutsk
Infinitely more charming than Ternopil to the south and Rivne to the east, Volyn’s chief city of Lutsk has a split personality. The modern town is a relatively successful example of Soviet architecture, with broad boulevards and monumental squares creating a feeling of freedom and space. But the real jewel in Lutsk’s crown is its historic quarter. A small, refurbished enclave of cobbled streets is lined with architecture from centuries past, harking back to Lutsk’s Lithuanian, Polish and Russian history. It hardly gives, say, Krakow much competition, but in Ukraine it’s a rarity.
