Stryi (ukr. Стрий), a city in western Ukraine, located in Lviv Oblast, in the valley of the Strypa River. It is one of the most important cities in the region, with a rich history and economic, administrative and cultural significance.
Stryi has an industrial tradition, including food, textile, metal and timber industries. Modern Stryj, despite being a smaller city, serves as an important commercial and administrative center in the region. The city is also home to a number of small and medium-sized businesses, as well as agri-food processing plants that process agricultural products from the surrounding area.
The city is also an important transportation hub, thanks to its location on rail and road routes connecting western Ukraine with the rest of the country.
Stryisk is located in western Ukraine, about 70 kilometers southwest of Lviv. The city is well connected to other centers in the region, thanks to its transportation network, including rail and road links. Its proximity to the mountains, especially the Carpathian Mountains, makes the city a picturesque setting and a convenient starting point for tourists heading to the mountains.
Stryisk has a rich cultural tradition, with numerous events held throughout the year. The city is an important local center that nurtures Ukrainian folk culture, music, dances and handicrafts. The region also hosts festivals that attract tourists and locals.
The bus station where our coaches stop is located on Hindenburgstrasse, not far from the main train station. It is actually the center of the city, so you will reach the nearest and one of the most important points of interest in the city, St. Vitus Basilica, on foot in twenty minutes.
On the other hand, heading north you will reach two parks, full of sculptures and installations, designed by some of Europe's greatest artists.
If you're a Borussia Moenchengladbach fan, but don't want to devote your trip solely to the match, consider visiting Skulpturpark Abteiberg or Bunter Garten, two gardens. In the latter you will also hit the botanical garden and arboretum.
The Abteiberg Museum, adjacent to the aforementioned St. Vitus Basilica, is also worthy of your attention. There, the works of Andy Warhol and Gerghard Richter await you.
The museum is a great place to visit.
Monchengladbach can furthermore be a base for exploring nearby larger cities such as Cologne and Düsseldorf. Accommodation in Monchengladbach should be slightly lower than in the state capital. In addition, Monchengladbach, through its proximity to the Belgian and Dutch borders, can be a stop on a trip specifically to the Benelux countries. Although, in our opinion, the number of attractions in the city makes Monchengladbach as a city able to fill a tourist's calendar for virtually a whole week.
