Adapters for more foreign electrical societies are not easy to find in Lviv, so bring your own.
Floors
Ukrainians consider the floor on the ground to be the first floor and so one.
Money
The national currency is the hryvnia (Hr). Paper bills carry denominations of 1, 2, 5, 10, 50, 100, 200 and 500 hryvnias. Another word to the wise: two versions exist of the 1, 2, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200 hryvnia bills, and both are accepted everywhere. There are 100 kopecks in a hryvnia, with 1, 2, 5, 10, 25, 50 kopeck and 1Hr coins.
You’ll have no problem finding currency exchange points, but rates are better from central street kiosks. According to the new law you need to show your passport or ID to exchange money.
