My wife and I went to L'vov. It is a very beautiful city, with strong Polish influence. There are also some very beautiful churches there; most are Greek Catholic, I think. The Polish Cathedral is a must see.

There is also a restored ancient Armenian church there.

Regarding the breakaway Orthodox churches in Kiev: visit them. The local Orthodox are aware of the differences, but most go to either whenever. The Vladimir cathedral is very beautiful, and there is the Uspensky(?) monastery which has some stunning icon-work.
