Poland 🇵🇱
#thingstodo
Poland is one of the country that has the richest history in Europe. Recent trip to Poland was an unforgettable experience for me to learn the local culture and the history. There’s lots of historical buildings in there such as church, old town, catholic cathedral/ I really liked walking around the city area and that impressed me a lot with the unique architecture.

Wroclaw Poland 🇵🇱
#thingstodo
Wroclaw is one of the best city in Poland and this place is full of rich history and culture. The architecture in here also inspired me a lot with the unique style and colourful houses with the painting. I have spent total 3 days in Wroclaw and I will say that is enough for you to explore the whole city. The first thing is the Aleksander Fredro Monument which is a bronze statue dedicated to polish famous author Aleksander Fredro. His story was incredible and it is a must visit place in Wroclaw . Moreover, I have found out their railway line is beautifully built with the combination of those houses behind . I really liked the structure. Besides, the colourful houses also captured my attention a lot , those painting just added an extra beauty inside of the city.

📍 Wroclaw, Poland 🇵🇱
💡 Wrocław is divided into two main tourist areas: the Old Town and the Cathedral Island.
The Old Town is full of Eastern European-style architecture, such as the Town Hall, St. Elizabeth's Church, the Market Hall, and the rows of houses around the Central Market Square. It is not large, and you can see all the attractions in about an hour.
The Cathedral Island is named after the Gothic double-towered Cathedral of the Virgin Mary. Visitors to the Cathedral Island must pass through the Tumski Bridge. Locals believe that locking a lock on the bridge will bless their love, so there are many locks left by lovers on the bridge.
💡 樂斯拉夫基本分為兩大景點區：舊城區與教堂島。
舊城區充滿東歐特色建築，如市政廳、聖伊莉莎白教堂、集市大廳及中央集市廣場四周的排屋。因其面積不大，大約一小時閒逛便可將所有景點盡收眼簾。
教堂島則是因哥德式的雙塔聖母主教堂而冠與此名。到訪教堂島必會途經圖蒙斯基橋，因當地人認為把所扣在橋樑上便可保佑愛情堅固，所以橋上有眾多戀人留下的鎖。

Dwarf hunting in Wroclaw
How do you make a city very attractive to young children? You place several hundred dwarfs spread over the entire territory. That is how the Polish city of Wroclaw reasoned and immediately they had a new tourist attraction. The 'dwarf hype' has now grown into a real quest through the city. You can even get a map at various souvenir shops and tourist offices.
Of course, the dwarves in Wroclaw owe their existence to the history of the city. By the 1980s, communism was still in power in Poland. In some cities, including Wroclaw, this was accompanied by fierce resistance. The Orange Alternative Movement was a nonviolent protest movement that stood out in a very special way. The members walked through Wroclaw dressed as dwarfs and also drew dwarfs through the streets. Of course there was nothing illegal about that. These absurd actions contributed to the fall of communism in Poland.
In 2001, a first statue of a dwarf was unveiled in memory of this heroic protest. 'Papa Dwarf' has now become a real hero and has been joined by more than 400 other dwarfs. You will undoubtedly encounter a lot of them during your citytrip to the Polish city of Wroclaw.

Wroclaw University Museum
The highlight of Wroclaw University Museum is two baroque halls dating back to the beginnings of the institution (18th century), when it was still a Jesuit academy. One of them has been completely destroyed in WWII and then painstakingly restored; the other one can be seen more or less in its original glory.
Other than that, you can see an exhibition of scientific instruments, some Greek sculptures, and the explanation of history of the institution, as well as climb a viewing tower. All attractions are in one building and buying a ticket for all of them vs. just the halls is just a 2 PLN difference (14 PLN in total), so I'd recommend seeing everything.
One additional note, one of the halls is currently undergoing renovation, so the visit is limited to a balcony overlooking it, but you can still see most of the decorations inside, so it's still worth it.

Botanical Garden of the University of Wroclaw
We took tram 9 from our hotel to get to the Botanic Garden (Ogrod botaniczny) and passed on our way the market hall at tram stop Hala Targowa.
We got off the tram at pl. Bema and followed the disappearing tram for 300 m to get to the entrance of the garden in H Sienkiewicsa 23. Normal entrance fee is 15 PLN but as pensioners we paid 10 PLN.
Just after paying up we turned to the right into an alley and its end round the corner we found Café Flora. We went there for a nice cup of coffee and a piece of lovely fruit tart. For the two of us it cost 36 PLN.
To the side of the café we found three or four greenhouses full of green plants. To an expert on plants it would be interesting.
When we visited, the garden was full of colours. The garden was smaller than we had anticipated so we had a nice walk around just short of an hour and left. Have a look at my photos to get an idea.

Japanese Garden
We visited the Japanese Gardens and were very impressed. Although not large, there is plenty spaces to 'lose yourself' and relax the rush of everyday living.
Beautifully designed peaceful garden to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. Tranquil seating areas, stunning views, many bridges and water features to admire. In order to enjoy the stunning grounds I’d allow 45 – 60 mins, however, if you’re rushing it can be done quickly in 30.
Wonderful place to get in touch with nature and view some amazing horticultural delights. Take a book and sit on one of the many rustic seats that surround the area, or marvel at the dragon flies that hover from one water lily to the next. Entrance fee is only 4 Zloty (less than £1)
The gardens are easily reached from the city centre by getting a tram (Nos 2, 4 or 10). Get off at the zoo and you're there.
Either before or after you've been to the gardens, go for a relaxing drink in the centennial hall restaurant which overlooks the fountains. This is also well worth doing.

Cathedral Island (Tumski Island)
This island is called the oldest part of Wroclaw. With the river Odra around in all direction is a beauty. I was there three times for seeing things I had missed the other times. One time I was there for visiting John The Baptist church. Took a little pray there for myself and bought tickets for walk up some stairs and use elevator so I could have a lovely view over the town and Ostrow Tumski how is the polish name of the island. Some calling it the cathedral island.
Another celebrated attraction on Ostrow Tumski is the Church of the Holy Cross.
Well-maintained, classical-styled houses belonging to the Archdiocese of Wroclaw litter the main street, ul. Katedralna.
Its a lot of beautiful buildings on the island.
Some saying its the best part of the town.
If You want more details then order a walking trip with a really expert on that it many guide who have a program there.

The Market Square of Wroclaw
The Market Square in Wroclaw is definitely worth a visit. It's in fact my favourite place to go to when I'm in the city. Most buildings in this area are picturesque and have some sort of an interesting background story. There are plenty of good restaurants and stores selling memorabilias. You can sightsee the Market Square by strolling along, riding a bike or an electric scooter, or going on a horse ride.
There are many ways to explore this gorgeous piece of the city.
However, I have to agree with the comments I've seen about the beggars - they make for one of the biggest downsides of the experience. Over the years the amount has awfully increased. Just as at the beginning you could ignore and walk past them, they've recently become more pushy than ever before. From time to time they even approach people while they're having dinner outdoors at a restaurant, so beware of this. Keep your belongings close and steer clear of sketchy individuals as much as possible - as soon as you spot one walking around with a rose in their hand, go the opposite way or any other that might have you avoid a possibly unfortunate situation.

Arriving in Wroclaw 🇵🇱
#thingstodo
In the recent trip to Poland, I have been Wroclaw , which is one of the beautiful city in Europe. The rich culture and architecture of inside city has made me a good day for real. In the beginning, I arrived at the train station in Wroclaw and inside is really beautiful with the ceiling on the top and there’s lots of restaurants inside. Outside of the city is really gorgeous with the colourful houses , although there’s a bit cloudy.

Wroclaw Wroclaw
Looking for the Dwarf trail in Wroclaw, Poland, I accidentally caught up with the music fountain. It is not the largest city in Poland, but it is my favorite. The dwarfs are actually to commemorate the "orange movement" of local youths who rebelled against the government in the 1980s, when a group of young students dressed as dwarfs wandered around the city. The bronze statue of the dwarfs now extends to symbols representing every storefront and industry. You can ask for a map of the dwarfs from the travel advisory office, otherwise it will be difficult to gather the complete parts. #Traveling around the world #History Story #See the world #Travel #Artwork #Music Fountain #Poland #Good scenery #Good weather #Share the most beautiful scenery in the album #The scenery around #Humanities attractions sharing #Travel #Finding the dwarfs #See the world #Not to be missed #One Day trip #scenery #beauty on the trip #my travel diary #today is another worthy day #light show #music fountain #travel #wroclaw #dwarf #Poland #music fountain

Gnomes of Wrockaw
Gnomes of Wroclaw, there are thousands of Brass gnomes all over the city of Wroclaw. A great activity on a city break trying to find as many as possible #wroclaw
The Cathedral of St. John the Baptist
Wroclaw Cathedral also known as the Church of St. John the Baptist and located in the old town area of Ostrow Tumski. This is well worth the ten minute stroll from Market Square.
The view from the roadway leading to the cathedral really gives you an idea of the sheer size of the Cathedral with its twin towers. The Cathedral itself is magnificent inside and you can buy tickets at 7 PLN to take the lift to the top of the Cathedral Spire. You will have to climb about 40 steps and then it’s a lift for the rest of the journey.
The views Wroclaw when you reach the top are spectacular from all four sides. This is definitely not to be missed when in Wroclaw.
This is really something that you need to visit and as you arrive at the site you’re are amazed with the sheer size and how the church dominates the landscape of Ostrow Tumski – you can see the church from many parts of Wroclaw such is its stature.
We purchased two tickets at 7 PLN each for our visit and this entitled us to entry to one of the two towers. The bonus here is that you only need to climb 40 steps and then a lift takes you the rest of the way. The top is enclosed with wire so taking photos of the magnificent views can be challenging – but it’s worth the effort.

Raclawice Panorama
Racławice Panorama is a hidden gem of Wroclaw. The painting stands in a circular fashion. It allows viewers to feel like they would be in the centre of battle. The battle was held during the Kościuszko Uprising when Kościuszko started his leadership in Cracow and was on the way up to Warsaw. The authors, who are Jan Styka, Ludwig Boller and Wojciech Kossak, used oils on canvas to create that masterpeace.
The painting is absolutely amazing, an enormous 15 by 114 meters canvas. Viewing the Panorama is full of splendour. The amount of the details is so big that even today 130 years after the creation it gives shivers when you at it. It’s made more realistic by the frontside which is prepared in the way to be spotted such as one greater whole. When you go up the stairs to panorama the first glance is breathtaking. You go there and you don’t exactly know what you are looking at. Is it a film, a 3D picture or something else? The best is that it is a painting.
When you visit Wroclaw the Panorama of the Battle of Racławice is one of the places you just need to see on your own. There are only a few panoramas like that one left in the world. Place definitely worth visiting.
