Wroclaw or WrocLOVE?
First thing to say about this beautiful polish city is how difficult might be the pronunciation of it…try with ‘vrotzlaf’ or breslavia if you are italian 🙂
After Poznan, football and vodka I reached ‘vrotzlaf’ by blablacar, not an easy ride, Mr. Kuba’s car had a couple of troubles during the way and we were lucky to arrive within 3 hours in the city.
Wroclaw is one of the biggest polish city (after Warsaw and Krakow), with a big student community, intense night-life and nice sightseeing to offer to tourists and travellers.
First thing I did was to check-in the friendly Friends hostel
Let’s have a look at the city, with an astonishing square and building on the river banks:
Next day, ready for a free walking tour!
The central square, Rinek, one of the biggest in Europe
Symbol of the city, the dwarfts…
Street-art, the city has a big connection with design and art
Other symbol of the city, the small islands (Ostrow Tumski) and bridges, for this reason it’s called ‘the venice of poland’ for the amount of bridges, I was told around 200???? but I didn’t see so many!!!!
Oh yes, of course this is an other symbol of Poland…
Cathedral of St. John the Baptist
As per in Poznan, search for mleczny bar (milk bar) for a cheap and proper local tasty lunch (some of them are: Bar Mewa, Bar Bazylia, Bar Mis), there are also nice canteen-style restaurants that offer buffet meals priced by weight (one in fron t of the university entrance).
Night city tour…
No! It didn’t happen to me, unfortunatly…anyway this city should be called WrocLOVE!!!!
