Wroclaw is located in the south-west of Poland. It is a colorful, vibrant city that is worth visiting for many reasons.
Do you want to drink a delicious local beer on the market or maybe you would like to actively spend the day looking for 400 gnomes located in the city center?
Check what interesting you can see in Wroclaw!
The Main Square that never sleeps.
In the first steps, our legs should guide us to the Main Square. This is the main part of the Old Town, where there is also the Town Hall with the Świdnicka Cellar.
The market is not only the main, but also the most beautiful place in Wroclaw, which delights and invites you to enjoy its attractions, both during the day and at night. Then we can sit in a nearby cafe and enjoy the beautifully lit view of charming tenement houses.
Ostrow Tumski.
Ostrow Tumski is called the Pearl of Wroclaw – the oldest, historic part of Wrocław.
Many buildings were destroyed during World War II, but today you can admire many beautiful monuments, and above all the Cathedral of St. John the Baptist and the church of St. Cross.
Strolling around Ostrow Tumski, we will surely find the famous Tumski Bridge, called „bridge of lovers” – full of padlocks.
Places less known but equally attractive.
Wroclaw Neons – I recommend taking an evening walk around the city. In the yard at Ruska 46C you will find a nice collection of Wroclaw neons. It is absolutely worth visiting.
Or maybe you like street art?
Take a look at the yard at Roosevelt Street, the so-called Gallery of Local Murals.
Colorful fish, blue oceans, paradise garden, dogs and cats, dinosaurs, own poems and portraits, beloved football team – there is a place for everything on a 250-meter-long painting, which stood out from the side of the yard on tenement houses.
I also recommend searching for all Wrocław Dwarfs that are located in the old town.
Some can not be found, others are difficult to overlook. There are about 400 of them 😉
The first gnomes appeared on the walls of the city in the eighties, as a sign of protest against the then political system. Currently, they are the ”city’s visiting card”.
