Most Amazing places in Poland. What does it for you?

What struck you as the most amazing place in Poland? Was it a specific cathedral? landmark? cave? River? Monuement?

For me, it is Wieliczka salt mine. Yeah, a lot of people have been there and may seem like no big deal, but for me, this place is amazing and to think everything within was worked by hand and some things of free will like the statues.

What does it for you?

auschwitz

Kolobrzeg.

I am having a sh1t day today, and I'd much rather be there than stuck in my office right now :(

Zakopane, i love the culture the architecture, the music is off key to my ears but I still love it and I like the "get off my land", while shacking an axe at you, attitude

Yeah, another one that's emotional.


Nice place it is :) What did you like about it?


Yes.

Kazimierz dolny near my home sitting by the banks of the Wisła, I can never get bored of this place :)

Wieliczka Salt Mine

Can't put my finger on why exactly... been a few times in the last couple of months and it just seems like my kind of place :)

Bieszczady.

Pojezierze Zachodnopomorkie

some parts of Szczecin

Krakow

What in Pojezierze Zachodnopomorkie? Is there a spoecific site that grabs you? What in Krakow? The tombs? Centrum?

I just found out there are mountains in Zakopane too
How the hell did I forget to mention the mountains.... maybe I took it for granted, shame on me.

zillions lakes and forests. It is nice to camp, swim, go mashroom picking, blueberry picking- the whole area is nice if one likes nature. Szwajcaria Polczynksa is close to Polczyn Zdroj and it is part of pojezierze Zachdniopomorskie.

Drawski Prk Krajobrazowy - Wildrover lives in the vicinity of it, so he can tell you more.


Old Town. Buildings, cafes, restaurants, pubs, bookstores. It is also nice to drive around Krakow and explore small towns and villlages with old cementaties, churches and synagogues and monasteries. Malopolska - (Krakow are is kind of magic due to history). I lived 50 km form Krakow and the rolling hills are amazing.

You didn't ask about Bieszczady;)

Maybe not the most amazing but a really nice and almost unknown place is Lanckorona... a village near Kraków...

What about it? Is this an old city?

Zakopane is also nice and one of my fav's

Kasprowy Wierch

Krakow. It was like stepping back into a fairy tale (Wavel caste, the old churches, renaissance style buildings)

Is that you in the pic?

I live close to Zakopane, the view from where I am sitting is of beautiful rolling hills.
I will post a pic when I fix my camera

Yes, it's me.

Wieliczka for sure.

I absolutely adored spending a couple of summers in Kraków, however I'm afraid of how much I'd be disappointed in going back, guessing how much charm has been lost for the sake of modernization over the last 17 years.

For me, I'd also say a little farming village very near the border crossing at Medyka, for the relatives I met there.

Bieszczady is a region in South East Poland.

------------------

Something forgotten by most of Travel agencies.. Wieliczka Salt Mine! That's awesome, The mine reaches down to a depth of 327 meters and is over 300 km long!! It's also underground town with museums, restaurants, shops.. 15 miles from Krakow.



------------------

One of the Europe's best places for ski and other snow sports. That area is also home of Europe's rare animals, BEARS! Place called Zakopane.



------------------

One of my favorite's Polish places, Bieszczady National Park, located on south-eastern Poland. You can go there for climbing, great walk, great regional beer and food. You can also rent a small boat and sail down the lakes between the hills. Just look at that:

I know there are many facinating cities, but I'm looking for a specific site or place within these cities that grabs your attn. Don't mean to be a stickler, but there are many "favorite city" topics.

Now this is the kind of thread I was looking for! Let''s just hope it doesn't turn into some nouveau hate-fest...

Here you go..... the beach.... I'd love to be there right now....

Edited to add:

or maybe not - the pic that I attached didn't upload. Just use your imagination ;)

hahaha did you try with photobucket?


Yeah, i hope not. I'd like to see more of these. It's become waay too political in here. Too many pissing matches. I just want to share things about Poland..it is why wer'e all here.

Have a favorite site masks?

Pity. I was looking forward to a nice beach pic. Try again...

No, I uploaded from a file on my laptop.

I also use dropshots.com, but I've got stuff on there that I'd rather not post on a public forum LOL!!

There are a couple of other places that grabbed my attn.:

Biskupin (Biskupin - a settlement from the turn of the Bronze Age and the Early Iron Age (750 - 600 BC.)

Malbork castle
Many of you from PL have travelled here for school at one point in time I'm sure, but this place is also missed by many tourists.

hahah understood :) My photobucket isn't working anyway. i need to post pics above.

I have several from kolobrzeg. I may be back next month....one of the BAltic beaches anyway. I did like the bar/club that's on the beach there.
