Travel / Attractions in Wrocław: a Must-See List [117]

In my day they were dirty and grey.

they were cleaned up for the Popes visit in 1997. all the paint and colours have to be approved. they are very strict in that part of town.

PS. Wrocław, there are a few photos above which you probably haven`t seen.

i'll certainly check them later.

There are many houses around the island so which one?:

none of those. sorry, i won't give a direct answer.

extra info: the tram is a number 6. this type of tram only uses this route. also, the building is number 1, plac bema and home to google among others.

the bottom picture shows the only building on wyspa slodowa. a little noisy when there is a concert on the island, but those who live there get free tickets.

because i know exactly where u stood, it's like i can walk in your footsteps.

if the bike had a fixed wheel it might be easier to control. the bike in the second picture (above) doesn't seem to have one though.

u are all going to think i'm as mad as a hatter with this.

i have started to notice bikes, which seem to have one frame on top of another. the rider is then above car roof height.

has anyone else seen these. or is it just someone in wroclaw having fun with a welding kit.

How about 50 to 1 when the one is defending nothing more substantial than 'walls' made of mud and bags of seed and the one wins?

yes, but rorkes drift is not in Poland.

UK, Ireland / Brits dislike freshwater fish? [11]

carp is a disgusting fish. it is a bottom feeder and that is what it tastes like.

skate is a bottom feeder too, but folk eat it.

I was looking for such things in Wrocław. What exactly?

the second/lower picture is the old mamut bread factory... showing WWII damage. i have similar photos of the same building. it closed a couple of years ago and i believe will be saved from demolition.

it's opposite the botanical gardens
