Krakow a safe and friendly city for foreigners? Read this!

I think most people here know that in the vast majority of cases, when something bad happens to a tourist, it's usually their own bloody fault.

BB,

you know I`m pity that those guys were beaten by some stupid Poles. However I`m fed up of this chinwag that tourists are feeding my Country.

Wow!
poland seems like a cool place..lets see what i stumble upon when i come to poland after two years..
btw, if any bad guy messes with me then surely hes gonna get hurt cause im one of those bad guys who never leaves his home without his katana and long jacket...

I don't get it.
A few guys go to a hospital in Poland to seek medical help and instead of speaking Polish they try to communicate in English? That is plain stupid. Why didn't they speak Polish to the nurses?

What a typical racist Pole, no wonder Hitler was lining you guys up.


Beer, food, site seeing, polands crack scam artists.

Heres a better question, tell how Krakow citizens who live in communist blocks spend money?


Not really, but i would like to know where weer you standing when the Spanish guys got bottled? when the taxi wouldnt take them, when the hospital nurses and Doctors were rude etc..

as far as im concerned its all a second hand chinese whisper.

wrong place and wrong time, that is all it is to it.
Many tourist don't respect the places they visit, although I don't think they should be beaten up for that.

When one travels they should always have their eyes opened, that is just the way it is.

delphiandomine, you made me think if they really told me the truth. If i was beaten in a brothel, of course i would also lie that it happened in the street. ;)

Of course - come on, who's going to admit that they got beaten up in a brothel for not paying, or for treating the girl badly?

Krakówians are growing more and more frustrated at foreigners and with good reason. Stag parties are hardly renowned for being orderly and I've heard from those who have had their stag do's there. Very little respect, they are away from home and see fit to trash parts. They don't care much for Poles and the place, they told me.

I can't condone that kind of attitude but it's not like Brits don't have to put up with the ills of free movement. Some towns in GB have undergone radical overhauls, often for the worse.

Kraków is generally safe and there are plenty of police on the go.

Do you, pink monkey, realize that tourism in gneral is a tiny part of Poland's GDP and that +90% of the turnover is domestic tourism, nor the foreign one ?


LOL ! Are you really that retarded ? Do you realize that having 10k in cash once you really need It wouldn't be a big problem even for a public school teacher ? That's you, who proved to talk crap once you said that you are bribing the doctors with 1k to get faster some life saving operations, that's a total nonsense for anyone who have any idea about the public health care system in Poland - in such cases they simply demand much much more.

I don't donate money to this forum just like +90% of other members. There's a lot of free space on the website, Admin might put advertisements there and cover all the costs without our money. I also don't give money to the stinking plebs asking on the streets for 2 PLN, I guess I can't afford that either.

And of course you know better which cities I have visited in the last years, don't you ?

Lets be really realistic they were probably gay Spanish guys.

hehe but why racist???;)

yeahh i live in block, and probably i spend more money for night life than a typical guy who stay in hostel.

In a hostel? What planet are you on? What about all the expensive hotels and restaurants?

Wroclaw Boy, can't you read or are you stupid? I didn't go out with them, i only saw that 2 of them were hurt and then they told me what happened.

Well...

the majority of visitors in cracow stay in cheap hostels, even people who arrived from New Zeland stay at hostel. ( the flight has to be expensive)

-II- drink beers, and devasting my city, ( especially englishmen)

So you have to understand me that I`m fed up of those kind of poeple.

Just knock them down and pi*ss on them, that's what they deserve.

Where is the policing, jeden? The market square should be regularly patrolled, especially on Friday and Saturday nights. Kraków had a visible contingent of police when I was there so what has changed?

So how do the hundreds of expensive hotels stay open then?


Are you willing for that quote to appear in a guide to Poland?

LOL

The police was there but looked the other way. They guys were beat up to the point of needing medical help but they know who was where and where they looked :)

In their genius, the victims, instead of asking cops for help, tried to get a cab. Of course it's hard to say those were even cops. Might have been another group of tourists in freaky clothes. Heck, Michael Jackson used to dress up like a dictator from a third world country.

Then, they guys, who obviously speak Polish, get to the hospital and try to speak English with the nurses.

It's easier to believe the Red Riding Hood story than this fable.

They are the same everywhere.In Greece they do these in remote places on islands but in Poland it is in cities and you see them.Only Russians gave a dynamic answer that is why you never see a stag party in St. Peterburg.

king polkacanon

Are you southern using a sockpuppet?

SEANUS

police is always on the Market Center, visitor wrote that Police were there, but like I said before

Poles have other tradition with police, administration and State in general. For houndreds years, States ( Russian, german, etc, nazists german, russian communist`s, ) were our enemies, so we don`t trust State, Police, administration. It is changing now, but Poles still don`t like police ( in general ofc)

So sometimes police is afraid of Poles ;)

I only tell you what i see everyday, maybe people who stay in expensive hotels don`t
**** of our monuments, at 3 o clock am

You should be in bed at 3am.

Which just goes to support what I maintain on many threads. Namely, the art of the set-up. Chaos serves the interests of some. The EU is often not for Joe Bloggs or Paweł Nowak but for those high above.

For different reasons, Scottish people can be afraid of them too. Polish people have more cause to be afraid. Polish police can be quite confrontational.

I don't think i want to experience this "dynamic answer". :D

You hit the nail on the head.
You should have used that argument in your response to the originator of this thread.

Nothing, there is still a lot of police around the main square at all times

They, Derek, are tourists enjoying the tourist oriented nightlife that Kraków has to offer and advertises around the world.
