Life / Lodz vs Wroclaw - difference in mentality of people? [53]
Just got back from Lodz. This is my 2nd visit and disliked it more than the first time. It seriously feels like I am traveling back in time. Their main attraction is a cemetery and a shopping mall? Rest of the city is dismal, grey and depressing. I go there for family reasons but seriously, if you come from a medium to large sized city in North America and enjoy what a city has to offer, you will dislike this place. If you like fog and damp weather, it's great!! Biggest entertainment was the launching of fireworks on New Year's. Was a lot but my first question was what about fires? Then the news comes a few days later about people dying as a result of fires on New Year's. The locals will defend the cities reputation to the bitter end all the while hating it with another breath. Strange place. So happy to be back home!
