Enjoy Toruń 🇵🇱 with us!
Jak pięknie pokazujecie Polskę. Serdecznie Wam za to dziękuję i pozdrawiam.
Toruń jest piękny , tak jak piękna nasza POLSKA cała! 🇵🇱❤🇵🇱
I grew up in Toruń and only started appreciating how beautiful it is when I moved to the UK. Now, after 18 years, I'm planning to move back 😊
How beautiful!!! I’m booking a trip to Toruń for the summer!! 🇵🇱
We loved Toruń. My cousins showed us all around the city. They even took us to the Gingerbread Museum to make our own gingerbread. It was wonderful.
who knew that your videos would inspire gingerbread making a year later. My husband's ancestors are from Bavaria and me from Poland so why not!! Love you guys from East Coast USA.
Thank you so much for watching out videos 🙏🏻♥️
Ohhh my god Toruń looks BEAUTIFUL 😍
Awesome video (Gingerbread look delicious) congrats with the sponsorship 🥳
Thanks guys ❤️🍻
Now You suppose going to National Park Bory Tucholskie beautiful View, Lakes ,Forest and the high Sumit on North Poland Wiezyca
Piękny Toruń, w tle "statek Piła Tango" . Pozdrawimy Serdecznie
❤️🇵🇱❤️🇵🇱
I pięknie super odcineczek pozdrawiamy z Bielska Grześ i Marzenka Toruń piękny
Hi guys! I'm from Toruń. And you're completely right about what you are saying in this video. I moved out from Poland but my city is always calling me back. And I can't wait until I'll move back as it is the most beautiful place I ever had chance to live. 😁
Yes it’s simply an amazing place 🇵🇱❤️
Ja mieszkam od 10lat we Włocławku, ale moje serce nadal należy do Torunia. Do 11. roku życia mieszkałam na ul. Mostowej, moimi miejscami zabaw była Starówka, ruiny zamku Krzyżackiego. To zostaje w pamięci😊
I last visited Poland 1n 1973 with my parents, my dad was born near Bydgoszcz and one of his sisters lived not far from there. Have really enjoyed your videos from Poland since my dad passed away in 1990 we have lost touch with his side of the family.
I haven’t had gingerbread in ages, looks great!
So tasty!!
Its worlds class product produced since ~1200
Wow ! Ragazza, your Polish is not bad at all 👏 you can say 'Dzień Dobry, Dziękuję' and even Kraków (krakoov) - u pronounce correctly while so many foreigners say Krakov, instead Krakoov so well done 👍 and hope you know that ó it is not o -it's actually u ! But what we call u -closed therefore Kraków pronunciation is Krakoov 👏👏👏
Great video 👌
Thank you so much 🙏🇵🇱
I was just checking if Naomi was Polish because of her flawless Polish pronunciation.
@@zl8018 Both of the Explorers have great Polish pronunciation.
If you like the view from the tower and have plans to see Gdańsk, bazylika mariacka tower is a must
We have Gdańsk on our list! 🇵🇱
My City 😇🥰🥰🥰💥💥👌👌👌
Beautiful place!
Toruń is woderful. Thanks for this video
Yes it is! We LOVED it 😊❤️
Always look forward to your videos. Another great one 🙂❤️
Ho hoo, welcome to my home city. ))
It’s so amazing 🙏🙏🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱
Love your style guys..informative, educational , professional and FUN!! All in one ! 👏 💐 🥳 kudos
🍻🍻❤️❤️ thanks so much
Ohh soo fun to make your own gingerbread.
Dudesssss both gingerbreads looked great. I think you guys did a fantastic job! That river is just beautiful.
Do you know that gingerbread has been baked in Toruń for 700 years. Initially, the recipes were highly protected. Today, Poland exports them all over the world, including a lot to the USA. The best are "Katarzynki" in real chocolate (not milk chocolate). You bought them because the ones you ate are so-so. 😀
Initially piernik wasn't even sweet.
Wow nice!
@@charonboat6394 Ale dziś jest i takie o jakich ja piszę są najlepsze. Koniec dyskusji.
actually guys the small dors are there for a reason people was normall height but thanks to that they have to crouch and the head got to goes first what make potentiall enemy an easy target ... you can spot tha lowered pasages thru many medivals castles and entrence thru whole europe cheers and good luck at your adventures 👍
Oh soo much to see and do in Torun...greetings and thank you !!
Guys if you like old castle you must go to see this place Człuchów Castle 2h away from Torun and later maybe Cathedral of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary and Lighthouse in KoLobrzeg ( seaside )
A w Krużewnikach był?😄
About the Leaning Tower - please get off the main path & come to Ząbkowice Śląskie/Dolny Śląsk. We have here a real Leaning Tower. Also my town was used to named Frankenstein and it was an inspiration for Mary Shelley's novel. In 1606 grave diggers of Frankenstein were making poison out of corpses and caused a plague. How cool is that? 😁
Wow amazing! Sounds cool!
Polecam wam Poznań 👍
Me too
In Poznań at least 3 days (but this year unfortunately resurfacing market square). It’s mess in center. But town is beautiful, and definitely worth it to see. It’s the best decorated Mall in Europe “Stary Browar”.
@@drekf675 Stary Browar won two times prize for the best shopping centre in the world. All building is packed of art.
Omg! I don’t believe it! I have just done the gingerbread workshop the same as you guys did, AN, would you believe, I was lucky enough to have the SAME lady as you and she also did it in English for me as well! So great, and I’m lucky cos there was only 3 of us and I was the only one doing it in English! So glad I watched your video about this years ago so I knew what was possible! Thanks guys! Cheers from Australia
❤️🙏
Well done as always ! Staying in old town from 8/1-4 , first time in Torun -cant wait , thanks for the preview . Your enthusiasm for travel, exploring , history and Poland in general is VERY SPECIAL & INSPIRING !!!!!
My Town
It’s truly amazing
@@TwoMadExplorers That is why I wrote to you earlier that Toruń is worth visiting. An interesting fact is that Toruń was not destroyed during World War II because it is very fortified. Each building looks like it used to be. You can feel the gothic style of the buildings. And this is a rarity in the case of Polish cities.
Thank you for visiting my city. 40 km further you have Bydgoszcz. The city is also worth visiting.
After Bydgoszcz, I recommend going to the Polish sea in the Tri-City. On the way you will have some interesting places such as Malbork. There is the largest castle in Europe there. :)
Toruń moje piękne miasto 🌞
A ni hu hu. Bo moje! 😜
@@mariuszborowski2646 A nie,bo moje🌞😂💖
Love it, Guys!!!
Can’t wait to see another video.
If you have a chance, go to Bydgoszcz. It’s not far from Toruń . Those two city compete each other. But they totally different towns. It’s worth to go there for one day 💪.
You are amazing, Guys!!!
Thanks so much for watching!! ❤️🙏🇵🇱
Visit the Bieszczady Mountains. A beautiful and wild place :D
My 🥰 TORUŃ. Hello from Oxfordshire 🇬🇧
🙏🇵🇱🙏☀️
The owner of Mentzen Pub is member of a libertarian political party. Very popular among young Poles. One of the smartest and inteligent polish politician. He is also a beer producer, that you can try in the pub
Sławomir Menzen 😍❤️
Greetings from Toruń,hope you enjoyed your visit 😉
WOW beautiful !!!!
🙏🙏🍻🍻
My hometown. 😍 Greetings from UK. 🤛
🙏😊☀️❤️
Perfection is imperfection to the right perspective... regarding your gingerbread 👍❤️
Jesteś ciasteczkowym powtorem - pożarłeś głowę piernikowego chłopczyka! 😆 Oczywiście żartuję. Cieszę się, że odwiedziliście Polskę i dobrze się bawicie. Oglądam wasze vlogi i xieszy mnie zadowolenie turystów, które jest moim zadowoleniem. Mam 66 lat i pamiętam smutne życie Polaków za żelazną kurtyną. Zapraszam do Warszawy. Dobre jedzenie w restauracjach Gościniec. Są blisko Placu Zamkowego - na ulicach Podwale 19 i na Krakowskim Przedmieściu 29. Tu zjecie najlepsze pierogi, bigos, pyzy, zupy w Warszawie za niską cenę. Pozdrawiam z mojego miasta Warszawy.❤❤
🇵🇱 ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Best Video !!!
The red brick building is Arthus' Court and only base level is used commercially, on rest floors it's culture center and there is amazing concert hall that is frequently used for smaller performences, very often free
It's TOruń - stress falls on penultimate (or first in this case) syllable. :)
Nice to c u enjoy Toruń city im from town close just 46km away bit nothing super to c there only the dam and Old catedra in Włocławek city. All the best from castletownbere 👍🔥
Super wyrabiacie pierniki
A lovely travel vlog! Toruń is beautiful and really worth visiting and we are happy you have been to Toruń and you can show us the most attractive places in that pretty city - Poland's Gingerbread Capital. We enjoyed visiting Toruń in the past and we have enjoyed Toruń with you tonight, (we) thank you - dziękujemy! Warmest wishes and greetings from Warsaw, Paweł (Paul) and Gosia 🌞 🧡 🌤 🌹 ⛱ 🌅 🧡 😊 🌞 🌟 🍀 🇵🇱 🏝 🏖 🌅 🧡 💙 Go to the Hel Peninsula if you can (when you are in Toruń, the Tri-city: Gdańsk, Sopot and Gdynia is only 150 km away, you can get to Gdynia by train in 3 hours), it is really amazing and unique and worth visiting, especially by train or you can reach Hel by boat from Gdynia and then go by train back to Gdynia visiting Jurata, Jastarnia, Kuźnica and Chałupy on the way to Gdynia. By the way, you also have one of the coolest tower with splendid views in Gdańsk (the Cathedral Tower viewpoint), and the view from Kamienna Góra in Gdynia is also breathtaking. There are so plenty of things to see and do in the North of Poland, too. Good luck!
Thank you! 🇵🇱❤️
what a lifestyle, to travel & explore so much. makes me wonder how I’d do it. I don’t know if you two had much experience in long distance running, but when I travel, that’s a great way to explore a new place. but I must say, there’s a way to cultivate a running habit that makes running fun & peaceful (as opposed to some urgent push for fitness, measuring your progress, etc). an hour-long run can feel like an hour-long walk. I think I’d probably scope out parts of the town with ‘exploratory runs’ (I don’t mean eating something questionable and checking out the available toilets). yes, these ‘exploratory jogs’ would be so great. I find that when I run, it opens my heart, so everything I see makes more of an emotional impression, and I am more receptive to beauty.
W😊W! Brilliant Video!💕👍👏👌I loved the intro with Luc's mouth full of ginger bread!😄✌
Toruń moje miasto 💖💖
Great video! But maybe after medieval town check out you guys the perfect renaissance town - Zamość:)
Thank you!! Maybe soon!!
The building you admired from the tower has not only the commercial use but cultural one as well. Upstairs there is a concert hall where many cultural events take place.🙂
Great video 👍👏👌. On the way to Gdańsk, you must see the Teutonic castle in Malbork. The largest red brick building in the world. NECESSARILY 🤗
Thank you! It’s on our list 🏰
Toruń seems to be quite spectacular, worth to stay for some time
Yes it’s a truly beautiful place
There are many interesting cities around, to begin with bydgoszcz, co-capital with Toruń, Inowrocław, and on the Vistula river Płock, Włocławek, Grudziądz :)
See you in sopot Poland 😊
What a nice place...😅😅😅😅😁🤠🤑👻💯💥💜💔🌺🌺🌺🌌
hi guys, been watching you Polish tour from the very beginning , you are such a nice couple , hope you do enjoy your trip so far , looking forward to see more videos
Thanks so much Adrian 🙏🙏🇵🇱
I recommend visiting the House of Copernicus in Toruń. 😉😉👍👍
We went there! We have video tomorrow at (6pm Polish time) from Toruń where we visit this place 🇵🇱
your videos all time fine 👍👍
😘
☺👍
👍🍀😊🌞
Polish lesson. Polish accent - second sylabe from the end. So TOrun :) Yours "dzień dobry" ideal
BTW you must visit one of Manekin resaurants in Torun (there are three, two in old city). They are specialised in pancakes or in Polish naleśniki (few dozen variations) but it is one of the epic food places in Torun. I recommend visit Manekin on Wysoka street. On the corner of Wysoka street and Prosta street is also Picollo pizzeria. Ok it is not really pizzeria, they sell just one kind of very special "Polish pizza" but it is also very unique place for Toruń. You must try and check it.
Awesome!!!
Edit: not Prosta street but Wysoka for Manekin:) But those streets are just near each other:)
Pancake is not naleśnik.
Naleśnik=crepes
schön
Fantastyczny odcinek!!! Teraz do Malborka zapraszam!!!
Soon!!!! 🇵🇱
Fantastyczne jest, jak ziomki z innego kraju zupełnie nie czają ironii moich komentarzy i je entuzjastycznie lajkują ! I love IT so much, really! a Toruń jest taki bezpieczny...zwłaszcza dla niektórych laluń i ich dzi... W karzy , którzy muszą b. Uważać na swoje twarze, aby przypadkiem nie znalazły się na ich odbicia z liści zielonych jak sny niewinnych ... xd....
Pierniki wyszły Wam piękne, naturalne. Kupcie sobie takie podstawki, nóżki jak na obrazki i według tradycji polskiej możecie je wystawiać na kredensie podczas świąt Bożego narodzenia :) będzie pachniało w całym pokoju.
🙏🙏🙏🙏
Love Toruń. Absolutely in top 10 places in Poland to visit :)
For sure 🇵🇱🇵🇱❤️
OMG. Aren't you coming to Warsaw? I'll keep watching you after the 8th of July when I'm back from my holiday.
Warsaw is on our list ❤️🇵🇱🍻
@@TwoMadExplorers If you are planning to go to Warsaw and you are into history make sure you're there on August 1. At 5 pm, at so called W-hour the whole city life stops for one minute to commemorate those who fought in the Warsaw Uprising in 1944. It's very intense and unique experience.
th-cam.com/video/BGb6f0xw3f8/w-d-xo.html&ab_channel=surgepolonia
if you are planning to visit Gdańsk I highly recommend to check out "park Oliwski". Not far from there you can take a walk to a great observation tower "Pachołek".
I want to go to ginger bread school looks amazing
beautiful place
Wow such a beutyfull town i want to go there now.. oh, i forgot i live here. ima such a lucky bastardo. thanks for this movie i realized even more how happy i am i live here. U are super cool guyz i appriciated ur good words and everythin. stay health n happy. Toruń loves you! \o/
🙏🇵🇱🙏🇵🇱
So, you have time to go to Bydgoszcz - little Polish Amsterdam.
It is on our list! Hopefully soon!
Już nie bo komuniści zasypali główny węzeł kanałowy i zdemontowali urządzenia żeglugowe zaczynając od lat 60 tych. Dziś zostały tylko resztki. Przed wojną rzeczywiście mogłeś przepłynąć od Amsterdamu aż do Królewca i Kłajpedy wodą śródlądową. Dziś już tego nie zrobisz.
@@MsLuki777 Dlaczego? Niech przyjadą ale reklamowanie miasta jako mały Amsterdam może budzić większe oczekiwania niż zastana rzeczywistość. Moje miasto jest teraz bardzo ładne. Od 30 lat robiono wszystko aby odrestaurować zabytki i rewitalizować parki oraz stworzyć nowe atrakcje. Nudzić się nie będą. Bydgoszcz nie ma tak wielu zabytków co Toruń ale trochę ich jest i to z wielu epok. Pozdrawiam Torunianina
@@worldcitizen123 Jaja sobie robię. Do mojego miasta na pewno nie przyjadą. Z wszystkich polskich miast Bydgoszcz najbardziej przypomina Amsterdam. W Kaliszu wody jest mniej i architektura inna. Bydgoszcz zwiedzałem przez kilka dni w czasie gdy jeszcze rynek nie był odbudowany i miasto zrobiło na mnie duże wrażenie. Jedno z najciekawszych miast w Polsce. Pozdrawiam z zielonego Pruszkowa.
@@MsLuki777 👌😀
I’m not quite sure if you guys still in Poland but maybe next trip to visit Tarnow city ?
We’re still here! definitely checking in out 😍
@@TwoMadExplorers Siemano you guys from Florida 🤙😎Come to visit sometimes in future ✌️
I like You very much😉
My recommendation is Kaszubian region :Szymbark there is upside down house,
Wdzydze kiszewske skansen of Old vilage,
And canal Elbląski (vessels pulling on the railway)
Canal Elbląski it's not Kaszubian region but not so far.
Thank you 🙏
are you guys going to Frombork too? also has museum of Copernicus, cathedral hill and famous water tower with little cafe
👌👌👌
Best opening scene ever!! 😆
Hahaha thank you guys ❤️❤️
It seems that you will stay in Poland for a long time if not, you will definitely come back to us :)
Yes definitely!
Is Naomi a German? She sounds like one. I'm moving to Torun this September and I can't wait!
She is!
Wyglądacie jak kwantowo splątane dusze,mam nadzieję że tak jest.💔💔💞 czego wam życzę
🙏🙏🙏🙏
👍👍👍
after Łódź and Wrocław I am starting following you along your Poland exploration. Its fun being Polish, knowing those places, having now English speaking guides. Refreshing. And you are such a charming couple. By the way, can I ask you where are you originally from?
Thank you!!! Luke is from Ireland 🇮🇪 and Naomi is half German 🇩🇪 half Italian 🇮🇹
👍❤️
I am obvioustly from Poland, Wrocław, but live now for almost 40 years in Toronto, Canada and for moment I thought your accent could've be from here, where I am. Now, I just wish to be near where you are and as you suggested offer you a coffee and a little chat.
@@mako7035 That would be amazing! 🇵🇱❤️
Are you traveling to Canada?
Na zdrowie
❤️🇵🇱❤️🇵🇱
10:51 remember that this is only a legend :D the truth is that Toruń is just built on very unstable ground and that's the effect
Did you guys try Piccolo Pizza!? It was our favorite fast food spot when we visited!
We missed out on that place! Maybe next time!
We loooooove pizza too 👀
i love gingerbread
We do too!! 🇵🇱
That is a pity that you hav not visited Bydgoszcz - the city nearby Toruń. It is the second co-capital of Kuyavian-Pomeranian region and has totally diferent vibe than Toruń. But of course also it is also great to visit by tourist.
There are those who like Bydgoszcz more than Toruń - it depends on the taste. But both cities are beautiful - although Bydgoszcz (like Łódź) is often underestimated.
We will be back soon to visit! 🇵🇱❤️
If you are interested in art, there is big modern art gallery here in Toruń! It is callsed CSW - Centrum Sztuki Współczesnej, Znaki Czasu (Centre of Modern Art). The exhibitions there change all the time, and now there are great artworks of famous polish artists such as Wojciech Fangor as well as astists from other countries too! I really recommend going there, all of the exhibitions that are there are worth seeing! Also the building itself is beatiful and there is a little cafe and a cinema on the inside as well. This gallery is very close to the old town, like a 5min walk from the old town hall. :)
But if I had to recommend great cafe for coffee and cakes I would recommend checking out Bread House! And their "runo leśne" or "mech leśny" cake (moss cake) which is green and made with spinach, great polish cake! Also, someone already recommended restaurant called Manekin, I have to agree to say it is great restaurant to check!
Thank you for the great recommendations!
Even more I must add, if you have some spare time, there is town near by Toruń called Golub Dobrzyń, and now at the castle in this town there is big international medival knight tournament (46. Międzynarodowy Turniej Rycerski)! It is big event that is held once every year where people from different countries dressed in medival knight clothes fight in different challanges. There is some good food too. This event started today (01.07) and will be held till Sunday (03.07), if you would be interested I could translate for you more info about this event"s program. :)
Okay one more recommendation - Lenkiewicz - there is Toruń's best ice cream! The scoops are big and they have lots of flavours! Lenkiewicz is located in 2 places in old town and atleast 3 more around the city!
@@bob.7412 we have a second Toruń video going up at 6pm (Polish time) today! We went and got some Lenkiewicz ice cream!
Guys there is no Wistula river... there is Wisła river
Mikołaj Kopernik (Nicolaus Copernicus) - Date and place of birth: February 19, 1473, Toruń - The famous astronomer, mathematician, economist
He discovered that the earth is not the center of the universe and that the earth revolves around the sun, not the other way around as previously thought.
You should also visit Poznań-Trujmiasto Gdańsk, Sopot, Gdynia-then Malbork and go to Masuria, the small town of Mikołajki and Giżycko
Yours sincerely, a nice international couple 👍😎
Nice! Thank you!!
Abt the donkey: the thing is abt people who gossip, they were put on donkey and had a ride around the city, so ppl can see who is a gossiper.
Awesome video,
BTW A theory cannot be discovered ;)
alberto wersja budżetowa 0:19
Mmm Toruń :) apart from gingerbread to us Poles, unfortunately, but it is associated with a certain "priest" named Rydzyk ...
and the video is great as always! greetings
I've got a question - why do you (and other English speakers) put the accent in the name of the city on "u" instead of "o" (like we do)? Is there any difficulty?
Just a language difference that’s all! 👍
omg everywher enormous ukrainian cloth! God save Poland!
Jak można być w Toruniu i nie zwiedzić Rubinkowa???;)
