Wrocław still remains a hidden gem of Europe. Tourists always go to Kraków not being aware, that Wrocław is at the same level with things to see, while being cheaper. These aerial shots are stunning, great job!
I am staying at Plac Jana Pawla II Wroclaw with my son and Wroclaw is very beautiful city.I could visit Krakow - Malbrok-Gdansk Baltic sea area.Highways are good and traffic is very disciplined.
Well done! I just returned from a trip to Poland, including Wroclaw. You hit all the high points, your photos are gorgeous and the accompanying comments accurate and interesting. I feel like I need to go back and see what I missed.
The best guide for the city Wrocław. Thank god I have found this channel. A true hidden gem! Im going there in October with my gf and I cant wait! And Rok has to be a Slovenian name :D
Rok, You are the best guide in TH-cam! Thanks for showing all the amazing places around whole Europe (my summer destination 2023 - Pula and Istria). Greetings from Poland!
Surprisingly i also chose istria n slovenia last year for our road trip. Thanks to Rok’s istria videos. I live in warsaw and i visited wrocław few years back. Thanks for walking me thru my memory lane.
I recommend to visit Wroclaw in Poland 🇵🇱 its a very beautiful City but a bit underrated… not so much Tourists ,and a very good nightlife ,restaurants and bars 👌
This is an excellent presentation of a gorgeous city. I have been to Poland only once but this city tops anything I saw, even Krakow. Did it also escape major damage in WWII ?
During WWII Germans declared Breslau to be a stronghold against oncoming Red Army (German version of Stalingrad). That's why fierce fights took place in the city which capitulated after Berlin was conquered. Because of those heavy fights circa 70% of buildings in Breslau were destroyed. After WWII ruins of the city became part of Poland. Before the fights most German inhabitants escaped west, after war Poles from eastern Polish territories taken by Soviets (many of them from city of Lwów) came in. City returned to its medieval Polish name Wrocław ( in Latin: Wratislavia). Poles rebuilt it diligently as part of their heritage (before that Wrocław belonged to Poland for over 400 years), remembering that for almost 500 years Wrocław was under Czech influence (Vratislav with majority of Polish population) and for last 200 years before WWII part of German state. In other words in 1945 Breslau ceased to exist and Wrocław has reborned from the ashes. BTW Similar story happened with Gdańsk where circa 65% of the city was destroyed, including 90% of its downtown).
The historical coat of arms of Silesia is the coat of arms of the Lower Silesian Piasts ( Polish Dynasty ) - the coat of arms of the Piast dynasty, ruling the principalities of Lower Silesia. It was a shield with a golden field with a black eagle with a silver crescent band running through the eagle's wings and breast, which was crowned with a cross. Wrocław historically belonged to the Czech Republic for about 500 years, to Poland for about 400 years and to Germany for about 200 years.
Dolny Śląsk nigdy nie należał do Czech tylko do Luxemburgów. Czesi nie mieli w państwie Luxemburgów niemal nic do powiedzenia a na Dolnym Śląsku było to absolutne "0"

The city was German till 1945 and called Breslau. In 1945, 650,000 Germans were expelled from the city. It is the largest city on Earth, whose entire population was expelled. It was the third-largest city of the German Empire after Berlin and Hamburg. Everything built there before 1945 was built by Germans. The city was German-speaking since around 1200-1300. The descendants of the Slavic founders of the village from before 1200 were Germanized, and expelled in 1945, too. Before the Slavs settled in Silesia (the region in which the city lies) in around 400-600, Silesia was inhabited by East Germanic tribes. All Nobel prize winners from the city's university were Germans, and none was Polish. A look on a political map of Europe from before 1945 helps.

We ask locals about their point of view about the city. 🔥
Centrum mesta je opraveny i hezky ale na periferiich to neni pekné. Ubytovani dosti předražene. Moje zkušenost!
