Hey! Don't forget to LIKE, COMMENT & SHARE! This is one of my favourite videos I've created recently so it would be brilliant if you could follow me on my next adventure! I'm looking forward to reading all your comments below 👇 Also, you can check out my blog post packed full of the best things to do in Lodz here - www.anadventurousworld.com/things-to-do-in-lodz/
Ha ha ha. It took a fair few goes to get the pronunciation correct but glad I got there in the end! Also, completely agree about Poznański's Palace - I'd love to see if once all the renovations are finished!
Been in Lodz many times and always loved my visits there. Great mix of restaurants and bars with affordable price range. Have made alot of friends in Lodz. Great persons! I looking forward to travel back.
I'd never even heard of Lodz before watching this - but you've definitely convinced me. It looks like such a cool city. Loads going on! And £20 for a day?! Yes please!
@@pafkobar5308 The situation is improving quite fast though. Everything is getting renovated, the city is getting more exposure and attracting more investors. ŁKS is back from the dead and will once again play in the Ekstraklasa. The future looks bright.
@@AnAdventurousWorld thank you...yes I did look at your homepage and have also checked several videos... great inspiration for someone like me who is very interested in WW2.
The passage of the roses is both mind-blowing and impressive! It is a destination that should be included in every Lodz, Poland vacation itinerary. Also, thank you for telling on how to pronounce Lodz right!
Hello... such a wonderful vlog you did... really it's a beautiful city.... this vlog implies your hard work and love... hope to be in Lodz city if God permits...tq ...
It was a ghetto only 20 years ago, so I'm very proud to see it change so much. It has this special feel about it, like when you look at a successful person, but you can tell they've been through some shit in their life.
Absolutely LOVE your video!!! Update for 2022: the prices have significantly went up haha and Lodz generally is really really ugly! but you highlighted the best parts!
I was born there in 1944 in the Horst Wessel Strasse according to my German birth certificate. I believe that street reverted back to ulica Nawrot after the war. If anyone can confirm that I would be grateful. Also does anyone know if the house numbers changed post war? My address was 135/58.
Good question! I've just checked on Google maps and it isn't far. It should be walkable, but if not definitely by public transport. Lodz is quite a small city and very easy to get around!
@@AnAdventurousWorld unfortunatly i don,t know english well but i understand, so i wrote it in polish , thank you for a beautiful film(?) and a polite report.I live in Italy. but Lodz is always in my heart.
glcrtsvllv it’s was a manafacrual town but isn’t anymore, just like Manchester and Detroit, it went into decline, although there are some nice streets especially the Main Street
I used to live there as kid for 17 years. Łódź is nice to visit but it is failed city to live there. In late 1980s Łódź was polish Manchester and had massive Cotton industry. Population was about 800k.In early 1990s after Fall of Communism, de line of Cotton industry followed. Cotton mills were shut down during hostile take over operation or corrupted management sold long term corporation in for pea nuts. There were cases when Western companies bought polish state owned Cotton mills for pea nuts, later sacked thousands of workers over night and moved machinery to the West. Unemployment was sky high 30-40%.Lodz lost about 200k population during last 30 years. City center has one representative high Street.Rest of city center are derelicted back Street with poor quality private tenant houses. Very dangerous places were there is one booze shop every Street. In Comunism times blocks were Grey but people in these blocks all had jobs and stability. Now in newly coloured blocks there are plenty of jobless people without hope for their future in Poland. So they (including me) had no choice but leave Poland and Look for better life abroad. Some people compare Łódź to Detroit
Thank you so much for your comment and explaining your experience living there. It's really sad hearing the decline of a city, but hopefully things are getting better now. Often it takes decades of wrong before we can finally make it right. I hope that's the case of Lodz.

No way! A foreigner not only came to Łódź and made a great video sponsoring it... BUT ALSO PRONOUNCED ITS NAME CORRECTLY! Respects my man

I know, so cheap! Honestly, it was probably less than £20 a day - cheapest place I've been too in such a long time!
Lodz has a great potential but among the rest biggest cities in Poland is still far behind in terms of development.

Been to lots of places in Poland but never to Łódź... going there this summer and looking forward to it :D

This looks like such a great place for a city break. Also, I had no idea that's how you pronounced it!
That tripped me up a fair few times too! I think Łódź is going to get a lot more popular over the next few years!
@@AnAdventurousWorld You can always call it Boat City ;)
Nice video. Just the essencial
Sooo curious about Poland! Would definitely like to visit after seeing this though!
That's great to hear! Łódź is such an interesting city and an amazing place for a weekend break!
Please visit 1) Kraków 2) Wrocław 3) Gdańsk 4) Gdańsk first , Łódź is like the Polish Manchester there is a lot lot better😂
Łódź is the ugliest city in Poland bro

Łódź and Poland in the beautiful
Thank you, I appreciate the comment! I hope you can follow for more adventures!
The city of Łódź (Boat) the small big city!
Yes! It was so easy to get around and very walkable.
Thank you for indicating that the spelling is different to the pronunciation. I almost thought that I’m watching the wrong video 🤣
Ha, you're very welcome! It's quite confusing a first, so I'm glad I added it in!
Absolutely LOVE your video!!! Update for 2022: the prices have significantly went up haha and Lodz generally is really really ugly! but you highlighted the best parts!
Awwww thank you! I knew those prices wouldn't last forever!
I went to Łódź once and a woman stole my heart. This isn't a romance story, I had to get a new one.

Whoop whoop!
Excellent pronunciation 👍🏻

Hey. Great video. I will be traveling to lodz for vacation and my friend is going to the university there. How far is those sites from the university?
Good question! I've just checked on Google maps and it isn't far. It should be walkable, but if not definitely by public transport. Lodz is quite a small city and very easy to get around!
@@AnAdventurousWorld thanks. I am looking forward to seeing the sites there

Is there a good place for an Erasmus student??
Good question! I think this is a really popular student city, but I'm not too sure about Erasmus students.
*Piotrkowska street (female like sound's)
I found the pronunciation of Polish names so hard!
My mind is blown that it is pronounce like "Wootch" lol
I know, right!? I was the same too when I first found out!

There's one in Lodz!
Łódź is the Polish Manchester 😂
I've heard a few people say that actually! I really enjoyed my time in Łódź - it's a cool city!
I've also been told it is the Detroit of Poland. Why though?

@@travellover8509 its couse of the industrial history. Manchester is a symbol of fast industrialisation in hole europe.

Is there a lot of diversity there? Are there hijabi Muslims?
There's a fair amount of diversity as it's quite a big city.
