The Izrael Poznański's Palace which currently holds the Museum of the City of Łódź costs about 25 PLN, which would be about 6.50 USD. The art museums will usually set you back about 15 PLN, however keep in mind that currently there's free admission every Wednesday (from 1 October 2024, the free admission day is moved to Friday). Most of the attractions in the city, if not free, should be in 8-25 PLN range.
I like it when I can learn something from these videos. I didn't know about the modern planetarium. Last year I took my kids to a planetarium in Toruń and we were disappointed. Seemed like they hadn't changed anything in 30 years.
Łódź była kiedyś miastem kina i filmowców oraz miastem fabryk włókienniczych. Produkowano tam i sprzedawano tkaniny i wszystko co niezbędne do przemysłu włókienniczego. Od zawsze Łódź była miastem fabryk więc wszystkie budynki z czerwonej cegły, które widziałaś, to stare fabryki przerobione na galerię, bary i miejsca do zwiedzania. Miasto dokonało renowacji tych obiektów i są teraz atrakcją Łodzi. My Polacy lubimy przerabiać 😊 i lubimy historię. Jesteśmy też kreatywni i kochamy rękodzieło, każdy w domu coś tworzy 😂. Pozdrawiam z Polski
Tickets to cultural institutions, museums, etc. are not expensive compared to Western Europe, and even considering the earnings of Poles. Usually the equivalent of a few (5-10) $. Only some of the most famous, top museums have quite expensive tickets - but most often they include guided tours lasting 2-3 hours; to the Wawel Royal Castle in Krakow is about $38-40 (depending on the exchange rate), a ticket to the famous salt mine in Wieliczka - about $25 (this is about 2-3 hours of walking underground, a guide is obligatory, many languages choice, there are even native speakers who give tours :) - and this is all included in the price). Most museums in Poland are public institutions that are not intended to make money - what's more, they are not even allowed to generate income (tickets and other services simply cover some percentage of operating costs). Each institution that is subject to the Act on Museums of November 21, 1996 must provide free admission to permanent exhibitions once a week. Most often, these are days outside weekends (sometimes only during designated hours), and the number of people allowed to visit may be limited or limited only to individual visitors. Free tours do not include guide services, some exhibits, or other additional attractions available in museums. If there is more than one museum in a given city, please remember that free admission days may vary in each institution. Detailed information is usually available on the website of a given museum. There are also certain categories of people who can visit museums for free, such as children under 7 (but for several years now, a program of the Ministry of Culture has been operating in numerous museums, where school children can visit with a ticket for PLN 1 - that is, about 25 cents), veterans, retirees of a certain age, etc. However, some museums are so specific that there are absolutely no free entrances to them - for example, you will not be allowed to enter the mine in Wieliczka as an individual tourist - for security reasons, so you will always have to pay something, and besides, on such free days, visiting can be be limited - and usually is - to only part of the exhibition. And the last piece of information in this slightly too long comment :) Directors of museums and cultural institutions have the right to consent to free entries in justified cases. For example, the museum where I work is visited free of charge by patients of a psychiatric hospital as part of museum therapy, with the consent of the director.
One hint: instead asking ChatGPT how to pronounce something in Polish (or any other language) just write it down in Google Translator, select designated language (Polish in that case) and click play button. It will simply read it loud for you. When you press play again it will read again in slower pace.
In Poland every city tries to be unique. They are all constantly developing and none is left behind. When one dominant industry falls, they try to reinvent themselves.
Cheap Poland does not mean free. Museums are paid, but on some days they are free. I wonder where such interest in the subject of Poland comes from - are we so exotic to you from the USA?😃 Pod koniec filmu dominowała muzyka i nie wiadomo co mówiłaś
Łódź is not a city for weak people. Unfortunately, it humiliates such people, but it gives strong people what they need. Of all Polish cities, it was the most multicultural, it is called the city of four cultures, although people came there from all over. Life in Łódź is not easy, but it is quite creative - a famous Polish actor described Łódź as a city of marginalized people. The inhabitants of Łódź immediately produced clothing with the inscription "I am a proud marginalized person from the city of Łódź."
This city is associated by Poles with a pre-war city taken over by Jewish manufacturers who exploited the Polish poor beyond measure - it has bad associations. Something at the end of the film, the music stung, that's what you were talking about.
Literally this movie is about Łódź having a: - stree art on old, devastated buildings, a shopping mall, some art that you wont understand... and stuff. So, in some moment in my life i wanted to go to film university there. I camed there 2 weeks before the egzams, and after 2 weeks i knewed i don`t want to live there for 5 years. Don`t bother with Łódź coming here : ) Or U wanna see how it was in PL 10/15 years ago.
Yes, it is hard to live there, but do not underestimate this city. It is constantly changing. It is much easier to revitalize the city when you pump a big amount of money, but remember that Łódź and around it was mostly connected with textile manufactures and after the collapse of Communism in eastern Europe was hit hard financially. So it's hard to renew this big area if you take into account all these circumstances. Also is not shown here all places worth visiting. For example the zoo or Museum of the Sewer ‘Tube’...
@@archidecydent ; ) Museum of the Sewer ‘Tube’, and world biggest ammount of shops with alcohol. Now it`s basically a bedroom for employees in Warsaw. It has great apocalyptic vibe, imo.
hey Darling, you have to fix sound, because it is just music from the half of film, greetings from Poland
Wow, greetings from my lovely Łódź

The arts scene there is huge and very lively.
It's a great city.
You said "łódź" almost perfectly!!
true
Thank you
fun fact: In Łódź is locate the best Movie, Television and Theatre School. Roman Polanski studied here.
I like it when I can learn something from these videos. I didn't know about the modern planetarium. Last year I took my kids to a planetarium in Toruń and we were disappointed. Seemed like they hadn't changed anything in 30 years.
If you end up going, take a video for me:)
Piotrkowska Street is the longest street in Europe.

Very good pronunciation as for someone without any knowladge about polish...
Thank you
It is nice you know that "Ł" is sounds like "W" in english and "Ó" is sounds like "oo" ex. in "look"
No actual Lodz citizen would consider some of those "amazing". But it's still a nice, historical city.
From 6:36 to 8:53 he and you were muted and we didn’t hear anything but the music. And y’all were muted again from 9:00 til the end of the video.
Łódż = Boat 🙂
