10 Reasons Why You HAVE to Visit Poland!

And there he is. The best ambassador of Poland :)

[@TheBart-Official]

I'm honestly surprised why the US Embassy didn't come forward with some patronage here over the years we enjoy this channel 😳

@@TheBart-OfficialIt should actually be the PL embassy in the US. This channel is doing an excellent promotional job for Poland.

Poland is an all-bioms compressed. From mountains throgh the plains to the seeside. Forests? Fields? Deserts? There you go.

[@vicsingularity1040]

Getting to Poland pretty soon. Can't wait ✌️🔥🤘

[@bifa5414]

Some of my favorite places in Poland are: - Wieliczka Salt Mine - Wawel Castle in Krakow - Castle in Malbork - Torun - Moszna Castle - Czocha Castle There is A LOT of castles in Poland ;)

[@TallisKeeton]

Stawy Milickie - Milicz Ponds - beautiful reserve of marshes and birds.

I stopped by your school when I visited Częstochowa with a friend who I was studying abroad with in Kraków. Unfortunately I didn’t get to meet you but your videos are what inspired me to go and visit my ancestral homeland. I loved Poland so much that I decided to transfer to the Jagiellonian University in Kraków and finish my degree in Poland. I will be moving back to Kraków in a few months and I can’t wait to return to this amazing country.

Aww, so I have to meet you next time! Shoot me an email at [e-mail]. Sorry I missed you ;(

When i'm giving a tour of Warszawa to my friends from abroad I always, after showing them standard destinations, take them to metro station Centrum and after 15 minutes when they go out at metro Wawrzyszew, next to Lindego forest their jaws drop only to be even more shocked when after 15 minutes hike, we enter Nature 2000 preserve of Bielański Forest. They can't believe that 15 minutes ride from the middle of a capital city you end up in wild forest with deers, boars, foxes, with nothing but a song of the birds and wind in the trees. :D It gets EVEN better after we walk down to the Wisła and walk down the stream as they see people fishing, making campfires, playing guitars on a wild, secluded beaches, only to get mind blown when we hop on a ferry and end up on an opposite bank at Tarchomin and walk upstream on a cliffs through widing path in yet another forest and end up next to busy tram stop and after short ride end up at Plac Wilsona in the busiest place of Żoliborz district. Looks of astonishment on their faces is priceless xD

[@christinawrobel4869]

Hope your family enjoys their visit. It would be interesting video to have you tell us their impressions, their favorite places, foods.

[@jacobvhs]

Poland is like a menu in relatively cheap but good restaurant. It’s not Michelin Stars quality, cause there are places in the world where you can find higher mountains, warmer seas, bigger lakes and so on. But there’s plenty of food to choose from this menu. So you wouldn’t be bored.

[@walterweiss7124]

rather not a compliment; for someone who has no ancestry there it may be just an average country, but for us who were born there and had to emigrate it's the place we want to return and die someday

[@mariel9385]

[@markmulder996]

The best thing is that they probably won't see it coming. People in the west still have this idea that Poland is still stuck in the 70's behind the iron curtain. This usually increases the shocker they get when seeing all the beauty poland has to offer. PS. on your list, i'd add the wealth of castles and palaces. There's SO much of them all over the place! Hope your family has a blast. And since it'll be 10 years ago since i moved to Poland soon, maybe it's time to get some family over from the Netherlands here and do a similar trip :)

[@michaelmckelvey5122]

@@LoveMyPoland No, not really-sadly, too late. Have you not gone out into the countryside around Czestochowa and seen the new houses and the price tags they now achieve? When I came to Czestochowa and came to Base School of English, I was staying with my wife's sister out on bus route 25. I went for a walk as far as a road called Jemiodowo, I do not know where they get the cash from but the days of cheap communist Poland are long since gone. It is probably a mixture of E.U. funding as well as working overseas and then sending the money back to Poland to invest. Whatever, the days of the Syrenka and Polonez motor car are well behind us now as well as cheap land and housing. Danieljurkiewicz talks about ''good to invest here'' but when it was good to invest in Poland, sadly only Polish people had the right to buy in Poland, now, everybody can but do they still have adequate funds or deep enough pockets?!

[@IamNotANumber3929]

Hi! When I lived in Poland I was curious to why some of the road signs had two route descriptions. My Polish friends told me it was because the area had their 'own' language. I believe it is a language called 'Kashubian' (correct me if I'm wrong... I had to look it up! Sorry...). I thought it was both fascinating and brilliant that Poland would go to such lengths to retain the language. They also told me about the mountain ranges to the south of the country and one day I hope to get there and appreciate them for myself. Great channel by the way and appreciate you passing on your knowledge.

About our Baltic sea... There are many spots on this sea, that water temperature are much higher then in others area. You can check this on 'water temperature' data and go to place, if you wanna go into sea.. swim, etc., where this temp. is higher. For example.. in same day in some places, water temp. will be around 15-17 Celsius degree, but in other this same sea can have around 21-22 Celsius degree. This few degree can make BIG difference for you. 😀 If you have good spot, you can spend almost whole day in sea. And have great fun from waves and from that, that you can go far away from cost line on food. 😀 Because Baltic sea is v. shallow sea. And often you can go around 500 meters from cost line into sea, just walking. 😀 And water in sea is great, because have less salt than 'normal'. And sand beaches... ARE THE BEST!! 😀

That was amazing! If you continue this subject, try to mention Polish soups and cakes, all the wild mushrooms dishes, meat dishes such as kotlety mielone or duck in apples. What about potato pancakes? And the landscapes such as Mazury lakes, Błędowska desert, Łeba dunes, Baltic cliffs and lighthouses. And one thing more: Polish hospitality. People are great with foreigners, especially from the US and other "rich" countries they admire and envy. But are hostile and mean for each other, among the Poles. And if a Pole emigrates or simply travels abroad, another Pole is his greatest enemy which is sad😢 Great videos, I'll be watching 😊

I know it's a dark subject, but you should have included the Auschwitz and Majdanek memorial museums. Sure, it is not fun at all but they are both moving experiences, and after the former is right between Zakopane and Krakow after all - If I recall well, the trip by bus from Krakow is no more than 45 minutes. And the town of Oswiecim is very nice, a welcome relief after visiting the former camp (weirdly enough, there is a bar blocks away from it) . Ah, on a brighter note, if you have time with your family, head over to Chelm (an hour or so from Lublin) and check out the Chalk mines. They are unique in the entire world - tunnels and tunnels of chalk mines carved right under the town of Chelm. You might even catch a glimpse of Du Bieluch, the mine's elusive ghost.

Funny thing really as I have just flown back from Poland this very morning. I stayed for the best part of a week in Krakow and then took the train to Czestochowa Stradom. As I walked around the very hot streets, and believe me, there has been a real heatwave in Poland these last few weeks, I even found the school Base but the doors were usually locked except for the last time on Tuesday late afternoon when somebody, definitely Polish but with a a strong but funny American accent, was having a telephone conversation with somebody about fat young people and how to lose weight-I decided not to intrude. I liked Czestochowa, in fact, in some ways, it is more natural and less tourist focused than Krakow and I spent a happy two hours or so around Jasna Gora. I can recommend a nice little cafe there at the foot of Jasna Gora that prepares a very nice zapiekanka for 14 zloties-well worth the stop-off. It might be worth mentioning that the school Base is almost adjacent to the museum where my wife worked for some time many years ago. Visiting Czestochowa should become even easier soon as a train is being built between the airport at Katowice and it should connect with Czestochowa itself, at the moment, it is still a seventy kilometer drive.
