Reaction To I Think I NEEDED to visit POLAND

[@yankomoreduck5722]

I have been to every major and nicer city in Poland, if I were to recommend the top 10 most interesting places in Poland to visit, these would be: 1. Wrocław, 2. Tricity (Gdansk, Sopot, Gdynia + Malbork castle), 3. Krakow (+ Wieliczka salt mine + Auschwitz concentration camp), 4. Warsaw, 5. Toruń (+Chelmno), 6. Zamosc + Lublin, 7. Sandomierz + Kazimierz Dolny. 8. Poznan + Gniezno, 9. Giżycko and Mazury 10. Zakopane

Where is Bieszczady ? For me its top3 :)

[@sefs]

@@LuckyAngel2000 I don't think the Bieszczady is a city

Lublin, Łódź, Zamość i oczywiście Warszawa. Jest tyle fajnych miejsc nie tylko Wrocław !!

There is around 38 mln Poles living in Poland and around 20 mln living abroad for decades and centuries. Poles scattered all over the world are called Polonia. It is estimated that in the USA Polonia equals 10 mln people. Poles are joking that the biggest Polish city is Warsaw (1,8 mln) and the second biggest is Chicago (1,5 mln Poles). This is not well known fact but Poles are a very pro USA society: strong common values like love of freedom, faith in God; common heroes like Kościuszko or Pułaski; implemented deep into Polish soul and character story about American dream. In my opinion Poles, altogether with British and Irish people, are the most pro american nation in the world and this is important trait of Polish national character. So if Americans think where in the world they can have honest friends, they should think: Poland.

August 11-17th is Pierogi Fest in Krakow. I love me some pierogi, but the ones they have there... Are just out of this world. If polish cuisine would taste like this on average it could easily compete for the title of the best cuisine in the world. As per what to visit the 1st time: the standard is pretty uncontested, as its Warsaw, Krakow, Gdansk, and Wroclaw. Thats when it comes to major cities, but if you wanna go off the beaten path a bit then Sandomierz, Torun, Kazimierz nad wisla, and Zamosc. They're the most picturesque. Lodz, "the Polish Detroit" is super interesting, but not pretty at all. Still, its fun and different from most of what you can see in Europe. As per nature: (if its summertime) 1000% Mazury (the lake country), then Pieniny, Bieszczady, and the Tatry mountains.

@Rene_Moor3095 I didnt forget. Sorry.

[@paulinarapicka]

I've been in Chicago in 2015. There is quite big Polish comunity "Polonia"- about 1,5mln ppl with Polish origin / ancestry. And the city feels like Gdynia in Poland :D

I am a Pole living in the UK for best part of the last twenty years and when I first went to Cornwall that is exactly what I felt I felt an instant connection to the place just like the guy from the video

Best pierogi are with wild blueberries served with sweet cream. But thats only in summer when they fresh picked not frozen

[@a_freak_like_me]

Agree 100%🤤🥟🥟🥟the best!

[@gantz1978]

Best pierogi are made at home and they are filled with love :) My aunt and my cousin make great pierogi filled with beaf or veal, boiled and topped with fried onion and bacon. If there is one meal I could eat for the rest of my life it is pierogi made by my aunt or my cousin (she is a daughter of my aunt so no wonder she make the same, great pierogi).

[@agataryznar5675]

have always wondered why tourists only visit the west of Poland, or possibly large cities. Now I'm glad that there are few tourists in eastern Poland.  Prześlij opinię Inni wyszukiwali również

[@piotrsodel3077]

I will explain to you what is happening with Poland very carefully. Poland is the same country as any other in Europe, but slightly different. Culture and food are the result of the fact that for centuries we have had a different thought identity and 26 nationalities that created this thought. You can find similar food in other countries, but it will taste different. Watch the movie "303 Squadron" where pilots from Poland, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, Russia and even Germany fought in defense of England. But they were all Poles.

[@skyfitsheaven7393]

I know you won't be served it like this in any restaurant in Poland but in my home we eat the potato and cheese filled pierogi (ruskie pierogi) with cinnamon, sugar and melted butter on top

[@wiesawpyc7370]

Historically Wrocław is nice mix with Polish, German and Czech influence. It was always a rich city, even richer than Berlin. For me this is the nicest big city in Poland if you think about architecture and people together. Wrocław is also a capital of most diverse and interesting region of Poland. Best regards! :)

[@Rafal-c5x]

Wrocław is a very nice city, but I have to tell that Kraków is even nicer. Kraków is also a capital of the most diversed and interesting region in Poland which is Małopolska (Polonia Minor, Lesser Poland) 😊

[@magorzataschulz6591]

Za dzieciaka (lata 80-te) co niedziela były pierogi. Zawsze można było kupić ziemniaki i cebulę i twaróg też był. Tylko mąkę trzeba było przesiać z robaków. Obiad był i jakoś się przetrwało.

[@wiedzma5493]

I don't know if you've got Lidl in Malysia but I'm sure in the UK Lidl sometimes there is Slavic week or something like that and you can buy pierogi with meat or with onion and potatoes to heat up at home. Of course they're not like from restaurant or made by mom or grandma, but if you've never had eaten pierogi, you can try those for start.

[@piotrnotecki6196]

If you want to know what Polish food is the best, I recommend the channel Andre Traveler is a Briton of Caribbean origin. He has a lot of vlogs from Poland or Polish restaurants in London. However, trips to interesting places and interesting facts about Poland are made by an Englishman, the name of the channel is Charlie & Rob - As We Are

[@hadzik]

For the first time visit, you definitely should go to Warsaw (alternatively, Cracow)😁

[@MayaTheDecemberGirl]

First Cracow, definitely.

[@adampaszczyca8334]

Well. Kraków and beside standard 'must see' places visit: 1. Ukraiński Smak restaurant located at Grodzka 21 street and order plate of pierogi with pure barsch :) 2. Food Truck site at Warzynca street 3. And ad the end, late night (yep, they are opening at 20:00 till 3 AM) oldest street food in Krakow - Kiełbaski z Niebieskiej Nyski at Grzegorzecka 4 street.

If you want feel polish spirit you should visit Kraków. The most beatiful city in Poland :-) After Zakopane and Gdańsk :-)

[@universalgaslighterrefiller]

the best pierogi are dumplings with cabbage and mushrooms in a 50/50 ratio, the most sour cabbage, so sour that it makes your face twist, plus forest mushrooms from your strange family member who picks them in the forest and is still alive, because edible mushrooms differ from poisonous ones in the smallest details (some foxes or other forest animals are probably pissing on it. but we pretend that they don't do it) cooked and then fried, served with fried onion. That's why in Poland gifts are opened on December 24, because you don't know if you'll live to see tomorrow eating the best dumplings. +1 who agrees, kurwa!

[@GdzieJestNemo]

pierogi with black currant and cream on top are the best ones

[@MayaTheDecemberGirl]

Really? I've never eaten, anywhere, dumplings with black currant - only with forest blackberries.

[@agnes08915]

Among the cities I recommend seeing Wrocław, Kraków, Gdańsk and Poznań. As for the regions I recommend, I recommend the sea and the mountains. I am from the Biszczady region, where there are beautiful mountains and a dam that created Lake Solina. I recommend the Wiliczka salt mines, the castle in Malbork, the Tatra Mountains and the Pieniny Mountains. These are both popular and less popular places, but there is a wide variety of attractions in Poland that may surprise you

[@nobaskikofane3637]

So i guess there is no train connection from praque to wrocław cause there are mountains in the way. But i dont know if thats true. Best dumplings are with cooked cabbage (or cooked "sauerkraut" as the google translator says) i like them fried with onion. Not so many people talks about those btw. And that one restaurant he was in called "konspira" you could kinda translate that like "conspiracy" which would fit communist era cause there was no freedom so everything had to be "talked" or "made in" conspiracy i guess

[@darek4488]

Pierogi is plural already. Do not add any ending!

Did you know that the word slave comes from the word Slavic, because the first slaves in Europe were Slavs?

[@januszfelkner7802]

Wrocław has 1 mln inhabitants. One thing to state clear. In Poland there was no communist era - it is not true. They tried to implement socialism based on communist ideas. Yes. But Poland has never been a communist country - it is very much an Instagram version of history. Poland had never adopted communism. And, by the way, Wrocław is one of the most beautiful cities in Poland and in entire Europe.

[@Duke_Silver]

Who told you that and what is your definition of communism? It was a centrally controlled economy with one ruling party, so it was a communist state in my book. There were some remnants of free market, for example small farms were not nationalised, and artisans had their own businesses. I remember my grandma had small tailor shop, so it wasn't maybe as bad as some other eastern block countries You can argue that people were not commies in their hearts, but the country was.

[@marcinszrajber]

Nie no, oczywiście. W latach 45-89 w Polsce panował kapitalizm i demokracja, żadnej komuny 😂

[@januszfelkner7802]

@@Duke_Silver maybe because I was raised there during that era and I am grown enough that need to be told ... I now well the history of the system. Still tis is basic knowledge; Socialism is a political and economic system in which the means of production are owned by the public, rather than by private individuals. This means that the government controls the economy and makes decisions about how goods and services are produced and distributed. Communism is a more radical form of socialism in which there is no private property and all means of production are commonly owned. This means that there is no government or state, and the economy is controlled by the people themselves.

[@januszfelkner7802]

@@marcinszrajber nie pisz jeśli nie masz pojęcia czym był komunizm, by the way jestem w wieku Twego ojca, posługujesz się stereotypowym uproszczeniem - podobnie jak ten autor. A tu podstawowe definicjie które powinieneś znać jeśli nie chcesz się publicznie ośmieszać. Socjalizm to system polityczny i gospodarczy, w którym środki produkcji są własnością społeczną, a nie prywatną. Oznacza to, że rząd kontroluje gospodarkę i decyduje, jak są produkowane i dystrybuowane towary i usługi. Komunizm to bardziej radykalna forma socjalizmu, w której nie ma własności prywatnej, a wszystkie środki produkcji są własnością wspólną. Oznacza to, że nie ma rządu ani państwa, a gospodarka jest kontrolowana przez samych ludzi.

If you're really considering visiting Poland I'd suggest to check Wroclaw, Krakow, The Upper Silesia Metropolis and Gdansk (Trojmiasto). Dont bother Warsaw, its really overestimated.

[@MayaTheDecemberGirl]

In Warsaw there are also many things to see.

[@radosawmatyszkiewicz137]

Gdansk is number one, in my opinion. It has a similar vibe to Krakow and Wroclaw but is located on the seaside, which makes it unique. Amongst foreign tourists, Gdansk is probably the most underrated Polish city. Whatever you choose, you should definitely avoid Warsaw for your first trip. It doesn't have the charm of Wroclaw, Gdansk, Krakow, Poznan, etc.
