The LARGEST STREET MARKET in POLAND is located in an Old Train Station.
I was shocked when my Polish friend took me to this massive street market and flea market in Poland. It's located in an old train station in Wroclaw Poland. But it spills out on to the train tracks, in front of the station and up to a kilometer away from the station. It's absolutely massive and they are selling household wares, clothes, shoes, fruits, candies and a thousand other items. This place literally has hundreds of different sellers, there is even a flea market at the end of the street market. This market started of the fall of communism in Poland, when people were looking for goods at cheap prices. My friend said that its even bigger now.

So are you loving Poland more than Spain yet? Saludos
That's tough to say, they both have many of the things that I like. Spain is for sure too hot in summer.
Hello. How do you make a living in Poland? Just curious. Thank you for making such great videos
Digital nomad. Thanks.
Tyskie means from Tychy. Tychy this town name near Katowice.
I didn't know that. 🍻👌
❤🤍💚💯💯💯
🙏
Americans are so annoying with their phony smiles. Poland sounds fantastic and ideal. Btw how do you make money as an American living in Poland? Thank you for sharing
Słucham i kolekcjonuje kasety magnetofonowe. W moim przypadku tylko pchli targ, sprzedają je za małe pieniądze, a nie jak w internecie ceny z kosmosu.😅
This is a great place to find old items like cassette tapes. 👌
1 - We are proud of it! 2 - Sometimes we complain about our public transport. But we compare it to western Europe, not USA. 3 - Modern - it is not only about skyscrapers. OK in Cracow we have only two (and I don't know if we need more). I think Poland is modern becouse whole system: public transport, education, banks (you can pay with your card almost everywhere). 4 - Pizza is rather not Polish but it is really popular. 5 - 95% of Warsaw was destroyed. But not all towns and cities damaged so much. 6 - YES. 7 - We see it as normal. 8 - Small. Well if you want to say something just say it, without ansking about my family. Especially if you don't know me. But if you need something, maybe I can help you. 9 - Sometimes we are complaining that they should be even more green. More. Form Americans it may be not much, but in Poland we have low and high mountains, Balitc See, lake districts. History of many towns and cities had stared in middle ages. So there is much to visit.
I appreciate the really detailed list of responses. I'm very impressed with Poland, it's people, culture and daily life. Dziekuje bardzo.
I like tgat you order meal and try to taste it and enjoy it not like some youtubers order 5 dishes and pretend to like everything after one bite and than leave it for waste. Next time I recommend fir you Pod Jaszczurami Klub at Market Square 8. All night karaoke bar. You can be lucky to see some talented singers from all over the world. The musuc is international. Greetings😉
One of my favorite things to do in each country I visit is to get to know the local cuisine. I do try to learn about the food I'm eating and enjoy it. Polish food is particularly delicious. Thank you and thanks for the recommendation about the karaoke bar. Cheers! 🍻
Thankyou my friend
Thanks for tuning in.
Poland is relatively safe country, no illegal migrants.

Your clip will have archival value. Design work is currently underway to restore the station's original function. The re-launch of the Wrocław Świebodzki station is planned for 2028.
That's the cool thing about CZcams. Maybe one day people will look back on a video with renewed interest.
I confirm very clean cities - streets, pavements, and probably the most aesthetic toilets in the world (I travelled).
I agree, super clean.
Big on toilets! Poles. This needs to be emphasized again. I grasped that when toilets in Paris itself drew my attention as so very much inferior (and North America is just a shithole on this from).
Pierogi are not even really a Polish thing, they came from Ukraine where they came from China. They look interesting but it is not like we eat them even once every week - we do not eat pierogi this often.
I think that's the only dish most Americans would know from Poland, maybe that and Paczki.
@@TravelAddictGuy Pierogi simply are not made by Americans and others as this takes time and effort - for this reason Poles do not make them at home anymore as they did years ago, just buy them for fast cooking at home. The good ones are made by crafty babooshkas and sold in Delikatesy. Industrial one are not that good.
Thank you for sharing this video. Glad to see also another aspect of how the current War in Ukraine fuels other economies and surely challenges the people affected by this situation.
It's a very interesting correlation.
@@TravelAddictGuy Look forward to more of your adventures in Poland.

Yes, CZcams blocks certain words.
one correction, Podlasie is not in the south but in the north of Poland, btw, I've never been to Swiebodzki street market but I had the opportunity to use trains departing from this station in late 90s, the Świebodzki station was closed in 2000 and fortunately it will be brought back to life and sellers of counterfeit clothing will have to find another place :)
I'm looking forward to seeing trains return to this station.

Swiebodzki zrujnował mi dzieciństwo. Tylko sobota była spokojna do wieczora. Bo potem handlarze zjeżdżali pilnować swoich miejsc, chodzi o tych dzikich za nastawnią. Jedyny plus to kilka razy jak służba celna wyjeżdżała to można było znaleźć torbę wypełnioną royal American spirit 🤣 teraz większość ludzi się wyprowadziła bo mają plany do budynków, które zmieniają się co chwilę. Są trzy budynki i 15 rodzin które tam mieszkało 🙂 ciekawostka: jeden z niewielu obszarów gdzie numery budynków nie są po kolei. Są zmiksowane. Obiekt strategiczny. Jedyne miejsce w Polsce czy nawet Europie, gdzie Gdzie czołgi mogą bezpośrednio wyjechać na rampy w centrum miasta. Chodzi o transport kolejowy oczywiście. Do tego pętla autobusowa to kiedyś był bunkier podziemny. Do tego było kilka mały bunkrów strzelniczych bla bla bla. Swiebodzki to nie tylko targ 🤣

Just love those markets, especially for fruit and vegetables way batter than in the supermarkets.
The quality of the fruits and veggies were outstanding.
You could buy pets there at one time, and in the 90s some people traded guns and bullets by the bucketful (prob the one that soviets left), which is obviously illegal. A lot of history in that place :) Across the street is another separate market for electronics, or was, not sure if it's still open. The last time I was there was 20 years ago.
It must have been really crazy back then. It's still a pretty wild place. 👌

It's been a very hot summer. Those places sound amazing. Email me if you have a video idea. Cheers.
@@TravelAddictGuy I have an idea :) you come to Jelenia Góra, visit the old town and then go (by car) to Wojanów, Staniszów, Karpniki, Trzcinsko (there is a nice ruin of a palace here, apparently they are going to rebuild it and turn it into a luxury hotel, no one knows when), visit the brewery in Miedzianka and have some beer, visit the Bóbr river valley (preferably by bike) and the Pearl of the West (Perła Zachodu), after an exciting day, you spend the night at the famous Baron Hotel, where there was a mafia shootout in 1998 and the next day you go to Szklarska Poręba or Karpacz, Karpacz is run-down resort town but still worth a visit ;) you can also go to former uranium mine in Kowary or go to famous Pilchowcie Dam (finished by Germans in 1912 after the great flood, similar to the one we had in 1997) where the famous bridge is located that was supposed to be blown up in the Tom Cruise Mission Impossible movie but nationwide protests stopped this insane idea in 2021 (and which bridge is soon to be renovated along with the railway line) :) there are really a lot of interesting things to see in the Jelenia Góra Valley, type in the search engine the phrase Valley of Palaces and Gardens (Dolina pałaców i ogrodów). You can also go to the top of Śnieżka mountain, the highest peak of the Karkonosze Mountains, but this is another topic and a whole day trip and be prepared for crowds of fellow tourists, serdeczne pozdrowienia z Wro and partly form the Jelenia Góra Valley! ;)
@@TravelAddictGuy ok, I don't want to waste another 10 minutes of my life on giving ideas for visiting the Jelnia Góra Valley, type in the search for Valley of Palaces and Gardens (Dolina ogrodów i pałaców)

Co do "chemii z Niemiec" to Niemcy oszukują Polaków. Niemieckie produkty sprzedawane na polski rynek są dużo gorszej jakości niż te same sprzedawane na niemieckim rynku.

@@TravelAddictGuy Podlasie region is north-east. Rzeszów is a city i south-east close to Ukraine in Podkarpacie region. You were talking about Podkarpacie and calling it Podlasie.
It might be cheap in the context of the conversion of the currency and the buying power of money that you are talking about in comparison to the US Dollar. But the true price is still talked to based of the economy of the country, the GDP and other factors. Even if you look through the products of the biggest and most known makers of the USA they will never have the same product priced the same in other countries. No matter the difference in size of the packaging or the quality even. But as a regular shopper this is exactly what everyone is nearly always focused on, no matter the business knowledge. Oh you make me miss polish food.
Those are some great points and yes Polish food is delicious.
This year the Summer in Poland is unusually hot! Enjoy the beautiful weather and the nature.

Hi kerry. Thanks for the shout out . When travelling around poland hungry cheq Republic ect can you spend euros or do you need each countries respective currency . Thanks
It's best to pay with the local currency. In Poland they use Zloty, in Czech Republic they use Czech Koruna (usually called crowns). In Hungary they use a currency called Forint. In most cases you can pay with your bank cards and your bank will do the exchange for you. It's a good idea to carry some local cash, because not everyone will accept a card. You can exchange your Euros in each of these countries or withdraw or use an ATM to withdraw the local currency. Your bank will charge you the best rate, with a 3% fee usually. Make sure to use the option let my bank do the exchange, do not accept the ATM offer to do the exchange, as they will charge a markup fee. Safe travels and thank you.
