She shows us typical regional dishes and some hidden gems, including a visit to the unmissable, magical Christmas market in the Old Town! What’s your favorite of Eva’s tips for Wrocław?

    I am from Chicago, my wife was born in the Podlaskie region, my first time visiting Poland was in 2019 and we road tripped to a few cities including Wrocław. Neither of us knew anything about Wrocław before going. Since then, and traveling to many places in the world, it remains among my favorite places and I can’t wait to return one day.

      Not sure if the date is the same each year but it started on 24th November this year and will last till 7th January. Christmas markets in Poland are beautiful visually but they may be overrated in terms of food which is usually tourist-oriented. Sometimes it's better to visit restaurants located nearby, at the market square, to taste local foods than overpay for it while visiting Christmas stalls. Not saying that all food stalls are of poor quality, just mentioning it so that you can be aware.

    • @stukafaust
      @stukafaust Před 4 měsíci +3

      @@henningbartels6245 I was surprised to see this on DW of all places but she is technically correct, the lands were returned to Poland from whence originally ruled them before Czechs, Austrians, and Germans subsequently settled and conquered them. On the other hand it wasn’t Poland’s choice or initiative (they were as surprised as anybody else by the border changes arranged on their behalf post-WW2). It’s also worth remembering Breslau was a real Nazi stronghold. During the 1932 elections the Nazis received 44% of the city's vote, their third-highest total in all Germany. In other words maybe the expelled citizens had to pay the price for subsequent events particularly in relation to Poland and Poles.
      Today the German heritage is much more acknowledged and respected. Two museums, the main City Museum located in the former royal palace, as well as the Depot History Centre have large collections and permanent displays about the German-era and the fate that befell Germans here at the end of WW2. Many personal items, photos, and stories are collected and brilliantly exhibited.
