Wroclaw

A trip to the dwarf city

From Katowice we went again by train to Wroclaw (Breslau) for less than 15€. Wroclaw is located in the northeast of Katowice and we arrived after a two-hour train ride. Our accommodation was again very close to the train station and we could check in directly. We had a small room with bathroom and kitchen and the room was very modern - but the house almost fell apart just by looking at it. We had to take the elevator to the 3rd floor via a separate entrance and then take a very narrow balcony-like path to our accommodation. However, this long balcony path was only secured with pressboard and we were even more surprised to find such a clean and bright room behind it!

Maybe I'm alone with my opinion, but I personally found Wroclaw a bit nicer than Krakow! What is especially cute is that there are little dwarfs everywhere, which are set up all over the city. So it's fun to go on a search.

But even apart from the dwarves, the old town is really worth seeing. We really liked the atmosphere there.

But not only the city center of Wroclaw is beautiful - it is also worthwhile to go outside the city center. North of the old town the Oder flows along and in the middle of the river there are small islands connected by bridges. The islands are very inviting to stay. If you walk a little further, you can already reach the cathedral, which is really beautiful!

Wroclaw was our third city in a row and we felt like a bit more nature afterwards. So we went from the dwarves to the giants - to the Giant Mountains to Jelenia Gora.
