Wrocław

When to go

Spring and early autumn are particularly good for walking. In summer, events and waterfront areas bring the city to life, while the old town is especially atmospheric in winter.

Things to see and do

Walk around the market square and Cathedral Island, explore bridges and the banks of the Oder, and visit a museum and Centennial Hall.

Practical tips

The centre is easy to explore on foot, but sights are spread across several islands and districts. Trams are practical for more distant destinations.

Getting there and getting around

Wrocław has an international airport and good rail connections to other Polish cities, as well as Germany and Czechia. Trams and buses operate within the city.

Where to stay

The old town is convenient for a first visit. Areas near the railway station suit train journeys, while Nadodrze offers a more local atmosphere.

What to try

Try pierogi, Polish soups, potato dishes and local pastries.
