Wrocław (Vro-tz-wa-av) - a beautiful city in south-west Poland, where Intel will build a semiconductor assembly and test plant. Where I met the most relaxed and friendly people in Poland. People in Warsaw are often in a hurry and brash. People in Wrocław are the opposite.
Wrocław, population 674k, is the 3rd most populous city in Poland, after Warsaw and Cracow.
Wrocław has 84 km of tram tracks (system length) and 408 stops.

| Bike racks on an intercity train. |
 |
| Wrocław Main Station (Wrocław Główny) - one of the best looking train stations in the world in my opinion :-) |
Another angle of the train station.
 |
| One of hundreds of dwarfs (krasnal). |
 |
| Old City Hall |
 |
| The VEGA vegan restaurant. |
 |
| Always great to see bike racks. |
 |
| What happened to the footpath here? |
 |
| A courier van parked in the car lane, NOT in the bike lane. 100% Wrocław spirit. |
 |
This street leads to the train station - you can see it at the end.
It should be a leafy pedestrian boulevard, not a car sewer. |
 |
| This is the essence of Wrocław for me: grand houses around the square and two small medieval houses joined by an archway stuck in the corner with a background of St Elizabeth Church. |
 |
| Cars ruin cities. |
 |
| The designer of the top floor of these houses committed a crime. |
 |
| Bikes - good, graffiti - bad. |
 |
| This narrow street can be found in the Market Square. |
 |
| Bikes, tram tracks, bike path, opera. |
 |
| Map of the bike routes. |
 |
| Car sharing - Traficar |
 |
| Local football club - WKS Śląsk Wrocław |
 |
| The Oder river (I think). |
 |
| A Škoda tram. |
 |
| A mural advertising the Nadodrze suburb. |
 |
| Market Square |
 |
| Ossolineum |
 |
| Sunbathing and reading... |
