impressive since the big metal
thing in Paris. Seriously though,
plan at least half a day to get
to grips with this place, not to
mention the adjacent
steel

& the surrounding
zoo
parks & gardens. Well worth the
trot outside of the center . . . . .
out anarcho-performance artists
called
the Orange Alternative
staged a slew of
Dadaist
anti-communist protests. One of
which was to dress up like
gnomes & run around the city.
Now we finally know how the
Cold War came to a screeching
halt… naughty gnomes . . . . . in

Daily from 09.oo till around
17.oo... This 360 degree mural is
the pride & Joy of
Wrocław
& a
must see. While I was a bit
skeptical about spending some
money & half hour of my time
seeing a mural of an obscure 200
year old Polish-Russian battle…
it turned out to be pretty
damned impressive
. The
mural depicts the epic battle of
Polish soldiers & peasants
against Russian & Cossack
brigades. The Polish force was
led by
General Kosciusko
(of
American Revolution & Krakow
Mound notoriety) as part of his
uprising to keep Poland inde-
pendent. The canvas is impressive
& so is the low-fi set decorations
protruding from the canvas giv-
ing a 3-D’ish effect & the hi-fi
handsets that whisper the depicted
history in 1 of 6 languages at the
same time. The whole experience
is
a little surreal
, especially if
you are lucky enough to get stuck
with a group of 50
pointing,
poking & giggling
Polish kinder
school kids . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

...There is
...a small little lane
in the old city called
Jatki
(E2)
where you will not only find
some of the most interesting
independent art galleries in the
city (check out the textile
gallery, silk screen & textile
galleries) but the alley is also
home to some heavy metal
party
animals
, literally . . . . . . . . . .
...The Red Baron…
Yup, the
one & only was born & raised in
German Breslau in the early 1900's.
Born Manfred von Richthofen,
he is known for being the terror
of the German Imperial Air
Service in
WWI
. He had more
confirmed kills than any other
pilot in the war. The original
Top
Gun
was a bit too trigger-happy
however & after being begged to
retire after 50 kills he finally
took one for himself on April 21,
1918. He is officially credited
with 73 kills & inspiring exactly one
Charles Schultz parody & more
than 1 porno.. high flyer style. . . . .
...A-gnome-ilies...
A little
known fact about
Wrocław
is
that it is home to a population of
Ancient gnomes… Some of
these little critters jump right
out at you but most of them are
hidden quite well. There are at
least 15 of them …… nobody
knows how many in total, even
Wrocłovers
; they're spread all
over the city & finding a new one
is always a big deal…. hangin
around town so see if you can
locate them all… (prize to be
named later). They even have
their own names, professions &
temperaments. But seriously,
aside from just being cute,
quirky, & great photo-ops, these
little dudes actually have a lot of
symbolic meaning for
Rockław
.
In the 1980's a group of whacked
...John of Capistrano…
This
preacher in the 15th century
heated things up a bit by giving
speeches from the middle of the
Salt Square with a
Skull in his
hand
. He viciously condemned
everything "evil" from gambling,
popular books to mirrors & even,
gulp,… Jews. He eventually
demanded that all Jews either
convert to Christianity or be
burned at the stake . . like a
knyszas . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

almost every bigger bus stop (ticket
machines), the price is the cheapest
in Poland - 1.20 Pln (student),
2.40 Pln (normal). . . . Or you can

"The moment I stepped out
from the train station I fell in love
with this city"
…>>>…….
SO……
Dear City Spy Map holder,
be aware that many streets in
Wrocław
are under construction
this season, so the trams tend to
change their routes quite often.
Luckily
, all the locations on the map are
within walking distance - it's best to avoid standing in the traffic... .
Crazy
tram drivers (more
women
than anywhere else!) - watch out & cling to the
rail. . .
. Really short
traffic lights - be sure you're ready to cross the street
in 3 sec, the lights turn red usually while you're in the middle of the street
(the reason why people of Wrocław live longer; the elderly gets a good training
each time they get out on the street). . . . .
Two kinds of animal
what appear
commonly:
sparrows
during the day (like to eat out of your plate while sitting
on the Main Market Sq.) &
rats
at
night (like to bite your ankles
while
smoking
outside clubs). . . .
Watch
out for your bike!
- evil
doesn't sleep. . . .
Wrocław
is the
hottest city in Poland, it's average
temperature is always the highest,
even in the day time!!
. . . . . . . . .
. . . . . . Late night beer outside -
Wyspa Słodowa
(F,G1),
Wyspa
Piaskowa
(G,H2)
or
Ostrów
Tumski
(by the river 1,2)
. it used
to be the places where police never
showed (u see drinking out door is
against the law actually or is that
technically..?) but lately things
change - just don't feel too confident
(or is that drunk..)-:)) . . . . . . . . .
. ..
Wroclovers
has an obsession
about
dogs
- almost everybody has
one. It is nice, pet friendly people
& places all around, though you do
have to look under your feet,…… coz shit happens. . . . . . .
Wrocłove
is
very safe, no need to worry while walking around the city at
night
. . (of
course stay reasonable, it's never a good idea to wander around the Main
Railway Station or to look for adventures far from the city centre). . . . One
of the citie's wonderful secrets is the omni-present
owls
sprayed on buildings
all over the city by the Wroclove's most undercover artist (some call him
The
Mysterious Theodor
, but nobody's seen him working) . . . . .
Rockław
is the
city where
the buskers
never sleeps - u see them in incredible abundance
animating the cities street life; passers-by be encouraged to join in there. . . .
Almost
everybody speaks
German or at least understands the language of
switched verbs . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

Did you
like to hide
in a cupboard
when you where little? Well, I'll tell u
here - u still can! The name of this
club means 'cupboard' & it'll give a
shelter to anyone seeking good
music, grande birra & a space to
bounce
. You can
hide
in here to
forget about the day or make the
day
unforgettable
. Every Mon is a
'
sad man singing day
' (also known
as Karaoke night), every Tue a live
gig for free
(Jazzy, Bluesy, Rocky…),
every day: darts & a bar with all the
liquids one might need.
It's claaasic
.
If there
is a cake
, then this takes it!
for the best all around bar, club,
watering hole. Highlighted by ancient
dimly lit courtyard-
beer garden
(April to
October), funky-junky underground haunt
& smooth, grooved-out lounge - the
minute you walk through the gate you've
sealed your fate. . . . has got a lil'
something for everyone; those too drunk
to care, those gasping for air, the two
humping on a chair, & hipsters with striped
shirts & angled hair.
Great music,
new friends & live gigs await you
..The same name as the famous
Wroclavian
flea market.
Not by accident
of course. As one can predict, all the
furniture & decorations inside are
simply 'old-school' junk gathered by
the owners - two
wonderful ladies
.
Two words fit here perfectly: hippie &
funky. Makes you feel so much cooler.
The drinks have weird names, the
music can make you cry, the colors
make you
feel dizzy.
No wonder. It's a
joint for
alternative people
. Whatever
that means. ? . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

of stylish space for you

. Much
bed/room/bathroom ratios to
choose from.(bathrooms have yet to

always suggested

we're sure Ornette Coleman &
