 It’s safari in Świerkocin near Gorzów Wielkopolski. You
could see there more than 600 species of animals from the
whole world.
An area of Safari ZOO is about 20ha. Roads are similar to
African Savannah , wild prairies or Mongolian Steppe and
they lead to the most exotic animals. There are four regions
in the ZOO: Asia , Africa, South America and Mongolian
zone.
 In the ZOO we have to move only by cars. We mustn’t go out
of the car and feed animals even if they come near us.
Thanks to that trip, we can see the animals in close-up ,so it
gives us the opportunity to have different view of wildlife.
If you share our passion for gold prospecting and collecting gold nuggets,
this place is for you.
Welcome to the capital city of Polish Gold - Złotoryja.
It is undoubtedly the most wonderful small town
in the Sudeten mountains. Only here will you find
gold - both in nearby streams, and in hearts of
inhabitants. For years local authorities have been
doing activities associated with traditional
seeking of the gold ore.This long-standing
experience shows that they provide high-quality
services which enjoy great popularity.
Gold Fever Prospecting
The atmosphere of the
gold prospecting triggers
unusual joy in participants,
arousing rivalry and
sometimes even leading to
the illness called „gold
fever”. Gold is the symbol
of the affluence and
riches. The word itself
evokes pleasant thrill in
hearts of many people.
In 2001 the
representation of
Poland participated in
the World
Championships in
Australia – from
where we brought
two gold medals, in
2002 in Japan we won
a gold medal in the
category of
amateurs, and in
2003 about 70 strong
representation team
of Poland took part in
the world
championships in
Switzerland taking
also high places
among competitors.
 The Polish Brotherhood of Gold Panning is an organization
operating for the promotion of the city, the region, and Poland as an
unusually attractive place for tourists. Their another objective is the
popularization of „gold panning" as an active form of family rest in the
natural environment.
 They are the only Polish organiser of ” gold prospecting” events displays, cups, regional, Polish , European and world championships. Till now
ten editions of the International Open Polish Championships have been
held in which a few hundred competitors from Europe, Australia and the
USA participated. They also got media coverage.
 It is a member of the world federation (World Goldpanning Association)
with the registered office in Great Britain.
In 2000 the Brotherhood was entrusted with the task of being the host
to the World Gold Panning Championships, which was recognised as the
"best tourist offer for Central and Eastern Europe".
The Western Country town
called 'Kansas City' in Rudnik
near Grudziądz in the
southern part of Poland.
It is not a very big village,
but it looks like in the old
western film. You can meet
cowboys or Indians there or
see a show. There are a lot
of them - for example a bank
robbery or defence of Alamo
fort.. Kansas City gives you
an opportunity to go to the
Saloon in the evening and
take part in dancing show
full of country dances. There
is also a small zoo and other
attractions.
I strongly advise you to see
the historical festival which
takes place at the Promenada
Centre in Rynia, near
Warsaw - the site of Viking
ruins.
The event is considered as one of the largest
and most important events of this kind in
Europe, every year it attracts one thousand
participants from dozen European countries,
as well as from United States and Australia.
During the festival, you will be able to see,
among others, Slav races and Vikings ships,
theatre productions, Slavs and Vikings battle,
presentation of early medieval crafts,
cooking and Slavs and Vikings camp, Slavic
wedding ceremony, sea battle, slaves market,
horse fighting, the presentation of Slavic
myth about the creation of the world, and
even a competition for the most dignified
beard. One of the main organizers of the
event is association: Slavs and Vikings Wolin Jomsborg - Vineta Center.

Tripe
Enjoy the meal!
Pierogi - dumplings, usually filled with sauerkraut
and or mushrooms, meat, potato and / or savory
cheese. There is also a sweet version for gourmets:
sweet curd cheese with a touch of vanilla, or other
fruits, such as cherries, blueberries or strawberries,
and sometimes even apples - optionally topped with
sour cream and sugar.
Bigos
Hunter’s stew - is a traditional stew
typical of Polish and Lithuanian cuisine that many
consider the Polish national dish. A savory stew
of cabbage, meat and sausage blended with other
ingredients like dried mushrooms or prunes and a
glass of dry red wine. There is no standard
recipe, as recipes vary considerably from region
to region and from family to family, depending on
spices added according to someone’s liking and
local tradition.
Gołąbki- a cabbage roll (also stuffed
cabbage) is a dish consisting of cooked
cabbage leaves wrapped around a variety
of fillings. The filling is traditionally
based around meat, often beef, lamb or
pork and is seasoned with garlic, onion and
spices. Grains such as rice and barley,
eggs, mushrooms and vegetables are
often included in the filling as well. As the
dish originated as a way to use leftover
food, other ingredients may also be used
in the stuffing.
Żurek- the sour rye soup is a soup
made of soured rye flour and meat
(usually boiled pork sausage or pieces of
smoked sausage, bacon or ham). In
Poland it is sometimes served in an
edible bowl made of bread or with
boiled potatoes. The recipe varies from
region to region. In Silesia, the żur
śląski, different from the more
traditional żurek, can be found. In the
Podlasie region, it is common to eat
żurek with halved boiled eggs.
In Poland, vodka
(Polish: wódka),
has been produced
since the early
Middle Ages.
Polish sausages, Kiełbasa, come in a wide range of
styles such as Swojska, Krajańska, Szynkowa, Biała,
śląska, Krakowska, podhalańska, and others. Sausages
in Poland are generally made of pork, rarely beef.
Oscypek (Polish; plural: oscypki) is a
smoked cheese made of salted sheep milk
Żubrówka- also known in English as
Bison Grass Vodka.
In Poland since the 16th century,
and by 18th century it was one of
the favourite raw drinks of the
nobility
Honey is the perfect
sweetener for hot
winter drinks
Infusion of herbs, berries
or fruits steeped in
alcohol

1978 - CRACOW’S HISTORIC CENTRE
Close to the Old City, the Royal Castle on Wawel Hill has also been registered on the UNESCO list. It was the centre
of power and chief residence of the kings of Poland from the 10th to the late16th century. Wawel Castle and Cathedral
overlook the River Vistula, and both edifices have had numerous conversions and additions over the centuries, which
has resulted in a mixture of styles: Romanesque, Gothic, Renaissance, and Baroque. In Wawel Castle you'll see the
biggest and most valuable collection of Renaissance arrases (Flemish tapestries) in the world - over a hundred of them.
1978 - WIELICZKA SALT MINE
There are tourists who come to Poland just to see the Wieliczka Salt Mine. It's the world's oldest commercial
enterprise still in business - salt has been mined here since the 13th century with no interruptions, although it's no
longer done on an industrial scale. Today's mine is a labyrinth of corridors and chambers 350 km long, 2 km of
which are accessible to visitors. The most spectacular sight is Saint Kinga's Chapel, although, in fact, it deserves to be
called an underground salt church in deference to its dimensions.
1979 - AUSCHWITZ BIRKENAU - GERMAN NAZI CONCENTRATION AND EXTERMINATION CAMP (19401945)
The Auschwitz-Birkenau death camp museum has been entered on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Several hundred
thousand people visit it every year. During the Second World War, the Nazis murdered Jews, Poles, Romany People,
Russians, and people of several other nationalities; the majority of those who died were Jews deported from all over
occupied Europe. Entry to the Auschwitz museum is through the gates immortalised in many films and photographs,
inscribed "Arbeit Macht Frei" ("work makes you free").
1979 - THE BIAŁOWIEZA FOREST
There's also a work of nature on the UNESCO list; the Bialowieza Forest, the biggest naturally afforested area in
Europe and the last remaining section of primaeval forest, with an abundance of flora and fauna unmatched anywhere
else in Europe. The Bialowieza National Park is also on the World Biosphere Reserve list. It's the habitat of the
European bison, the continent's largest mammal, 26 species of trees and 56 species of shrubs. The average age of the
trees is 126 years.
1980 - HISTORIC CENTRE OF WARSAW
Warsaw is also on the UNESCO list. It's hard to believe, looking at this city, that it was almost razed to the ground
during the Second World War. Once known as the "Paris of the North", this city, boasting 13th-century buildings,
ceased to exist having been bombarded. Little coloured houses surrounded by defensive walls, the spires of the
churches and the Royal Castle; it's all the result of reconstruction carried out in the post-war years. Warsaw's
Old City was entered on the UNESCO list as an example of faithful reconstruction including the preservation of
original sections of the architecture.
1992 - OLD TOWN OF ZAMOŚĆ
Zamosc was founded in the 16th century by the chancellor Jan Zamoysky on the trade
route linking western and northern Europe with the Black Sea. Modelled on Italian
theories of the 'ideal city', Zamosc is a perfect example of a late-16th-century
Renaissance town. It has retained its original layout and fortifications and a large
number of buildings that combine Italian and central European architectural traditions.
1997 - MEDIEVAL TOWN OF TORUŃ
Torun owes its origins to the Teutonic Order, which built a castle there in the mid13th century as a base for the conquest and evangelization of Prussia. It soon
developed a commercial role as part of the Hanseatic League. In the Old and New
Town, the many imposing public and private buildings from the 14th and 15th centuries
(among them the house of Copernicus) are striking evidence of Torun's importance.
1997 - CASTLE OF THE TEUTONIC ORDER IN MALBORK
Another UNESCO site which arouses excitement and admiration is Malbork Castle,
erstwhile headquarters of the Teutonic Order and the largest Gothic fortress in
Europe. It consists of three wards surrounded by separate fortifications and occupies
about 20 hectares. There's also a museum with an amber collection. The
Castle organises special night-time tours and son et lumière shows in its courtyards.
1990 - KALWARIA ZEBRZYDOWSKA THE MANNERIST RCHITECTURAL AND
PARK LANDSCAPE COMPLEX AND PILGRIMAGE PARK
Kalwaria Zebrzydowska is a breathtaking cultural landscape of great spiritual
significance. Its natural setting – in which a series of symbolic places of worship
relating to the Passion of Jesus Christ and the life of the Virgin Mary was laid out at
the beginning of the 17th century – has remained virtually unchanged. It is still today
a place of pilgrimage.
2001 - CHURCHES OF PEACE IN JAWOR AND ŚWIDNICA
The Churches of Peace in Jawor and Swidnica were built in the former Silesia in the
mid-17th century, amid the religious strife that followed the Peace of Westphalia.
Constrained by the physical and political conditions, the Churches of Peace bear
testimony to the quest for religious freedom and are a rare expression of Lutheran
ideology in an idiom generally associated with the Catholic Church.
2003 - WOODEN CHURCHES OF SOUTHERN LITTLE POLAND
The wooden churches of southern Little Poland represent outstanding examples of
the different aspects of medieval church-building traditions in Roman Catholic
culture. Built using the horizontal log technique, common in eastern and northern
Europe since the Middle Ages, these churches were sponsored by noble families and
became status symbols. They offered an alternative to the stone structures
erected in urban centres.
2004 - PARK MUŻAKOWSKI
A landscaped park of 559.9 ha astride the Neisse River and the border between
Poland and Germany. Blending seamlessly with the surrounding farmed landscape,
the park pioneered new approaches to landscape design and influenced the
development of landscape architecture in Europe and America. This integrated
landscape extends into the town of Muskau with green passages that formed urban
parks framing areas for development. The town thus became a design component in a
utopian landscape. The site also features a reconstructed castle, bridges and an
arboretum.
2006 - THE CENTENNIAL HALL IN WROCŁAW
The Centennial Hall, a landmark in the history of reinforced concrete architecture,
was erected in 1911-1913 by the architect Max Berg as a multi-purpose recreational
building, situated in the Exhibition Grounds. The 23m-high dome is topped with a
lantern in steel and glass. The Centennial Hall is a pioneering work of modern
engineering and architecture.
