Trip Moments Recommendations
📍 Wroclaw, Poland 🇵🇱
💡 Wrocław is divided into two main tourist areas: the Old Town and the Cathedral Island.
The Old Town is full of Eastern European-style architecture, such as the Town Hall, St. Elizabeth's Church, the Market Hall, and the rows of houses around the Central Market Square. It is not large, and you can see all the attractions in about an hour.
The Cathedral Island is named after the Gothic double-towered Cathedral of the Virgin Mary. Visitors to the Cathedral Island must pass through the Tumski Bridge. Locals believe that locking a lock on the bridge will bless their love, so there are many locks left by lovers on the bridge.
💡 樂斯拉夫基本分為兩大景點區：舊城區與教堂島。
舊城區充滿東歐特色建築，如市政廳、聖伊莉莎白教堂、集市大廳及中央集市廣場四周的排屋。因其面積不大，大約一小時閒逛便可將所有景點盡收眼簾。
教堂島則是因哥德式的雙塔聖母主教堂而冠與此名。到訪教堂島必會途經圖蒙斯基橋，因當地人認為把所扣在橋樑上便可保佑愛情堅固，所以橋上有眾多戀人留下的鎖。

Dwarf hunting in Wroclaw
How do you make a city very attractive to young children? You place several hundred dwarfs spread over the entire territory. That is how the Polish city of Wroclaw reasoned and immediately they had a new tourist attraction. The 'dwarf hype' has now grown into a real quest through the city. You can even get a map at various souvenir shops and tourist offices.
Of course, the dwarves in Wroclaw owe their existence to the history of the city. By the 1980s, communism was still in power in Poland. In some cities, including Wroclaw, this was accompanied by fierce resistance. The Orange Alternative Movement was a nonviolent protest movement that stood out in a very special way. The members walked through Wroclaw dressed as dwarfs and also drew dwarfs through the streets. Of course there was nothing illegal about that. These absurd actions contributed to the fall of communism in Poland.
In 2001, a first statue of a dwarf was unveiled in memory of this heroic protest. 'Papa Dwarf' has now become a real hero and has been joined by more than 400 other dwarfs. You will undoubtedly encounter a lot of them during your citytrip to the Polish city of Wroclaw.

Wroclaw Wroclaw
Looking for the Dwarf trail in Wroclaw, Poland, I accidentally caught up with the music fountain. It is not the largest city in Poland, but it is my favorite. The dwarfs are actually to commemorate the "orange movement" of local youths who rebelled against the government in the 1980s, when a group of young students dressed as dwarfs wandered around the city. The bronze statue of the dwarfs now extends to symbols representing every storefront and industry. You can ask for a map of the dwarfs from the travel advisory office, otherwise it will be difficult to gather the complete parts. #Traveling around the world #History Story #See the world #Travel #Artwork #Music Fountain #Poland #Good scenery #Good weather #Share the most beautiful scenery in the album #The scenery around #Humanities attractions sharing #Travel #Finding the dwarfs #See the world #Not to be missed #One Day trip #scenery #beauty on the trip #my travel diary #today is another worthy day #light show #music fountain #travel #wroclaw #dwarf #Poland #music fountain
Dwarfs or Gnomes?
The Best attraction to do in Wrocław is to find the Dwarfs scattered around the city starting in 2001, They commemorate the Orange Alternative (Polish anti-communist movement), a monument of a gnome was officially placed on Świdnicka Street, where the Orange Alternative gatherings used to take place.
The Orange Alternatives used to dress up at Gnomes to protest communism.
There are currently over 1000 Dwarfs/ Gnomes scattered around the city.
Can you find them all? I have to admit some are hard to find!! #Dwarf
