Cieszyn Silesia – sport, culture and nature
The region is located in the south-eastern part of Silesia, centred
around the city of Cieszyn and the Olza and Vistula rivers. The
unusual combination of natural values, the rich folk culture of
the Silesian Highlanders, the inhabitants’ strong sense of re-
gional identity and the interesting Piast and Austro-Hungarian
history make it a place worth visiting. And thanks to the special
microclimate and brine deposits, in mountain towns, in Ustroń
and Wisła, you can combine relaxation and rest with health.

Poznań – the pearl of Wielkopolska

Poznań is one of the oldest cities in Poland. And also the tastiest.

city will be included in the next issue. You must visit Ostrów
Tumski to see the oldest cathedral in Poland, then visit one of
the newest castles in Europe, erected at the beginning of the
20th century for Emperor Wilhelm II, and the Enigma Cipher
Centre. It takes 20 minutes to get to the palace in Rogalin and
the famous oaks or the castle in Kórnik and the arboretum.

industry and gave it a unique character. To this day, it is visible

the UNESCO City of Film Lodz Route, where you can find the
locations of Oscar-winning productions. It is also worth visiting
