It's very interesting place for kids and adults. There are a lot of fossils, skeleton of mammoth and other the oldest animals! There is the mummy of little Mammoth his name is Dima. It is complete preserved one. There is a parking not far from the museum, on nearly street.

Probably my favourite museum in Moscow. It may not be as fancy as the Dinosaurs of Patagonia exhibition or anything like that, but it shows the entire process of how life formed on our planet, with all its stages and dozens of real examples in the form of fossils for each. If you want to see how life has changed on Earth, this is the place to visit

Absolutely stunning art, which is not what you normally expect to see at a natural history museum (ceramics, bronze sculptures, relieff, paintings) and , of course, amazing fossils! My favourite since childhood. However, when we were there, both the cafeteria and the gift shop were closed for reconstruction, which is unfortunate when you visit the museum with kids. The toilet facilities were also, in need of upgrades (which hopefully will come after the cafeteria is finished). Still, give the museum top grade, because it is a must-see, and the negative sides are assumed to be temporary

Museum is bit far from city centre A lot of dinosaurs bones Audio programme is also best It gives a feeling of our wonderful childhood. Must visit

Amazing museum! Very interesting permanent exhibition, polite personnel, and not too overcrowded even at weekend.

An interior is old. but the museum is interesting and there are many finds from the Jurassic period

Good selection of fossils (but displays could do with a make-over). I liked the sculptures and artwork.

On one of the most famous and largest streets in Moscow, the courtyard of the Zvenigorod Savvino-Storozhevsky monastery is hidden, built in a pseudo-Russian style with elements of modern and baroque. Previously, when walking in the center, it was hard not to notice one of the main decorations of Tverskaya, but in 1939 it was hidden from view. An interesting story is connected with its movement: the building, which weighed 24 tons, was moved deeper into the quarter at night - rails were laid under the foundation and smoothly transported to a new location. At the same time, the residents were not relocated and were not even specially warned. It is said that many of them discovered the change only in the morning, looking out of the window, and must have been very surprised at the unexpected move.

A must-see place for any tourist traveling around Moscow. But do not come here on weekends and church holidays, for crowds will ruin one's experience. If you are lucky, a monk may allow you to come up the bell tower. The view is magnificent. The sound is deafening.

Historical place. Old monastery and a church. Has coffee shop near entrance that serves good food, russian herbal drink. You can also buy lots of herbs and herbal remedies, as well as creams and tinctures. Very crowded on weekend, during weekdays more quiet.

Amazing holy place One must try local made mead drinks

Monastery is ok, but you will find inside the walls a pearl, a bakery shop and a café with amazing pastry,cakes,chocolates, 100% handmade and fresh. Very tasty everything. Queue of ppl to buy bread, etc... But it's worth to do it. It's cheap. Shop and café (you can eat everything you can buy in shop here) has amazing decoration, medieval style. Café is located upstairs, just in one of the towers and a door brings you directly to the walls... really beautiful place to eat/drink/rest.

The place is well-suited both for pilgrims and for tourists. They even have free wi-fi, special app for visitors available for iOS and Android as well, and the food is dietetical and tasty at the same time. As for the architecture, there are several buildings highly valuable from the historical and the aesthetical point of view. To cut the story short, just come and see it for yourself.

Great old holy place.

Its a beautiful park, a large variety of each type of birds and a few animals as well.Good for adults and excellent for young students/kids.Ample place for parking.There are restaurants inside the park as well as outside. Its a good option for a day picnic.Well maintained. Entry fees worth the visit. Why only 4 stars..I am animal lover, seeing caged animals/ birds is painful.

Great for kids to catch up on chicken variety. Plenty of animals to observe at close distance, so much better than Moscow's Zoo! Note, they do not accept cards.

Such a beautiful place, especially at the summer time. Recommend you to come here and relax, watching different kinds of exotic animals;)

Amazing place. Better than Moscow Zoo. Lots of birds and animals.

Great selection of animals (we've been there only in the half on the park, left hand side, didn't have time for "tropical" part). That has exceeded my expectations, nice and spacious place, well arranged. I must say we've been there on the 1st of January so it was almost empty, no visitors. At least that (I mean anything like that working on the the 1st of January) can tell one a lot ;) Nice place to take children but also quite interesting park for adults.

It's so cool place and very enjoyable.

Magnificent zoo, with focus on birds. Many species and not only birds. The otter and the ostrich are also very nice. We visited in winter so half of the animals were hidden. But even the remaining accesible part was so magnificent! We spent several hours here and were much exhaused before we finished the first part of the park. Will be back in spring to see the rest of the animals.

Great place to visit with family and children. Territory is huge and you have real examples of different houses in different centuries. To see everything you need whole day. What is more, you can go to several master classes where you can learn how to do some things. On a territory are some places with different animals. Really sad to see hasky dogs in a cages.

Fun place. But that mostly for organized groups that book tours and kids over 8 yrs old. The cafes are ok. The Korchma with Russian-Ukranian good is supposedly one of best at this locale. Most activities and exhibits inside the general park area are at additional cost. At far above average prices.

Quite unique ethnographic park, but feels more like a theme park. Plenty to do for kids, but it will cost you!

The largest ethnographic park in Russia! The trip to ETNOMIR is a bright and incredibly informative holiday in the Moscow region all year round. Unique excursions, master classes, animation and folklore programs, authentic country hotels, many cafes of national cuisine, festivals and holidays. More parking space. Presentation of different countries. I worked with the famous singer of Russia Natalia on a music video song ‘у меня есть только ты’ at ethnomir

It is better to visit it on weekends. Nice atmosphere of all over the worls culture, traditions, crafts and workshops. Big territory for walking around. Hasky and bird farm are great )

This is my first time in Etnomir. So, definitely it is a great place. There are many architecture styles that was merged into Mir Street and hotels. I was extremely impressed by facade of the Nepal hotel. In spite of this feeling with family we were staying in the hotel of East Asia and room was clean and sweet. And as we were lucky with the weather we could visit every place in this huge area and just relax in place that out of carbon dioxide and full of the fresh air in harmony with nature

Много интересного!! Very unique. Restaurant Glush is a must-see!!! Delicious food and very unique setting!

The museum offers an inspiring journey through the history of spaceflight, highlighting the pioneering achievements of Soviet and Russian cosmonauts. You'll see real spacecraft, space suits, and learn about the incredible lives and work of these brave individuals.

Brilliant museum and exhibition. Unfortunately, air condition was turned off and there were leaking in the new part in the left part of the window (with great view of nearby river). PS: the lack of air condition ruined our experience and we expect that it could ruin display items too. Hope that this issue will be fixed.

Very cool museum, lots of information and unique exhibitions

Worth a visit , it's a pity that's almost all descriptions are only Cyrillic

Advice: if you go to planetarium, take last seats!!! In front you can break your neck ) In other cases this museum is perfect, extremely interesting! Best to be explored with a guide.

Must visit, its worth the trip!

looking forward to the opening of the museum

(Translated by Google) There were a lot of people on Christmas Day, so we looked at the interior decoration through the doors. The temple is visible from everywhere, because it stands on a mountain. The road to it in bad weather can be unpleasant for a pedestrian. Bolshaya Sobornaya Street is not that big, and every now and then people get splashed with mud by cars passing by. (Original) Людей в Рождество было море, поэтому посмотрели на внутреннее убранство через двери. Храм видно отовсюду, ибо стоит на горе. Дорога к нему в непогоду для пешехода может быть неприятной. Улица Большая Соборная не такая большая, и то и дело людей окатывают грязью проезжающие мимо машины.

(Translated by Google) The magnificent Assumption Cathedral is a real pearl of Smolensk. You can see it from afar, and when you get closer, you are struck by the scale and beauty of the architecture. It is very light and spacious inside, the atmosphere is peaceful. A separate plus is that there is a small shop on the territory where you can buy fresh bread for only 50 rubles. A great place to feel the spirit of the city and touch history. (Original) Великолепный Успенский собор — настоящая жемчужина Смоленска. Видно его издалека, а когда подходишь ближе, поражает масштаб и красота архитектуры. Внутри очень светло и просторно, атмосфера умиротворяющая. Отдельный плюс — на территории есть небольшая лавка, где можно купить свежий хлеб всего за 50 рублей. Отличное место, чтобы почувствовать дух города и прикоснуться к истории.

(Translated by Google) We visited Smolensk and definitely went to the Holy Dormition Cathedral. The Cathedral is very beautiful, captivates with its grandeur. But there is one "but". This is the observation deck behind the Cathedral. It is all overgrown with weeds, which in some places are higher than the waist. Thistle thorns cling to clothes. Why can't everything be mowed down and make a visit to the observation deck comfortable for tourists? (Original) Посетили Смоленск и обязательно зашли в Свято-Успенский собор. Собор очень красив, покоряет своим величием. Но есть одно «но». Это обзорная площадка за Собором. Вся поросла бурьяном, который местами выше пояса . Колючки чертополоха цепляются за одежду. Нежели нельзя все скосить и сделать посещение смотровой площадки комфортным для туристов

(Translated by Google) I was impressed by the cathedral's visit, the grandeur and beauty of the iconostasis. The bread shop on site serves delicious bread. (Original) Осталась под впечатлением от посещения сабора,величие и красота иконостаса. На территории в лавке очень вкусный хлеб

(Translated by Google) The Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary is the cathedral of the Smolensk Metropolis of the Russian Orthodox Church. Located in the central part of the city of Smolensk on Cathedral Hill. Erected at the turn of the 17th and 18th centuries. An amazing place for the soul, where the Lord embraces you with his love! I like to come to the cathedral when there are not many people, I can calmly pray, turn to God, the Most Holy Theotokos, and the saints of God. You can venerate any icon with prayer and request; there are places where you can simply sit and breathe the spirit of the cathedral, this is especially important for elderly and sick people. Of course, on great holidays there is Grace everywhere, it’s just very crowded, you have to stand close together. Go enjoy God's house, its splendor and its beauty. Think about saving your soul!!! God bless you!!! (Original) Собо́р Успе́ния Пресвято́й Богоро́дицы — кафедральный собор Смоленской митрополии Русской православной церкви. Находится в центральной части города Смоленска на Соборной горе. Возведён на рубеже XVII и XVIII веков. Удивительное место для души, там Господь обнимает вас своей любовью! Люблю приходить в собор, когда немноголюдно, можно спокойно помолиться, обратится к Богу, Пресвятой Богородице, к Святым угодникам Божьим. Приложится к любой иконе с молитвой и просьбой, есть места где просто можно посидеть и подышать духом собора, особенно это важно для пожилых и больных людей. Конечно на великие праздники там Благодать везде и всюду, просто очень многолюдно, приходится стаять вплотную. Идите, наслаждайтесь домом Божьим, виличием и красотой. Думайте о спасении своей души!!! Божьей помощи вам!!!

(Translated by Google) Majestically towers over the entire city. Beautiful both outside and inside. One of the main attractions of the city (Original) Величественно возвышается над всем городом. Красив как снаружи так и внутри. Одна из основных достопримечательностей города

(Translated by Google) The temple is majestic, unusually beautiful, gracious. The impression is spoiled by the "auntie", who imagined herself to be something, exalted at the table with a sign. She takes upon herself the right to decide some and not to confuse others to the icon. A backward bureaucrat, apparently. Well, if you have such an honor to turn the temple with flowers, then you should not sleep for long, do it in advance, do not take a sin on your soul not to let people near the icon before the holiday, you will be known as wretched in mind (Original) Храм величественный, необыкновенно красивый, благодатный. Впечатление портит "тетя", возомнившая из себя нечто, за столом с табличкой возвеличившаяся. Берет на себя право решать одних и не путать других к иконе. Отставшая чинуша, видимо. Уж, если вам честь такая обратить цветами храм, то не стоит долго спать, сделайте заранее, не берите грех на душу не пускать у иконе перед праздником, умом убогими прослывете

It’s worth visiting but once, they also offer nice parties for kids during the summer with lots of open air activities such as foam parties and holi, however, it’s much better to purchase tickets online at least a few days prior to the event to save on the entrance fee on the day of festivities . They have a playground for kids and a nice collection of retro cars. The bistro on summer weekends and during any celebrations is just a nightmare!!! You have to wait in line for at least 30 minutes and the food is rather average, however the prices are rather low

Green complex, with historical and local filling of the traditions of the building. everything is clean and cute. the complex is not large, some part is closed to ordinary visitors. there is a place for horses. Here are held many interesting events and the whole Minsk gathers.

There are some old cars and you get tiny cheeses for tasting. All that for 23 rub. It totally doesn’t worth this much money.

I had really enjoyed my day over there, it is a nice place where you can clearly find out how past life of Belarusians was and buy the traditional products , handcrafted things , seeing old cars and the technique of making vodka in addition to the kind mentors like Lira .

I suggest you to take an excursion there, so you’ll have lots of fun with tastings of local products and drinks. Area is nice, but I was disappointed that everything was in Russian. Even the guides don’t do the tours in Belarusian. That’s sad. And the shield at the entrance wasn’t in a native language.

Pleasant place to spend few hours in. Not so crowded, not so big, this museum is an ideal place for trip with children.

Historical nice place with wide variety of traditional handicraft of Belarus and also you can meet hospitable Belarusians in their ancient attires :) <3

Very nice and beautiful place, recommend to visit to everyone who visits Minsk.

I would said nothing about place where is the library located . Because there is metro station just few hundred metres out. I wouldn't said nothing about how massive is the building . Because it's really big but looking nice ... Good luck !!

Amazing visit to a cheap price. Great view of the city on a sunny Minsk day is incredible. Highly recommend

An icon of the city of Minsk! A must for all tourists, go to the 23 floor for the view.

Famous and biggest library in Bilarussia. We visit it today 28th/08/2019 very nice place.

Very good

The observation deck entrance is at the back side of the building. Paid some fee, climbed the lift. The deck is overlooking the city of Minsk. Very beautiful view from here. There's a cafe and rooms for art exhibition. At night, we waited to see the light spectacle. Beautiful illumination. It's worth the wait.

Interesting place of worship. Remember to be respectful (wear full length trousers, covered shoulders). Tourists can go inside around religious services. More information about the place’s history would be helpful.

You don't need a ticket to see the Gates of Dawn. Just remember to be quiet and respectful when going inside. It's a really beautiful place of worship, and I was glad I had the chance to see it. Do budget some time in your trip to Vilnius to visit the Gates of Dawn.

Very cool, I don't get all the hoopla whatever deadly it's a pilgrimage site. You have to go to the side door to be able to get in make sure you check out the main cathedral it's also spectacular.

Excellent monument in blue shades . Looks serene and auspicious . Go in the early morning to have a peaceful look without tourist influx

Ostra Brama is an extraordinary place, deeply meaningful for Poles and for the Polish community. It carries the weight of history and national pride, creating a strong sense of connection with the old homeland. Visiting it is both moving and emotional – it truly touches a sensitive chord in the heart of anyone arriving from Poland. It is also an important site of religious pilgrimage, a sacred destination for those for whom faith is essential. A place of memory, spirituality, and identity – unforgettable.

The Gate of Dawn is a city gate in Vilnius, the capital of Lithuania, and one of its most important religious, historical and cultural monuments. It is a major site of Catholic pilgrimage in Lithuania. 👍

What a beautiful walk in a historic setting. Shops, parks, and restaurants all around too. A perfect way to spend a few hours.

Brest Fortress is one of the most interesting and powerful places I have visited. It’s not just an old building — it’s a place full of history and emotions. During World War II, in June 1941, German soldiers attacked the Soviet Union. The Brest Fortress was one of the first places they attacked. Even though the Soviet soldiers were surrounded and had little food or water, they fought bravely for many days. Some continued to fight for weeks. Their story is amazing. Today, you can walk around the fortress and see many parts of it. There is a big monument called “Muzhestvo” — a giant stone face of a soldier. It really makes you think about what happened here. There is also a museum with old photos, letters, and things that belonged to the soldiers. Everything is shown in a very respectful and interesting way. The whole area is quiet and clean. It’s a good place to learn about history and to remember the brave people who were here. If you are in Brest, you should definitely visit this place. I spent about 2–3 hours here and it was totally worth it.

Impressive fortress complex, with several large monuments, especially "Courage", commemorating the battle fought here against the invading Nazis in June 1941. All very Soviet-style overly dramatic, but still impressive, and worth a visit. Entry to the fortress is free of charge.

if you are in Belarus, be sure to visit this place, the energy of this place is going through the roof. be sure to take a guide to the open part of the memorial complex. history must be known and remembered, and not as it is now fashionable to forget, turn over.

A wonderful place full of history from the WWII.

Great location to spend half of a day You can take a nice walk in the garden You can pray in the church You can visit the museum It is an impressive location Totally recommend to visit it

Good museum to give background to the events during WW2 that occurred at the fortress. Some displays are in English, but you can easily get the idea about the artifacts and photographs which have not been translated. Do not miss the excellent museum shop downstairs. Very reasonable prices on some interesting souvenirs, from coins to old bullets.

I recommend to visit this place if you are fan of military and history of wars. Place is amazing and really really big! I also suggest to visit it with guide because you could hear really great story about everything inside. There is a lot of military and culture accents so remember that you are visitor and you are guest here :)

This is a magnificent park. It’s peaceful, beautiful, and wonderful. Even on a crowded day, it’s fairly easy to find some quiet space to yourself. The squirrels are beyond adorable so make sure you bring some delicious nuts for them.

A lovely getaway from the urban sprawl of Warsaw. Lordly peacocks 🦚 made my day. Squirrels 🐿️ run galore, so bring your little bag of nuts to partake in the feeding craze undertaken by old and young :) Love golden autumn colors 🍂 adding more splendor.

Lovely afternoon with fantastic weather today. Beautiful autumn leaves, few peacocks and cute squirrels. A lot of room for long walks, also plenty of benches to sit down and relax. One of the places you must see when visiting Warsaw, whatever the season.

A classic Warsaw landmark – loved by locals and tourists alike. Take a walk and check out the Sybil Temple, the Amphitheatre, the Old Orangery, and the peaceful Chinese Garden. Beautifully maintained and full of charm in every season. I was especially impressed by a colorful duck 🦆🍁

Łazienki Park is simply charming. It's a very beautiful, peaceful place, perfect for a relaxing stroll. Along the way, you can see various animals like squirrels, peacocks, and ducks, which make the experience even more enjoyable and fun. Perfect for those who want to connect with nature without leaving the city.

Amazing and massive park area. People handfeed the peacocks and red squirrels by the palace. I was shocked how friendly the animals are. One red squirrel came up to me and climbed on my leg thinking I have food. Back in the UK this is unimaginable as animals over there have to be wary of humans.

Incredible huge park with multiple old buildings and a vast network of trails and paths. Washrooms are easy to find comma and there is more seating/benches than any other Park I have seen. Be sure to find the peacocks that hang out near the education center

The Palace of Culture and Science is an interesting spot to visit in Warsaw. The building is huge and full of history, with good views from the top! It was pouring rain during our visit, but we were able to grab some coffee and icecream at the rooftop! There’s a mix of museums, theaters, and exhibitions inside—definitely worth checking out if you’re in the city.

Good place to visit when in Warsaw. We went inside to explore and took elevator to viewing platform on 30th floor. Tickets have to be purchased for that but they were not very expensive and viewing is amazing. Area surrounding the Palace and Culture and Science is also very nice. Plenty of places to sit and relax or go to get some food.

What a great view of the city! This magnificent sowiet style building offers the best views of the skyline of Warsaw into every direction. The biggest downside? You can't see this beautiful building. Come here at sunset to experience Warsaw at day, night and see a nice red sky. It's also very affordable and there is a nice coffee spot on top.

Soviet building but huge and fascinating. The most interesting building among all. Inside it has a lot if things but the panorama view on the 30th floor is breathtaking! I advise everyone to go there before the dawn, buy tickets in the self-service ticket machine (no need to book tickets in advance) in the hall and watch the beautiful city from the height, especially at night ✨✨✨ The building itself is gliwing with colir lights at night 👌✨

It is a very unique and monumental building. The history behind it is controversial, but they’ve managed to repurpose it to a cultural, scientific and historical end. It was nice to go up and have a 360 view of the city.

The must in Warsaw. Recommend to read a little bit about of the place before visit, to understand the history and the historical context. Visit the view point on 30th floor, for excellent panorama of Warsaw, walk around, visit open places inside.

We had a wonderful view from the viewing terrace. There is information about the surrounding buildings and neighbourhoods everywhere, which makes the view even more interesting. If you are in Warsaw, you should definitely visit this sight. A great experience

To begin, Warsaw's diverse collection of museums is a significant attraction, and this particular museum is one that I highly recommend visiting with an audio guide. The Uprising Museum and Uprising Monument are located in two separate locations. It's worth noting that admission to this museum is free on Thursdays. The Warsaw Rising Museum's purpose is to honor the memory of the Warsaw Uprising's participants and victims, document the history of the Polish Underground State, and recount the story of the city's 63-day resistance against Nazi occupation during WWII. The museum features extensive video evidence documenting the atrocities that occurred. The exhibition commences with a timeline of events and then proceeds to a room used to educate children. I was stunned. Additionally, I found that I was unprepared for some of the video evidence. Towards the end of the exhibition, there was a video marked 'drastic scenes.' I was unable to view it. I experienced a panic attack. I met a gentleman whose face was severely swollen. He cried throughout the entire exhibition. One aspect that I had not previously realized until viewing the videos is the significant pride displayed by those individuals perpetrating such brutality.

It's a really cool place, that's for sure, but if you want to actually spend time reading everything (and there is a LOAD to read), it's not really... accommodating. A load of sounds, very dark, many bright/contrasting lights. I walked in knowing nothing and fine and walked out still knowing nothing with a headache. But the layout is very visually interesting, and I bet the texts are very good, but I gave up on reading them after the first few 'stations' because I genuinely couldn't focus 🤷‍♂️

Very interesting museum , the history is Poland is outrage of neighbors at list 20 century is very rough. The museum is presenting a lot through Poland suffered and Warsaw too. Big respect for this country. They understood nobody truly will save them then their citizens. Repect and big love for Polish people.

Very good museum about the Warsaw Uprising; educational and really well made. The guides were professional and knowledgeable on the subject, as well as each of the partisans and insurgents stories really touched my heart. It’s amazing to see such bravery while being crushed under the weight of hostilities and brutal suppression.

Impressive, saddening, well/maintained and displayed. Words are not enough to tell about it. What an edge people live on, between the war and the peace. And even in 2025 this BS continues to ruin lives. I’d highly recommend that parents bring their children and let them experience the history in this screen-time madness era.

The remarkable, resilient people of Warsaw. God Bless Poland! 🇵🇱 And don't ever forget the brave children who helped underground. Bless their souls.

One of the best museums ive ever been to. Informative and graphic at points really hits home the struggles and efforts of the WP. There are also sporadic sections with the ghettos and impacts on the Jewish community. Kudos to the museum for innovative ways of hiding the more graphic imagery in little concrete Wells or high up in peep holes. 10/10

Incredible castle ruins on top of a hill, with panoramic views of the surrounding forests! I came here for the Percival concert (Witcher) and it was an amazing medieval ambience.

Amazing medieval castle with lots of history and additional attractions. Great place to visit for families with children. Plenty of places to eat and park. Highly recommended.

Real gem. The castle is extraordinary and really recommend to visit. If you want to go inside - be advised - it has steep stairs and one steep ladder to one of the towers. Also, nice walk around outside the castle.

The 16th century fortress in Jura region. On the holiday during summer season, the medieval knights show is held. That was good for kids.

When you first set sight on the castle, you'll immediately be impressed. You'll want to keep looking at it because it's just that beautiful. Then your attention is rerouted by the endless amount of people in yellow vests trying to get you to park in their parking lots. Some even wave glowsticks around. I can't blame the locals for wanting to earn a quick buck off tourists, but it was certainly a bit strange. Some of them even opened up their backyards for parking. We eventually entered a parking lot where we had to pay 5 EUR or 20 PLN, but I can imagine that the price varies per lot. We got out and headed towards the castle, but along the route there was a guy in an ice cream van saying something to us. Now, I don't speak Polish, but my limited knowledge of Czech has allowed me to understand a decent amount of what people are saying. This time, however, he said something that in Czech would translate to pigs, so I can imagine his confusion when I pulled a very confused face after his little sales talk. Anyways, we went further along the path before we were bombarded with stalls on either side of the road. Again, I can't blame locals for trying to earn some money, but I do have to wonder why 1 medieval castle should need around 5 ice cream vans, several stalls selling the same plushies and toys and multiple stalls selling food and drinks. One of them even sold toy machine guns, which is quite odd when you're visiting a medieval castle, where the best gun you were gonna get would only fire a single shot and most likely miss the target, if not blow up into your face. Anyways, we finally got to the ticket office, where there was a small queue but nothing too bad. We went up into the castle area and this was absolutely beautiful. The castle itself had a few shops, but the main event was ofcourse the castle itself. The route was clearly indicated, and took you along almost every inch of the castle. The stairs up to the tower were a bit crowded, but nothing you can really do about that. There were a few little rooms that showcased stuff, including a room dedicated to the Witcher with a very nice replica of his silver sword, if I'm correct in that. In another room there was a canon from the 1700's, which seemed to me to be able to still fire, but I wouldn't recommend firing such an old weapon, lest it blow up in your face. The castle itself is located on a rocky area, which the castle accentuates brilliantly. Even though the castle isn't that large, it seems like it is due to the terrain. Some parts of the castle were lost unfortunately, I would have liked to see a restored version of this castle, I reckon it would have been beautiful if done right. Right now, you can see they "restored" certain small areas with bricks, which I don't think is very historically accurate but I could be wrong in that. A lot of the stairs in the castle have been replaced with concrete or metal ones, which is fair seeing the horrible state of the one staircase they kept in place. When leaving the main castle, the larger area still surrounded by walls is also something you should look at. It features a beautiful rock formation and an old torture chamber. I would take the things on display there with a grain of salt though, seeing there's an iron maiden in this room which they tried to pass off as historically accurate, even though it was only invented in the victorian age, much later than the medieval era. Still, I'm no expert in medieval torture methods so maybe the rest all checks out. When we eventually left the castle, the queue for tickets was way longer. It seemed we had evaded the busy hours, fortunately. Also, before I forget, dogs are allowed to enter the castle, so bring them along if you want. In conclusion, I would definitely recommend you to visit this wonderful place, but it definitely gets one fewer star because of the exceptionally touristy area centered around it.

I was expecting little because it all looks in ruins (in pictures) but once you are there physically you'll be amazed. Also, The Witcher (Netflix) filmed here.

Beautiful place. Felt like I walked into history with the festival vibes around.

A heathen here. A pretty magnificent church. Our tour uses a local tour guide who takes us through the church while the Mass is in progress. He's also very thorough with the small museum. The church is dedicated to Black Madonna (the Virgin Mary), mother of Jesus. Reportedly, she possessed extraordinary power.

I love this place a lot. As soon as you walk through the gates it feels like you enter a little village on its own!!! It's a really peaceful and sacred place. I can only recommend ^^

Gorgeous buildings and surroundings. We were lucky enough to be there while mass was on. The sound of singing fills the place with reverie. There are multiple areas of the compound that are well worth a visit.

Wonderful shrine, a must-see while around Krakow. The icone of our Lady, the beautiful church, a very interesting treasury and museum, and breathtaking view at the top of the tower, all these make this place a magical one.

A beautiful and spiritual place with incredible history. The monastery is impressive, peaceful, and filled with meaning. A must-visit when in Częstochowa.

This is considered to be a sacred place with a miracle-making icon. This historical place is visited by the Pope, too. The architecture with inside decoration of the churches is beautiful! The entrance is free. There is a large parking behind the cathedral complex. Many pilgrims come here every year.

....one of the best we visited!! No problem with parking (free), ticket machines (no need to wait in queue)...

There are a variety of wild animals to see here. The enclosures are very large and offer the animals plenty of activities and space. A very nice family zoo, the seals have plenty of action! A really nice zoo!

amazing zoo no comments... . beautiful fish tanks, food service inside for kids & adults. need minimum 3 hours for visiting

Very nice, not very big ZOO. We saw couple feedings and trainings. Parking close by for fee, the one across the bridge is free.

This zoo is beautiful and big. There is English posting for names and much information in Polish that can be translated with Lens. The ice cream was delicious and very clean place. We spent over two hours and could have spent even more time there. I think we walked nearly 10km during the visit. It is one of my favorites

Even better zoo than I imagined. You can see the animals really close. It's really modern, clean, and has beautiful waterfalls and an overall vibe. We went on a rainy day, so there were almost no other visitors besides me and my girlfriend, which made it feel like a private tour. We were there for at least 2.5 hours and still didn't see everything that the zoo had to offer.

Really good experience, can’t complain really! Though it was sometimes hard to view the animals as the cage was very large compared to the number of animals with an outdoor and indoor section. Apart from that wear some good shoes as you’ll be walking for ages.

I visited Wrocław Zoo on two separate occasions in September 2025 in order to make the most of my time in the city and the weather. I visit zoos across the world in order to photograph their animals, and would consider the one in Wrocław among the best. The zoo is well laid out, with many indoor houses and outdoor enclosures for species across the animal kingdom. The houses that most impressed me were the Terrarium (for reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates) and the Afrykarium for African fauna. The Terrarium is laid out over two floors (unfortunately not accessible to wheelchairs) and contains around 100 exhibits for animals ranging from tiny insects to crocodiles and giant tortoises. All of these are appropriate in size and conditions for their inhabitants. Many of the animals here can only be seen here in Europe, including some tiny colourful geckos from the Indian Ocean. I spent several hours in here on my two visits, photographing all the animals I could see. The Afrykarium takes you on a journey through the continent and its waters. The only deviation from this theme was to replace the rare African manatees with their slightly more common Caribbean relative, of which I could see five individuals swimming in their tank. Other inhabitants include penguins, fur seals, sharks, hippopotamus, aardvarks, and elephant shrews. The building is accessible to wheelchairs with a few elevators, but one was out of service on my visit. Other notable exhibits include the bird house, with its many rare species, Pallas’s cats, and olive baboons. Overall I recommend a visit to anyone interested in birds, endangered species, unusual reptiles, or just animals in general.

I absolutely loved my visit to the Wrocław Zoo! It’s one of the most beautiful and well-organized zoos I’ve ever been to. The animals look healthy and well cared for, and the enclosures are clean and spacious. The Afrykarium is a must-see — it feels like stepping into another world! 🐠🐧 There are plenty of places to relax, grab a snack, and enjoy the atmosphere. Perfect for families, couples, or just a peaceful walk surrounded by nature and animals. Highly recommend visiting! 🌿🐘🦓

Truly amazing experience! The Wrocław Zoo is much bigger than I expected and incredibly well kept. You can really see that the animals are healthy, well fed, and properly cared for — everything feels very natural and clean. There are so many different species to see, and the Afrykarium is just breathtaking! The only small downside is that not every section has English translations, but honestly, it didn’t stop us from enjoying it at all. It’s a wonderful place for both kids and adults — definitely one of the best zoos I’ve ever visited. Highly recommended!

Great value for ticket cost, 176zł (£36.05 for x2 ticket, £18 per person). So many animals, a lot to see, indoor aquarium was amazing and tunnel under the sharks and rays was a highlight. Hot dogs from cafe at beginning were great, little expensive compared to other places (48zł for x2 hot dogs, x1 cola, x1 water, £8.82. Each hot dog at 12zł (£2.45) compared to 8.99zł (£1.84) for hot dogs and cola bottle elsewhere). Gift shop closed hour before zoo closed so missed out on getting any items from there sadly

Absolutely stunning—easily one of the best zoos I’ve ever been to, and I’ve seen quite a few. Massive grounds, an incredible variety of animals, and more than enough to fill an entire day. A definite must-visit if you’re in Wroclaw.

Great ZOO with quite a long history! I'd especially recommend pavilon with manatees (there is not very many places to see those in Europe) and very nice terrarium. There is an underground parking nearby, so you can leave your dog in the car without worries even if it's hot outside. Very worth visiting once you are in Wroclaw!

An incredible zoo with lots to see including an aquarium. The zoo covers a huge area and it’s really enjoyable to explore the grounds and buildings on site. Highly recommend a visit and would suggest half a day to explore as a minimum.

A lovely lake. It’s a 5.6km loop we ran around and a great way to see it! There’s a lot going on; mini golf, ski slope, acarde, thermal baths etc. Great visit and would recommend a few hours here

A beautiful lake, especially for taking pict.. hehe the area is quite busy..A suitable area for relaxing, jogging,Read a book Or even just to enjoy the fresh air. There are several restaurants near the lake... so you don't need to worry if you're hungry 😁

It has the wow effect. Lovely man made lake for rowing competition. Lots of activity on either side of the lake. One side, artificial ski slope and the other side- water park/ slide. There are also ‘beach’ type place where you can play beach volleyball and football. Not for swimming or u can swim but at your own peril…….

Great place for jogging , cycling, walking you pets or just simply outdoor walking . One of the biggest Man made lakes in Poznan. The water sport competitions are kept here. The area of the biggest Malta mall, Ski resort , and The Poznan Zoo. In winter they let it dry out , for cleaning purpose i guess.

A great location to walk. Very long, clean, and maintained path. Road noise is not too loud and is not audible in most.locations. Frequent benches and resting spots. Some eateries close by.

Very nice place. Best for people who love to have ME time too. Peaceful place. Cycling and runners is a must go.

Nice place to have a walk and relax. On the shore of the lake you can find benches where you can rest and bronze statues with local cultural themes

Super cool experience. Very well explained, more interested Always in medieval stories that WW1/2 but has best of both worlds. The building inside and out is stunning.

Zamek Książ is one of the tourist attractions that you must visit if you are nearby. The third largest castle in Poland has an interesting history and the castle tour will delight you. You can spend a whole day here without getting bored.

We walked in the summer, but wanted to see this castle last winter, which might be a bit problem as the path may have been a bit slippery. It's a nice circuit along the river, quite uphill, from St Anne's church, (ruins) through the old castle to the new chateau , which is beautiful and the park maintained, free to enter. The place is photogenic and on the way there you can stop at the viewpoint. However, choose the right part of the day not to have the sun directly to your eyes.

Unbelievable castle! Very huge with an extended park. Tha castle itself is nicely decorated and furnished. You can feel the atmosphere of the past. By official suggestion you need 2.5 hours to go round but we did it shorter because we didn't have too much time. We went on the underground tour as well which is very interesting. It was part of the Rise Project of nazi Germany. A sharp contrast with the peaceful world of the castle!! You have to climb a lot of stairs!! Be careful. But it is worth!

Tickets cost around 60pln for visit a castle. The whole tour takes around 1h. The castle is really good renovated and has a lot to see. Parking cost us 30pln . With the ticket you have also entrance to the garden. I did not have to wait to visit this place

It was an interesting visit, but there were some organizational issues. Ksiaz Castle is definitely worth a visit. The self-guided tour of the interior is interesting and informative. Seeing the original furniture and décor from different historical periods was fascinating and really helped us imagine life in those times. The castle is large, and the tour takes about one to two hours, depending on your pace. You can explore at your own pace, which is a big plus. After finishing the tour of the interior, you can access the gardens, where you can walk around, relax, and even grab a bite to eat at the café. Note that prices are on the expensive side. Unfortunately, I had an unpleasant experience with the security staff. Due to the large number of visitors, it was difficult to stop and take photos, so I wanted to walk back and capture some shots I had missed. However, I was told that going against the flow is not allowed, even though I saw someone else (not a staff member) doing so freely. It felt inconsistent and frustrating. Make sure not to skip the underground section of the tour. It provides fascinating insight into the castle’s role during WWII. It's quite cold underground, so bring a warm layer. Plan to spend about 40 minutes down there. Overall: It's a beautiful, historic place worth visiting, but be prepared for some crowd-related limitations during peak times.

Better to come earlier to prevent huge queue for the tickets. Use terminals to the left from tickets office (same enter as tickets office), they were totally free. Great and clean place inside and outside. P.s. if you want to enjoy coffee after visiting castle - better stay in cafe inside (NOT on terrace), because they have huge queue and bad coffee quality. So buy inside whatever you want (as take away) and enjoy terrace view.

It's a very historically important church. It's a wooden church with beautiful exterior architecture. There's a small cemetery surrounding the church. While many churches in Poland are free to enter, this one costs 14 zł, with an additional 5 zł if you have a camera. I didn't go in because there were large groups of people inside.

Worth to see, very nice little wooden church with beautiful well maintained grounds. Ticket is cheap and you can spend there as much time as you want. To there there you can leave your car on paid parking and take a walk. Some little shops and coffee places around. View is spectacular

A small wooden Viking-style church surrounded by a small old cemetery. The steep trip up will reward you with breathtaking views. What I don’t accept personally is paying an entrance fee to a church!

Karpacz and Wang Church are kinda places you should visit before die! I had visit there by my bike 🚲, saw amazing nature and had an amazing experience.

If you want to see an original Norwegian Stave Church without travelling North, that is the solution. The history behind is even more interesting. Definitely worth visiting.

Such a beautiful building in beautiful surroundings. Well worth the trip. A printed sheet of the narrative is available in different languages. Very popular attraction

A unique 12th-century wooden church originally built in Norway and relocated to Karpacz in the 19th century. Surrounded by the stunning Karkonosze mountains, Wang Church blends Viking architecture with Christian symbolism. A peaceful place for reflection, history, and beautiful views — a must-see when visiting Karpacz.

The castle was absolutely magical! 🏰✨ Surrounded by peaceful forests and a lovely lake, the whole area feels like a dream. 🌳🌊 It’s so calm and serene — perfect for a quiet escape into nature. If it’s your first time visiting a castle, get ready for a real-life fairy tale moment! 😍 The view of the castle is simply breathtaking — like something straight out of a storybook. 📖💫 I couldn’t stop smiling the entire time! Truly a place that fills your heart with wonder. 💖 Highly recommend for anyone looking to experience a little enchantment!

I’m leaving my opinion with regards to the visit to the castle, not the hotel. Unfortunately the trip went bad. We have a 2 years old daughter and my wife is 7 months pregnant. Usually this is not an issue and we are used to travel quite a lot, our daughter as well. We visit castles, museums etc. When a visit involves going down or up a very narrow tower or suffocating space, the guide informs visitors in advance. Well, not here. The group was quite numerous for those spaces and at the end of the tour, we were invited to visit the cellars but, little did we know that this involved going down a very very claustrophobic space. So my wife had to go back almost fainting and my little daughter didn’t handle that and I had to follow my wife. Of course with ZERO help from the guide or other visitors. That was just..bad. Overall the experience as a human was negative.

As a foreigner non polish speaking person the experience was mediocre at best. We were told that we could not see the castle unless we joined a tour. They only offered polish speaking tours apparently. The guide seemed mad at us for being there. Very poorly serviceminded. The castle it self was beautiful. But would it recommend for non polish speakers.

The promotional materials claim that the castle looks like something out of Harry Potter… well, that’s quite an exaggeration. I get that they need to attract tourists somehow, but the PR team really let their imagination run wild here. Take that description with about 2% truth—maybe even less. But the surroundings, especially in autumn, are truly beautiful.

Fantastic place to visit with great history. As a hotel I would say it mid-range, with simple breakfast and small car park. But the surroundings makes up for that. And quite expensive to be honest.

It’s true that the castle and its grounds are spectacular — perched above the river with rose gardens and fountains, with its old walls and ramparts intact. The hotel, on the other hand, is a letdown. First, hotel parking was not free nor was it close to the castle. Written info on the castle is not available in English (confusing, as some signage inside is in English). There is no seating in the lobby, which is OK only when weather is nice. The vast majority of the castle is not accessible, nor was a tour offered when I checked in. There are amenities listed online and in their brochure that do not exist (e.g. a sauna and spa facilities). Wifi was spotty and at times did not work at all. think it’s a shame that one of Europe’s most spectacular castle hotels is, as it turns out, not very nice at all.

I was expecting more, at least something like Książ. Unfortunately, the group was quite big and noisy and at times it was hard to hear the guide. The castle itself is just average, not more than that. The ticket price is 10 euros for an adult, which is 5 times more expensive than in some Spanish castles. I wouldn't go there again and wouldn't recommend it to my friends either.

Nice beach

(Translated by Google) The most beautiful beach in Poland. Wide, clean, fine sand, with occasional food and drink stations. Everyone will find a place for themselves. Please note that renting baskets costs a lot! (Original) Najpiękniejsza plaża w Polsce. Szeroka, czysty, drobniutki piasek, od czasu do czasu stanowiska z jedzeniem i piciem. Każdy znajdzie miejsce dla siebie. Uwaga, bardzo dużo kosztuje wypożyczenie koszy!

(Translated by Google) It is very pleasant to walk along the promenade, the view of the sea is wonderful (Original) Bardzo przyjemnie spaceruje się promenadą, widok na morze jest cudny

(Translated by Google) A clean, beautiful and perfectly designed with lots of comfortable benches, water features, restaurants, shops and leisure facilities. Well-designed and separated cycle and footpaths lead all the way across the border to Germany...Ideal for families with children as it is almost car-free...always worth a visit... (Original) Eine saubere, schöne und perfekt gestaltete mit viele bequemen Sitzbänken, Wasserspielen, Restaurants, Geschäften und Freizeiteinrichtungen. Gut angelegte und getrennte Rad- und Fußwege führen bis nach Deutschland über die Grenze....Ideal für Familien mit Kindern, da fast Autofrei.....immer ein Besuch wert....

(Translated by Google) The beach is very beautiful and well maintained and very spacious. It's great to stop off or take long walks (Original) Der Strand ist sehr schön und gepflegt und sehr weitläufig. Man kann super einkehren oder lange Spaziergänge machen

(Translated by Google) A beautiful promenade with a separate lane for pedestrians and cyclists. I recommend (Original) Piękna promenada z wydzielonym pasem dla pieszych i rowerzystów. Polecam

(Translated by Google) Beautiful walks on the beach are possible here. There are many types of refreshment stops that promise and deliver refreshment during breaks. We will come again :-) Karin and Thomas children (Original) Wunderschöne Spaziergänge am Strand sind hier möglich. Einkehrmöglichichkeiten vieler Art gibt es, die Stärkung in den Pausen versprechen und halten. Wir werden wieder kommen :-) Karin und Thomas Kinder

The greenhouses are stunning! It's curated into geographical regions. There's rainforest and desert sections and it's very easy to walk through. The outdoor area is also really beautifully designed. Plenty of spaces to sit and have a picnic. You can lay on the grass in some areas too. They have a cafe and bar area so you can get snacks and drinks. The garden is huge too, so you can easily spend half a day here. Amazing.

You could spend a whole day here! It is absolutely gorgeous and so peaceful. I always try to go to a botanical garden when I travel. I spent about 4 hours here strolling the grounds and greenhouses. My favorite area was the pond with all the lily pads and chatty frogs. I highly recommend visiting if you have the time.

Botanical Garden & Museum Berlin – A Deep Breath of Nature This garden is more than a green space — it’s a living story of the earth. Each path and greenhouse reveals a new layer of nature’s beauty. From giant palm trees and alpine flowers to rare medicinal herbs, the diversity is stunning. The tropical greenhouses are a true escape, especially in winter, filled with orchids, ferns, and plants from across the globe. The museum adds context with fascinating exhibitions on plant life, culture, and evolution. Whether you’re a botanist, photographer, or just looking for peace, this place is worth every visit.

Very nice botanical garden. They're more focused on displaying regions and their plant life, than on "look, this is a pretty garden". They for example recreated the Alps on a scale of 1:10,000. Nevertheless, they do have some very pretty areas.

Mesmerizingly beautiful and lush, Berlin Botanical Garden and Botanical Museum is one of Berlin's somewhat underrated gems. Admission is very reasonable, with children under 14 getting in for free and adult tickets being at 10 euros. An absolute highlight of our visit was an elegant and curious red fox 🦊that kept reappearing. As if we got a bonus admission to a zoo🤪 Fun memories to behold!

Berlin is a beautiful city, but it can be a little bleak with the history, but this amazing botanical garden and greenhouse complex erases the bad mojo. Definitely the highlight of my few days in Berlin. Should not be missed if you come here, whatever the season.

Lovely place overall. You can walk around for several hours. Very big area. There's a lot of to see. Easy to find also toilets and it's very clean.

GeoCenter Møns Klint is a nice educational centre focusing on the Møns Klint area, it hosts exhibitions and activities. Onsite there are play areas, washrooms, cafeteria and gift shop.

It was a great hike (Tour 5) that we did. I really like the rugged and wild coast there. You should plan on spending half a day there, but more is fine too. From the seaside it is also amazing, tours are starting from Klintholm Havn

No wonder it has became a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Stunning natural wonder, with a Museum and activities that allows you to understand the factors behind this wonder. We also did the Tour 5, with two kids, 6 and 8. Smaller kids could also do it, bit forget about Strollers.

Beautiful, scenery and the beach, the stairs. Geo museums, and souvenir shops… nice to chill on the outdoor cafe.

Lovely place. Very good hike with friends we had. Easy/Medium track

I can highly recommend the Geocenter. In combination with a walk/hike at the cliffs, a very exiting and diverse day. The museum is very interactive, interesting and family friendly. When you are interested a bit in geology and nature, you will like it. Parking is 6 Euro per day, the entrance is a bit expensive but worth it.

One of the most visited sites in Denmark - for a reason. A great geological site to bring your kids for an exiting hike and experience. Look for fossils on the beach or awe the 70 million year old limestone cliffs raise from the sea.

Knuthenborg Safaripark is located in a lush area near the town of Maribo in Denmark and is considered one of the largest safari parks in Northern Europe. In this park, visitors can drive their own vehicles along designated routes through open and natural landscapes, getting up close to wild animals such as giraffes, tigers, rhinos, Arctic wolves, and many more. The natural and open setting allows animals to live in an environment similar to their native habitats, offering visitors a more authentic and immersive wildlife experience. In addition to the safari section, the park offers a variety of attractions for families, including a large playground, forest walking trails, and educational exhibits about the environment and animals. There are also accommodations within the park, allowing guests to stay overnight surrounded by nature and enjoy a unique and memorable experience. The park is designed to provide a peaceful and pleasant environment for both day trips and extended stays.

Would have rated it with more stars but the new experience of seeing tigers and lions is not good. There is very less chance of seeing those animals. Not from the bridge nor from the panoramic window. The good parts are the dinosaur forest experience and the 2 roller coasters for the thrill.

Hopefully this review can help the park make some improvements. The plus side is that you are able to get quite close to the animals and see savanna wildlife in a beautiful setting. The down sides are worth keeping in mind should you plan a family trip there. We stayed there overnight for a quite substantial amount of money for 2 adults and one 7 year old - approx 900 euros. Barely any staff available in the park. Poor directions and signage to drive around. Would be helpful to get a recommended order for the visit. And more info on the animals. In the tent, you are expected to wash, dry and put away your dishes with the threat of a 60 euro fine should you miss doing that. Empty your trash. Put on and take away your bed linen just to mention a few things that you would expect to be included when paying that much for 1 night. The food we ordered to prepare in the tent was bland. Compared to skanes djurpark in Sweden I would say you get much less for your money. I wrote a review for that too so anyone can check it out. It’s a pity because it’s such a beautiful sanctuary.

We’ve been to the park a few times and it never lets us down. The park is massive and there’s lots to see and discover. You can bring your own food or eat at the various points in the park dedicated to it, apart from the animals that stroll freely on huge terrains there’s also a big kiddy’s park at the bottom that if you go at the designated hours there’s a small rollercoaster and the water log ride included in the entrance price( that if you buy it online you save 30% off the price ) . Very recommended.

Great place. Kind and service minded staff. We rented a cabin for 4 days. Bring food whit you, if you rent a cabin. There are many picknic tables around the park. So you can bring food whit you on a daily trip also. If you rent a cabin gate close at 17:00 and you can't drive in or out. But you can walk around the park and some hours drive around. Great place for family. We was here in end of season.(October) a little cold, but it's was okey.

It’s a like in the wild experience. It’s really a big park so you’ll need to have your car to go around and see the animals, there are also places you can walk to see other animals. Better start the tour in the morning if you’re planning for just a day trip but they also offer accommodation for families. There’s also different activities for kids. 🫶🏻💕

Absolutely fantastic experience. The animals roam free and there are plenty to see. For me the highlight was the dinosaur museum! With a collection of real bones from the biggest dinosaurs, you get to feel small next to these huge creatures. Would highly recommend. And remember to buy tickets online
