POLAND – Not the Europe You Expect 🇵🇱

Travel Documentary, Poland 2025. 🇵🇱 POLAND IS NO ORDINARY COUNTRY. Join us as we uncover why it’s not just an incredible tourist destination, but a FORCE shaping Europe’s future — a country that truly deserves your ADMIRATION and ATTENTION. Let’s explore why together! With 38 million people and shared borders with Ukraine, Belarus, and Russia, Poland stands as Europe’s eastern bulwark against Putin’s ambitions. Join us on a captivating 6-day road trip through this fascinating nation — from the vibrant capital Warsaw to the authentic charm of Łódź, the UNESCO-listed splendor of Krakow, and the hidden gems of lesser-known eastern border towns like Białystok and Lublin. From Poland’s Soviet-era shadows and apartment blocks to its charming villages, from its Jewish history to its modern future, and from its aggressive military buildup — where teenagers even learn how to handle firearms in school — to its warm hospitality and hearty pierogi (Polish food), this journey will change everything you thought you knew about Poland. Poland isn’t just an amazing tourist destination, it’s a country rising as a force in Europe. Hosting over 10,000 U.S. troops and investing billions in its military, Poland is determined to protect its sovereignty and may just hold the key to Europe’s destiny. Invaded by Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union during World War II, Poland endured brutal occupations. After the war, the Soviet Union imposed a communist regime that ruled until 1989, when Poland’s peaceful transformation spurred democratic change across Central and Eastern Europe. Today, as a proud member of NATO and the EU, Poland stands at the crossroads of East and West. With seven neighbors — Germany, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Lithuania, Belarus, Ukraine, and Russian Kaliningrad — Poland’s critical geopolitical position as well as its rapid economic growth have made it indispensable to Europe’s future. Yet, it often remains under-appreciated. Discover the Poland you never knew — a country full of beauty and importance, both for travelers and the world! 00:00 Intro 01:45 Łódź (Soviet Apartment & City Tour) 05:14 Warsaw (First Impressions) 05:40 Life in Soviet-Block (Bloki) 07:42 Financial District (Palace of Culture & Science) 09:20 Tram Ride & Charles de Gaulle 10:29 Tasting Pączki (Nowy Świat Street) 11:46 Old Town (Copernicus & Holy Cross Church & Alkohole) 14:14 Poland's Military (Józef Piłsudski, Tomb of Unknown Soldier) 16:22 Krakowskie Przedmieście (Hotels, Presidential Palace) 16:52 Ukrainians & Royal Castle Old Town 18:03 Wedel Chocolate House 18:26 Market Square & Mermaid Statue 19:09 Polish Food (Pierogi & Vodka) 20:43 New Town (Warsaw Uprising & Ghetto Heroes) 21:38 Umschlagplatz 22:28 Tram Ride 23:30 Local Life (Praga District & Różycki Bazaar) 25:36 Drive to Białystok (Belarus Border) 26:49 Białystok Apartment 27:43 Podlachian Food (Cepeliny) 28:30 Church 30:03 Local Market 31:05 Coffee & Branicki Palace 31:53 Villages (Drive to Lublin near Ukraine) 33:05 Lublin (First Impressions) 34:01 Jewish Dinner 35:22 Ukrainian Choir 36:08 Apartment 36:48 Lublin City 38:07 Majdanek Concentration Camp 39:44 Krakow (First Impressions) 40:24 Local Restaurant 41:04 Ukrainian Protest 42:34 Oskar Schindler's Factory 43:22 Krakow Ghetto Heroes 44:05 Tasting Obwarzanki 44:44 Market Square & St. Mary's Basilica 45:52 Poverty in Poland 46:56 Conclusion & Drone Wawel Castle 48:56 Extra Outtakes What are your thoughts on Poland and this video?

We're Nicole from Austria/Germany and Roberto from Switzerland/Italy. We believe that traveling is more than just sightseeing! When we travel, we look for spontaneous and AUTHENTIC ENCOUNTERS with the LOCAL LIFE (and people of all backgrounds) in other cultures, the country (nature, villages, cities) and the food. Our travels are about uncovering the REAL & UNSCRIPTED LIFE in each destination, with all its sunny & shady sides!
