From the station you should go to the central square of Wroclaw, which is one of the largest in Europe. In the center of the square stands a real jewel of Gothic art &#8211; <em>the City Hall<\/em>. You will see all the beauty of Wroclaw if you climb to the last floor. The entrance to the city hall costs 15 z\u0142.

This is the main church in town, and its height reaches up to 87 meters. Wroclaw can be viewed perfectly from such height. The entrance to the church costs 5 z\u0142. The church is opened every day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Everyone will find something interesting for himself in Wroclaw. There are some addresses of different museums of Wroclaw. There are quite a lot of them, and a variety of them is amazing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><em>Wroclaw National Museum<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Address: plac Powsta\u0144c\u00f3w Warszaw<\/em><em>\u0443<\/em><em> 5<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>\u0422\u0435<\/em><em>l<\/em><em>: <\/em><em>71 343 56 43<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Pictures of Jan Matejko and Jacek Malczewski deserve special attention in the National Museum. Another thing is <em>the\u00a0Rac\u0142awice Panorama.<\/em> Its length is 120 m and height is 5 m &#8211; one of the largest in Poland. Panorama reproduces Rac\u0142awice battle, in which Poles commanded by Tadeusz Kosciuszko defeated the king&#8217;s army. This work of art was transported from Lviv to Wroclaw in 1946. Only 39 years later, the authorities allowed to demonstrate it to the visitors. The ticket costs 15 z\u0142 and this place is absolutely incredible.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><em>The Post and Telecommunication Museum<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em>Address: ul.

The Garden was created in the beginning of the 20th century, on the occasion of the Global Exhibition in 1913. The idea of renewing the Garden appeared in the 90s. The reconstruction lasted three years, the specialists from Japan came to assist, but the Garden did not survived for long. It was destroyed by the flood and \u00a070% of the plants were lost. The next opening of the Japanese garden took place in October 1999. The garden is opened to the public from the 1st April to 31st October. The cost of the full ticket is 4z\u0142, the discount ticket costs 2z\u0142.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Japanese Garden is located on <em>ul.

It is also the largest zoo in Poland. Wroclaw Zoo is the most visited zoo in Poland and the fifth most visited zoo in Europe.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So, let\u2019s continue our walk on <em>Ostr\u00f3w Tumski<\/em><em>\u00a0<\/em><em>or &#8220;Cathedral Island&#8221;<\/em>.
