Christmas Market in Wrocław is ranked among the 10 best Christmas markets in Europe. It was also the place where we have decided to go at the end of the passing year 2024.

Before it started getting dark we went to the Hydropolis – the “water museum”. We saw the models of fish living in the deepest depths of the oceans and models of ships from different centuries and we listened to our guide telling us about the water, how it is important for us and what is our influence on the waters on Earth. After visiting the museum we went to the La Barometre restaurant for a dinner. The restaurant is on the Wrocław market square so we could look at the darkness falling on the Christmas Market while we ate, got to know each other, and shared our stories and experiences. Afterwards we sightsaw the Christmas Market and the neighbouring streets of the beautiful, city of Wrocław bustling with crowds of happy people awaiting Christmas. We went back to Katowice in the Christmas mood.
