My Cosy Stay at the Event Hostel in Opole

There are a huge number of cities in Poland that are still unventured and unpopular for tourists, yet they should be. Many of these towns and cities are regional capitals such as Zielona Góra (Lubuskie), Rzeszów (Podkarpackie), Starogard Gdański (Kociewie) and Olsztyn (Masury). Another sparklìng gem is Opole, which is also the capital city of Opole Vovoideship. I made a habit of backpacking through obscure global towns and cities back in the day. These days, I converted the niche to Poland only, in the wake of deep depression.

  • Really like how you make publicity for less visited and underrated places in Poland, like Opole and others. If ever you go back to that part of Poland go see Nysa it lays to the south of Opole.

    • Hi Pol, thanks for the comment. I am glad you liked it. It is a shame we couldn’t meet when I was in Opole. Next time you are in Poland, give me an advance morning as I move about a lot within the country. Safe travels. Jonny
