If you want to break away from your work and
the daily routine you have to visit Lublin!
In Lublin there is always something that can
surprise you. It is like that because it is a student’s city.
You can find there four types of Universities
including very famous Catholic University of Lublin where Jan Paul II has
studied. There is a lot of different organizations in which students
develop their passion and interests. But the most impressing is that amazing
atmosphere of the city. Even if there is a lot of people and as it used to be
in the big cities everyone is in a hurry but in Lublin you won’t notice that. Every
day you can take part in various set of events. In 2016 the city of Lublin was
one of the candidates for the tile of the European Capital of Culture.
The most popular event in the city is Arts’
master festival (“Festiwal Sztukmistrzów” in polish language) which takes place
in June. In May the inhabitants participate in the event which is called “Days
of student’s culture”. During that event there is a lot of one man shows and
concerts of the most popular groups in Poland and the foreign artists. What’s
more all those concerts are for free!!
But Lublin it’s not just concerts and cultural
events, you can also sink into the vivid landscape of the city by visiting an old
Town square in which there is a huge castle with a courtyard. If you want to
take a rest from the noise of the city you can go to the Saxon’s garden in
which you can sit by the fountain, admiring the real nature and the most
amazing animals such as peacocks.
If you want to see how the people were living
in the in the eighteenth century you can go to the Museum of Lublin’s village
(“Muzeum wsi Lubelskiej” in polish language) which is one of the biggest open
air museum in Poland! Recently this museum has turned into a background for the
folk music video clips.
The authorities of the city are trying
permanently to create new cultural centers such as “Centrum spotkania kultur”
which was opened in 2016 and now you can see there opera concerts, exhibitions,
and spectacles with famous actors.
This is just a small part of things which
I could tell you about Lublin, but I let you discover it on your own so you
could have your own unforgettable memories.
Enjoy your stay in Lublin!
