I see your comments guys saying how old the video is 😅 really sorry, ill pick a more recent one next time !
It was older movie. Warsaw and Cracow look different now. You need to find another video, because every year Poland looks different. So fast it is growing and changing ;) Believe me :) This is not like Paris 20 years ago and today the same city... In Poland one develope year it is like 20 develope France or Germany years. Every year in Poland is different.
Wow Conor couldn't you pick something more recent? This video is so out of date! Poland has changed immensely and is basically unrecognisable, especially Warsaw.
That is an old video, looks like 20-30 years ago, nowadays Warsaw, Krakow and polish villages look much more modern (of course monuments look still the same). You can see it here in all these old cars and the way people look like
I live in Poland. This video is soooo old. Everything has changed since then.
What a retro Poland! 😅
Funny to watch!
This film must be over 15-20 years old, because Warsaw looks COMPLETELY DIFFERENT now
in a good or bad way ?
@@zorglub20770 much better - ruclips.net/video/G3y_wbpJgIA/видео.html
@@zorglub20770 In a good way. Better roads with better traffic lights, city ring express ways that bypass heavy traffic around the city, more trams and busses with modern glass bus stops with electronic displays timing incoming bus arrivals, modern subway system, like a dozen of skyscrapers in the business district instead of just one, plenty of malls, a lot more modern apartment complexes instead of those old soviet era residential blocks. 20 years of progress. A lot has changed, for the better. This video was made right before or right after we joined the EU (2004). That's when all the heavy investments started when Poland entered global market.

I'm in a rented flat in Gdansk, Poland and found this. I've done Warsaw and it's an exciting and historic city. The museums in Poland are all excellent. Having holidayed in Warsaw because my wife wanted to go to a concert we becamce hooked on Poland. Other pleasant areas of Poland include Wrocslaw and Gdansk. I've now been back to Gdanks five times - Just a fantastic city rebuilt in the Hanseatic style after being flattened by the RAF and the USAAF in WW2. The Baltic beaches a short bus/train ride away. Love the city. Going back to the UK at the end of the week and already planning another visit next year and will move on to see Bydgosczc and Thorun after talking with a Polish police officer in a pub last night (he comes from there and waxes lyrical about it - so they're both on the must see list now.
Thanks for an interesting tour of Krakow. I enjoyed watching your video. 🇵🇱 Poland is my favourite destination. I love Polish traditions, customs, cusine, and many more.
The speaker refers in his video to Nazis. In my opinion, he should have been more accurate and specific. Nazis weren't aliens from the outer space. These people were simply Germans. It has to be clearly stated. Nazism is a legacy of the present day Germany. Don't get me wrong. I don't want to be misunderstood, either. In regards to historical facts, there is a need to be very precise. Nazis in a large majority were people of German origin. This is the fact.
* many more = much more
you are a good man, thank you for your reaction.❤
I hope one day you'll have a chance to visit Poland.
Been to Poland, flew into modlin, visited warsaw, loved it, would definitely go back-went for my cousins wedding (they're divorced but he still lives there), beautiful place. Forget Russia, for vodka go to Poland 😂😂
Such an old video! Poland is developing in such a dynamic way that these places no longer look like that
This is a very old video, Poland has changed so much that this video can serve as a reference point to appreciate how quickly and how much change has occurred.
This must be a really old video. Haven't seen Opel Astra as a taxi for more than a decade. Also Warsaw skyline is missing most of it's present skyscrapers.
Love Krakow. My favourite place for a long weekend away, from England.
Visiting Krakow in May and looking forward to it so much.
Birkenau is the other part of Aushwitz. In fact I’m surprised because he supposed use full name that is Aushwitz- Birkenau. There is also other subcamp: Aushwitz III - Monowitz. And it’s not Eastern Europe- it’s Central!
Hi there ,
Warsaw now looks different i mean very modern . this is old video because I see old cars etc. but ok
Big👍
✌️🤠
The peacock surprised me too, because it was perched on a high place. I always saw them on the ground.
Quick Polish Pronunciation Guide!
1. Every time there is a Z letter inside of the word, just change it to H
CZ? Nah change it to CH and pronounce it like in the word 'Change'
SZ? pronounce like in 'Hush'!
2. Confused by Ł? Change it to WH like in 'What'
3. Ś Ć Ź are just short versions of SI, CI, ZI
4. Ą -> go from the O sound to the U sound
for Ę -> go from the E sound to the U sound
5. If you see CH in polish word, ignore the C,
CH and H sounds are pronounced the same!
6. J can be read as english Y like in "Yes"
7. If you see W just change it in your mind to V, and you're good to go!
8. Finally the Ó - that's just U, it exists for etymological reasons - no need to worry about it!
I think that is pretty much it, but it makes every polish word 80% less confusing
About reading Polish; actually very easy, language is (almost) phoneticaly consistent (just some devoicing from time to time, which can be disregarded and one is still very much understood)
For a funny video on that; HowToPolish and 'How to read Polish or something ' 😉
Ten film ma ze 20 lat
No właśnie.
Krakowie bylo kornowanych 42 polskich kroli polskich .❤
Thank you for making a film about Auschwitz, for many people it is an empty word, they do not know how evil people can go. In Poland, words are spoken the same way they are written. This is because the Slavic nation is a native people living in Poland. One half of my family was born here, the other half came and sailed from Latvia and the Netherlands. Greetings to the USA!
The wife and i went there for christmas market. Beautiful by the way we decided to do the jewish quarter or ghetto used to be. On tuktuk. The lady gave us amazing history eye opening of the treatment and ende up at schindlers business where he saved some jews from extermination. Then we visited Auschwitz...soul churning and a lot to take in. Makes you thankful to be alive and appreciate what you have. Needed a day reflection. But amazing and the best experience you could have. You have to go at least once in your life time. The people are awesome friendly and kind never had a issue. Poznan is great too. 👍
Schindler nie uratował kilku osób , tylko ponad tysiąc (różne źródła podają od 1200 - 1300).
@ewahoysz5987 I said he saved some. Whether it was more or less. He saved some. Over 6 million Jews were murdered. The matter to what he saved. Was still a life to live on.
The most beautiful Polish city is Wrocław, especially after the flood that hit the city in the late 1990s. Then everything was intensively renovated. Gdańsk is nice, although a bit chaotic. In recent years, medium-sized cities such as Tarnów, Sandomierz, Zielona Góra, Przemyśl, Zamość, Toruń, Grudziądz and many others have become more beautiful. After 1989, Poland made a civilizational leap.

It seems very strange to me that (peeled, and cooked whole) 'boiled potatoes' are odd-looking too you!!
Here in the UK, (a different kind of country to Poland and it's different national recipes etc), we do eat boiled potatoes, sometimes with a nice sprig of mint leaves, plus a knob of butter on top, as a regular part of a meal, just like jacket potatoes, or roast potatoes, or of course, mashed potatoes -with, or without grated cheese, and butter mixed into it - or 'chunky chips' (what you'd call 'steak fries'), or 'skinny chips' (your 'French' fries - which were apparently originally Belgian!) Potatoes are a basic food to most Brits, I imagine...
I would eat more if I could, but due to me now having failing kidneys. (😢) I am not 'allowed' to eat to much potato at any meal, or too frequently (too much potassium is not good for failing kidney function). Thus, smaller servings, served less frequently is better for me.
At least these reduced servings of potatoes means I can continue to enjoy them!! Baked, boiled, roasted, mashed, fried potatoes... Heaven on a plate!!❤😊🏴😏🇬🇧❤️🙂🖖
It's 20 years old and so what...still a good flick in the memory lane.
I’m visiting Krakow in May and looking forward to it immensely. I have booked a tour of Auschwitz but not sure if I’ll be able to hold back the tears.
Mojej babci wszystkie dzieci spłonęły w piecach Auschwitz z jej rodzicami.😢 Po wojnie urodziła córkę. Do końca życia było widać w jej oczach, że przeszła piekło.
Peacocks are pets all over the world.
yes thats right....late to the game connor only happened 2000 years ago!!
Judging by the cars, footage must be somewhere from 1990-2000. I was constantly having "wait, do they really still have this around?" moments, so many environment elements were totally off too compared to today's Poland :D God, so many things changed since then!
Going to poland😘🤗... to see auschwitz 😰
8:09 This is correct, but you will be pleased to know that there is a third Mary mentioned in the gospels, Mary of Cleophas, a disciple and relative of Jesus.
However, many of Europe's cathedrals, abbeys, or simply small churches are dedicated to Mary, the mother of Jesus.
The film is not about everything. Come, see, evaluate and taste Polish cuisine. And of course, Slavic women are beautiful.
Egiptian mummies used also to be kept in salt for a better preservation
Hi connor , my work collegue Jolanta is from Poland she's just gone there for a week to see family , and my sons off to krakow for few days . 😊
Pozdrawiam z pięknych Mazur
This movie is like 20 years old, it doesnt change the facts but it would look slightly different now.
I know it's hard for an American to understand these strange historical contradictions, but you must know that Poland is in Central and Eastern Europe. Poland was the border of east and west. Apart from our faults, because who doesn't have them, we have always been friendly to all nations. A 90% Christian country that would not allow Muslims to harm our Tatars. As I wrote, my friend, come, visit the country and see for yourself.
przetwarzanie ziemniaków na wszelkiego rodzaju kopytka i kluski śląskie to oszczędność przy zachowaniu dobrego smaku. Po prostu ziemniaki których ugotowano za dużo przerabia sie na kluski i dalej są bardzo smaczne. Gotowane ziemniaki podobnie jak frytki, jak ostygną są niesmaczne
Happy to learn that Poland now has a new more progressive government.
In Poland we have a saying: "A man is a wolf to another man," but it only refers to reluctance. These Germans who committed these terrible crimes were not normal people. The Nazi machine chose sociopaths for this task, brutal and unbalanced, because normal people either wouldn't do it or wouldn't last long. So neither you nor I would ever do something like that to another person.
Such and similar sayings also exist in Germany (also in Austria, Switzerland etc.) like ''Men are the 'Men's wolf' or 'The wolf/animal in the man/men' etc.
Hanseatic league joined cities at the seacoast in which Gdansk participated, unfortunnately not included in this video, as people say here in comments - outdated a bit, especially as regards as to views of Warsaw. It's indeed a historical video :) thank you for your reaction, especially to the Auschwitz part, Birkenau is very close to it, it's like a complex of the biggest concentration capm , left on Poland's territory by German nazis as a horrifying memorial
Amber is resin from a tree.
britain eats potatoes like this
As to religion in Poland, I think it was best summed up by Marek Edelman (last surviving leader of the Warsaw Ghetto uprising, later stayed in Poland and worked as a surgeon) when he said, having been asked how come he stays, as a Jew in such a Catholic country; 'Poles were never such devoute believers, they all now go to church to stick it to the commies'.
There is some, maybe a lot, of truth to this. I mean, Jewish religious meetings under communism (commies only allowed, very left wing, atheist Jewish life to happen) were taking place in Catholic churches! That was the place free of the state, where life, culture, free thought, etc. could take place.
Although I am not very religious, I am perfectly aware of the value of religion. Regardless of what values it refers to.
It is an element that binds communities together, creating meta-laws that regulate the social rules of a given community. Additionally, they provide protection against the relativization of social norms that degrade with social changes.
Individuals can maintain a mental connection to the rapidly changing reality around them.
Only a fool destroys a tree that gives him shelter from the rain and heat, that feeds him and gives him fuel in winter.
God gives strength. And he always wins in the end.
You have to check out the battle of Warsaw 1920
this is today's Warsaw🤘: ruclips.net/video/Q0pEewnkz5Y/видео.html
Very old video, all Poland change very much
a bit offensive... Warsaw and Krakow... what about Toruń, Gdańsk, Opole, Szczecin, Wrocław, Zakopane? and poland start in gniezno... in 966...
German French English Spanish are same group of languages and polish is different.
Romania is the next Poland. It will go though huge developemnt like Poland did. Especially since its alongside Ukraine, its been boosted by the general rise of eastern europe, the flow of Ukrainians inward and they will also benefit from the rise of Ukraine which will happen with its rebuilding.
?
Video is probably from early 2010’s so many things aren’t already true.
its from 2004
15:30 - not potatos my man
Do you drink water from a flower vase?🧐🧐
❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊
this is out of date! it is like showing USA 80s as present
The nordic languages are not that easy. The vocals have a difficult pronunciation.
old movie...1995-2000
🆗 👍 😂
Auschwitz was built by Poles. It is true that they were forced laborers, but they were built by Poles and were also the first victims of this camp. and if someone said that Poles are good workers, Aushwitz is the best example that they are not. Poles built it so slowly that it was opened to Jews in mid-1942. They spent 2 years building something that could have been built in half a year at most. therefore Aushwitz operated as a death camp for only 2.5 years. do you still think that Poles are good workers?
🤍❤️
This is old movie.
i think we have better potatos then US, thay are good in this form.
i think youll find germany is christian nearly half catholic and half protestant
Kraków is pronounced Krakuf not Krakau
Naprawde stare
When you talk about the pronunciation of the alphabet, French is definitely not on the side of phonetic languages. French takes the Latin alphabet and completely ignores all the letters. You can take a pen and press it against the paper and start drawing a random line without taking your hand off. And try to read it. And it would be no different from French phonetics.
North- east ???😂😂😂 we are in the centre 🤦🏻
Fuck! This video is old 😂
Hitler took a fancy to it😟
"Catholicism defines Poles" for me as a non-religious person from a less religious region of the country, this statement is not only offensive, but also full of ignorance
You've probably never been in a more religious region. 😅
@@rafalkaminski6389 Like Podlasie? no. but I have some experience from Małopolska, so I can imagine why such a radical statement was made during the part devoted to Krakow
This video whats u watching its from somewheres 2000 XD search for some actual looking videos
And now look what is happening in Gaza.
Truly awful.
Co to za starocie . Dzisiaj Polska wygląda zdecydowanie inaczej. To nowoczesny kraj , pamiętajacy o swojej historii. Masz nieaktualne dane.
Jak mnie wkurza mówienie o polskich obozach koncentracyjnych. Nie! To były niemieckie obozy koncentracyjne na terenie Polski wybudowane przez nazistów. Cholera nauczcie się wreszcie.
THERE WAS NO POLAND IN THE 1WW . POLAND CAME BACK ON THE MAP AFTER THE 1WW . SO POLES HAD TO FIGHT ON THE SIDE OF ITS OCUPIER MEANS THAT POLISH ALSO FAUGHT AGAINST EACH OTHER 🇵🇱✝️✡️🇮🇱☦️🕎🇵🇱
All these interuptions yet he says nothing. Shut up ffs.
Sorry for my question, don't get me wrong, but I hope you don't think the Auschwitz and Birkenau were built or running by the Poles, due to they lies on the Polish soil, didn't you, right?
This is supposed to be a film about Poland??? 😂
