    Do you like bagels? If you do, what is your favorite? 🥯😍

    The bagel was invented in Poland, but for whatever reason it isn’t talked about that much. It should definitely be advertised more as the birthplace. Vodka is also originally from Poland, even though Russia likes to think otherwise. A lot of Russians when Vodka originally came out in Poland brought it over to Russia. Soon after they started replicating it since they liked it so much.

    Great to see Krakow, I spend some time here in 2020, but it looks so different in the wet, I was lucky enough to be there in a sunny hot spell. It's a beautiful city with so much interesting and tragic history.

      Definitely agree PB and to see how far they’ve come through all of the tragedy, it’s really inspiring. Next time we visit it will be in warmer weather ☀️ as we want to experience more of the outdoors that Poland has to offer 😍

      Im native to Krakow and to be honest if you look for tragedy I would rather recommend Warsaw. Krakow was more or less untouched by the 2WW. Sure both soviet and nazi occupations deprived the city of lots of its previous wealth but compared to Warsaw which has been flattened by the Germans in 2WW and then rebuilt in the commie way after the fell of the iron curtain it’s nothing…

      @@zegarp Yes, I drove out to see it when I was staying in Krakow. Yes that's what I meant - I was told that many Jews from Krakow ended up in the concentration camps. I believe the film "Schindler's List" was filmed in Krakow so rightly or wrongly the town is associated with that tragedy. I also visited a large park to the south of Krakow which had been a concentration camp, it had a statue and many information boards about the history of the site, (I have fogotten its name though)

    About the bagels - I've heard this legend too that their origin is in Kraków. But if it's true, it was probably not the bagels you were having. It was probably the "obwarzanki", thin, crusty bagel-like bread sold everywhere in Kraków (and rarely seen outside of Kraków) for very cheap, just a snack on the go. Those were taken to US in XIX century migration, and developed there into today's bagels. Now, after the Polish transformation in early 2000's they came back to Poland as a fashionable snack from America and become popular here. So you were not trying traditional Polish bagels, you were rather trying the Polish imitation of American bagels (even if it was delicious and maybe better than you can buy in US - Poland knows how to bake bread, trust me).

    I LOVED this vlog! Pity about the poor sleeping situation but the tour of the city was fascinating and I loved the lesson about bagels. They're not that popular here in Australia but I occasionally see them in a cafe. I've also ordered two from Krispy Kreme in the past, but it's been a while. My favourite filling is smoked salmon and cream cheese which they constantly run out of.

      @@MariaOliviaTravel technically its not really random if you take into account that the entire Polish nation has 60 million people and only 40 million live in Poland and the rest, 20 million Poles live abroad. There is a joke (based on population numbers) that the second largest polish city is Chicago.

      @Catomir there’s plenty of Jews in Poland especially before WWII. The bagel is popular amongst the Jewish. So not a big surprise at all that the bagel comes from the Jewish Quarter in Kraków Poland.

    Krakow has a very beautiful inner city and a very big Jewish history. The sory of Schindler's List starts with the establishment of the Kraow Ghetto.
    Would love to taste the bagel Maria had, with smoked salmon and cream cheese.
    Unfortunately the region of Krakow declared itself as an LGBTI ideology free zone in 2019, which it only gave up in 2021 due to financial pressure from the European Union.

    • @scorp491
      @scorp491 2 года назад +3

      Speaking of the LGBT-free zone, the Lesser Poland Voivodeship, in which Krakow is located, established it. Krakow was against it from the very beginning and put pressure on the provincial authorities to endure it.

      @MariaOliviaTravel  2 года назад +2

      Michael you’ve been in so many places! That’s awesome 😁 we loved the city and it’s history, we wish we had more time to explore more as a day and a few hours was definitely not enough. Unfortunately Poland hasn’t been known as the most LGBT friendly country, but we hope things will progress, so more people can openly enjoy this beautiful country❤️

    • @jaaceknoowak
      @jaaceknoowak 2 года назад

      You are very much right about the "LGBT+ ideology" how they (and you) call just LGBT+ people in Poland, they are the subject raised by the governing party to present an enemy to their supporters for mobilization and to introduce a sense of community attacked by this dangerous "ideology" destroying catholic values and family values. You see, even you fell into this trap calling normal people living here an "ideology". You must understand the reasons behind it though. The right side, church supporting (and supported by the church) party relies on votes from uneducated, catholic voters from small towns and villages. They always loose in bigger cities. Now the city authorities are elected by the city inhabitants of course, so the governing party looses there. So the city authorities are normally (almost always) against that traditional catholic policy to create an imaginary threat to focus on and turn away from real problems this country has. But the voivodeship's authorities are appointed by the government and the people in the city have nothing to say about it. And it's the voivodeship authorities who establishes those absurd decisions (not doing anything in practice, just showing off).
      So if you want to punish Poland by not coming here, then you are right, that's the right way to do it and you have every legitimate reason to do it (although you really punish yourself rather). But if you want to punish Kraków by not coming there, then it makes no sense. Kraków (although it's quite traditional city and the elites in Kraków are a bit special about the high self regard and feeling of being much better educated and cultural than the rest of the country's middle class) had nothing to do with it or about it.
