- After endlessly exploring Warsaw's gorgeous neighborhoods replete with tree-lined streets, picturesque houses and modern apartments with balconies, it was time for a change. Yes, I was now convinced that Warsaw is a truly modern European capital, but what's beyond?
What follows is a mini adventure that was way more than we expected.

Thank you Csaba for your support!
Csaba is Hungarian.
Interesting fact is the owner of this ice cream place won an international prize in Italy 4-5 years ago for their plum flavored ice cream and currant ice cream.
As Marina is heavily pregnant, you should ask for a skip in the queue. It is customary in Poland: pregnant women can't stay long in the heat. Everyone understands it.
TOO MUCH TIME OR MONEY?
@Azmuth yes
What application have you used to get to Piastów?
@Azmuth Only if you don't have too much groceries.
Bardziej grzeczniej jest jak ludzie oferują przejście na przód kolejki
Poland is so beautiful 🇵🇱🇱🇻
Quattro Si is one of the best ice cream shops in the world. They took 42nd place in Top 100 Best Gelato Chefs 2020.
In 90's Pruszków was known as a headquarters of the mafia. In 00's most the gangsters were arrested. From that time we have a saying "Gdzie kończą się Reguły, tam zaczyna się Pruszków". Reguły is a a village next to Pruszków, but also the word that means "rules", so it means "Where Reguły ends, Pruszków begins" and also "Where the rules (of the law) end, Pruszków begins (or takes its origin)". ;)
Pruszków is also known because of one of the largest Polish psychiatric hospital in Tworki, with a unique XIX-century industrial architecture that looks like a city within a city. It looks similar to Księży Młyn in Łódź with the large park with a war cemetery and some ponds inside.
cały czs nie rozumie, ze miasta składają sie z dzielnic. nie muszą być w granicach niasta. to są metropolie. NY ma 783,8 km². populacja 8,804,190.
VERY NICE FAMOUS HOSPITAL THERE...
@@arek3866 It's really funny, that the famous hospital is a largest area in Pruszków with the best architecture of historical value. Before Covid the area was open, so there was no problem to go there for sightseeing. I don't know if it is now still the case. Of course taking pictures or filming is not allowed just to protect the privacy of the patients.
I have recommended your channel to the staff at the Polish Consulate in Houston, Texas. They told me that they are already aware of your channel.
Nice!
“This pipe, it’s so shiny!” I’ve heard you comment on the parks, sidewalks, modern apartments, all the architecture, and of course the balconies. But this is the first time I heard you comment on a pipe. 😁 You are like a small child, full of wonder at seeing new things. And never any negative comments. It’s refreshing. I’m glad you and Marina had such a nice day and met someone to give you a ride home. Marina must get so tired on your long walks, but she’s glowing. All the best!
I concur! Also, the level of his positivity is simply amazing!
Konstancin Jeziorna. Must try!
That's a pretty town for sure! Park Zdrojowy is amazing - and there's lots of villas with balconies there
how nice of that gentleman to help you
Poles love their icecream. It is so much better than the icecream here in the States. Another fantastic video, guys. What a great little trip! And I like the new channel name, too!
Go to Podkowa Leśna or Komorów the so called "garden towns" on the line of WKD. These towns were built according to special architecture concepts. On the other side of Warsaw go to Konstancin Jeziorna which has a status of a health resort.
Congratulations!
You are famous now.
Let's go to Pruszków - nobody said it in 90's.
Kolejka po lody na środku osiedla… muszę sprawdzić to miejsce
PlanetJames ❤ cool!
Go to Konstancin-Jeziorna near Warsaw
Funny, my wife and I when we watch your videos we always wait for your customary "it's really, really good". You say it all the time and may not even realize it... Do you! :)
SKM - Szybka Kolej Miejska (Rapid City Train). Something like Overground in London :)
@5:41 General Haller - one of the best commanders in modern Polish history. His "Blue Army" defeated the Soviets on the outskirts of Warsaw in 1920.
Long live russia 🇷🇺
@@tobo421 Да, традиционно - в полном дерьме. Не так давно оно доходило вам до горла, а теперь вы погружены в нее до бровей. Если их так хорошо удобрять, то вырастут как у Брежнева. LOL
Another beautiful place. Poland is impressing me more and more! By the way, I really like your new channel name.
Thanks Michael
Great challenge. I would like to recommend the most green city in Poland probably - Podkowa Leśna. You can catch WKD train from city center to this beautiful town.
Oh yes, Gardens of Warsaw. The only thing is that walking would be rather difficult for Marina.
Milanówek Brwinów or Podkowa Leśna are Perfect for them. Marina needs fresh air, they should reduce their spendings too. Podkowa Leśna is stunning but Milanówek has kolej mazowiecka and brand new neighbourhood next to train station with big balconies
Lower Silesia, a magical land of castles, forgotten palaces, small, beautiful towns, mysterious buildings, mountains, lakes, streams, rivers and lakes. Beautiful hiking trails. but it is a long journey, one day is not enough.
I was living in Piastów for 2 yrs with my little son, but my wife forced me to move back to Warszawa. No city center in Piastów, no "serious" park there to walk with children. Going to Pruszków was your best decision of the day.
Yes i live in Piastow and there is no entertainment here. We have to go few kilometers out to reach a place to spend some nice time with kids, for instance - Glinki.
Piastów is my hometown. I've seen all your videos from Warsaw and didn't expect you to end up here ;) I confirm - there is nothing to see. It's basically a sleeping area. Still nice to see these well-known streets with your eyes. And btw Quattro-Si is run by actual Italian. Best ice cream I've ever eaten.
A "fun" fact: Pruszków in the`90 was known as the capital of polish mafia.
You should rename your channel to Mr. Nice Balconies 🙂 but i really appreciate what you do for Poland, especially for Polish tourism industry..
naprawde robi robotę
I LOVE YOUR NEW NAME!
The towns around Warsaw are mostly satellites - they don't really form a separate, complete entities (some people will argue otherwise in case of Pruszków and Piaseczno, maybe Wołomin). So what you're gonna get there are mostly sleeping districts, some parks and leisure areas. You were right in the video - it's cheaper to buy an apartment outside Warsaw and commute. So overall very typical layout for metropolitan areas of big cities. Silesia (Aglomeracja Górnośląska) is quite opposite, BTW. It's a group of separate cities forming what's called polycentric metropolitan area, with Katowice being the biggest of them. And Sosnowiec is a part of that pack. And at this point you know you are destined to visit Sosnowiec, can't escape it. ;)
Sosnowice Warszawskie
we live in great metropolises. in Poland, cities merge. via communication links. not across administrative boundaries.
ми живемо у великих мегаполісах. у Польщі міста зливаються. через канали зв'язку. не перетинає адміністративні кордони.
we live in great metropolises. in Poland, cities merge. via communication links. not across administrative boundaries.
I don't know how situation looks in Piaseczno and Pruszków but having lived in Wołomin for 20 years I can say that it has only began to be it's own entity in the last 10-5 years. Now it is something more than just a place to sleep with over 20 restaurants, shopping center, cinema and parks (though they are rather small) as well as 2 train stations with the main one having Intercity connections to most major cities in Poland without the need to change in Warsaw.
@@krzysztofswiniarski8275 Yeah, similar here. I think it accelerated when Sasin wanted to extend Warsaw administrative borders.
I have lived in Piastów for 37 years and I love this city. now I live in Pruszków. This is a beautiful area of the capital! Lots of parks and greenery
That queue for the icecreams just shocked me! They had to be really good for sure?!
Yes i agree, im from Piastow i ive been there several times. Very good icecream, really worth to try.
You really like balconies 😄
Mega wspaniali ludzie, dużo zdrówka życze! Pozdrawiam
Only James can say " look at this pipe... its so shiny!" 🤣 and keep me entertained and interested! 👍
The trains are different cause theyre operated by different companies, the first one you rode was operated by koleje mazowieckie, the other one was SKM. Also great video, we all thought youd gone to Kraków, Pruszków used to have a bad rep cause of mafia and all. You can check out Wołomin and Radzymin which are also famous mafia towns next to Warsaw, i doubt theres anymore 90s tier mafia there anymore, soo small chances for a "we made it out alive episode"
Wonderful video. Loved it! I loved how you let the random picker.. pick your next city. Such a cute idea. 😉. That ice cream looked amazing… now I want ice cream. LoL. Such a beautiful day for a stroll through another wonderful city. ..♥️♥️❤️🥰😎
Thank you Cheryl!
@@planetjames95 ♥️♥️❤️👋🏼
Not far from Warsaw is the city of Płock - it used to be a polish capital city. Many interesting things and views to see. BTW best polish sunset here at river bank! Greets!
That was fun to watch. Love the way you chose the destination!
Hey Jim, have you seen Zegrze Dam yet? It's a big retention lake and you can go there by train - S3 to Nieporęt or by bus 705 or 735 to Nieporęt. It's about an hour long ride from downtown but you can spend there the whole day :)
great synchronicity with the driver and even better ice cream!!! that means you are on the good track :) love the channel btw.
Great adventure, Great weather.
Kept going.
Great video concept!
😊 love this format
Love your new channel name, its perfect.
You should visit Radom next. Radom is a state of mind lol. It is up there with Sosnowiec. Those 2 are known as black horses of Poland or even separate countries a rolling joke in Poland to say that those places are just "special"
Chytra baba z Radomia
Radom and Sosnowiec are to Poland as chelabinsk is to russia. Dont know about ukraine?
Honsetly, I've never expected to see my hometown on your channel. Nice ;)
Great idea with a spinning wheel - if repeated consider letting us know day-two days earlier - you will get a lot of hints where to go, what to visit!
Great idea GGB
Marina is glowing 😍
I freaking love them balconies!! ;* Greeting to both of you from Lublin, Poland
I wish the lady healthy beautiful baby.Happy life for you guys.
Oh new name!!!! I LOVE it.
I'm coming to Warsaw next week.....I'm going to bug you if I run into you on the street! :-)
A great new name, Jim 👌
Our planet is a small world after all.. 👏
nice one! very good idea!
,,Even have a Biedronka,, You just made my day.
S1 is a city line like tram lines, bus lines, etc. R1 is a rail's mazovian line which goes much further than city lines
Thank you 🙏
Awesome video 🤙 I will be in Poland during the summer, I hope to accidentally run into you
Bro, go to Opole for a weekend, a small town but interesting. The houses in the nearby villages are full of color.
Move to Poznań, it’s green, quiet and modern. Marina needs this sort of place right now. Or Mazury or back to Gdańsk.
Wroclaw, including sailing on the Oder just before dusk, Ostrów Tumski, University, University Church, Arsenal, Hala Stulecia and ..... Nafta Restaurant
If I saw that line I'd be out of there hahaha. Can't wait for Kraków tour one day, maybe some Random Dave crossover with balcony rating. :p
Interesting note: In Pruszków in 90's was created the biggest and most horrible gang in Poland. It was called ,,gang pruszkowski''. Practically whole country could be terrorized by them, especially Masovia, where murders, kidnaps and tribute was a ,,normal'' thing. It was like a cancer because the police and state wern't able to destroy it. Fortunately, about 20 years ago there were finally pacified once for all. And now you were able to walk safely in Pruszków :)
i agree
U nas był Pruszków w latach 90tych, a w Rosji jest Kreml w teraźniejszości 😆
@@filipkogut8533 …they have Kremlin since the 90s until presen - World’s biggest mafia
@MsLuki777 Spora część mafii pruszkowskiej mieszkała w Ożarowie. Nazywała się pruszkowska, bo tam "pracowała", ale potem w latach 90. i później była fala spektakularnych zatrzymań członków mafii u nas w Ożarowie. Paradoksalnie, jako sypialnia mafii Ożarów był bezpieczny.
nice voiceover at the beggining! You did it like bez planu. haha
Glad you liked it!
I will recommend Joniec its a proper willage with beautifule rover where you can have a kajak river trip or Nowy dwór mazowiecki if you more intrested with muzeum Staff both places Play key role in ww1 when Red army was stoped. And if you need tour guy (historian) three id no problem just key nie know on priv
Sorry but my auto fill wrote for me 😂
What a great day!
Tatra mountains + Zakopane, Masurian lakes, Bieszczady (close to Ukraine), Łeba (national park), Białowieża (National park with European bisons), Wroclaw, in July - Grunwald (reenactment of battle of Grunwald, one of the biggest in medieval Europe), Palace in Moszna,
I like how your camera renders blue sky. What model is it exactly anyway?
Next time when you will be visiting Pruszkow for ice cream go and check Orka restaurant. Like Wojtek said, this is one of the best fish and seafood restaurants in Warsaw metropolitan area. Greetings from the resident of Pruszkow. :-)
I really liked that second train. I don't know why I'm suddenly so fascinated with public transportation. This is supposed to be Alan's purview.
Of course the ending was awesome :-) And those might have been peonies. They went by really fast. Also I'm not necessarily all that good with flowers...
26:33 Wow, the Ukrainian language holy mass in a Roman Catholic church led by a Greek Catholic priest. Wow.
Guys , In regards of SKM- Szybka Kolej Miejska. It belongs to ZTM- Warsaw’s public system. R- trains are part of regional railway system called Koleje Mazowieckie. They compliment each other within greater Warsaw area. Stay safe and enjoy your sightseeing trips in Poland.🇨🇦
"Probably has the center somewhere" - brave assumption if you speak about Warsaw suburbs.
dobry pomysł ! brawo
You should visit Upper Silesia / Górny Śląsk.
I suggest going to cities like Katowice, Tychy, or Częstochowa.
From smaller places you will for sure like Pszczyna as well.
Częstochowa to nie Śląsk, tylko Województwo Śląskie.
Pszczyna, Gliwice, Żywiec.
Pruszków & Wołomin - notorious mafia towns, almost like Bloods & Cribs
16:39 pruszków is way cheaper than Warsaw just becouse of bad stereotypes from 90ties, its your chance to get affordable flat less than 25 minutes away from pałac kultury by train. Pro tip: nobody checks ticket in skm( mayby ticket controllers are affraid of people from pruszków)
Near Warsaw we have a lot of beauty little cities like Grodzisk Mazowiecki, Milanówek, Konstancin
Especially Milanówek is worth it. Better version of Żoliborz
Never understood those crazy lines for ice creams. In my city I see them all the time during summer
Zielonka so close.. Ech.. My city, green city, lakes and forest.
Maybe next time? 😃
Actually you should be the Ambassador for Poland 🇵🇱
I used to live in Pruszków in an old building near that first park. I was somewhat sad you didn't have Ożarów Mazowiecki on your list - please include it when you spin the wheel next time ;-). So it's not a large city, but it's quite nice.
26:10 "look at this pipe" xd i laugh so hard
Sandomierz, Tarnów, when u want quit small lovelu city for visit
I attended a music school in that park in Pruszków.
02:44 Biedronka ponad wszystko😂
Such a bummer you haven't seen more of Piastów... We have so many nice balconies here ;) But seriously you have not really seen the town.
Pruszkow- famous Polish Mafia city 😏
You were lucky it didn't randomly choose Piaseczno. An extreme dump.
This is Piassachusets.
Or Marina should breathe some fresh forest air. Go to the Kabacki forest, which is in Warsaw.
Piastów or Pruszków are only officially separated cities. More or less they are a part of Warsaw metropolitan area. As you noticed before Warsaw looks like a blend of different cities. It is like that indeed- the borders of the city were enlarged many times during last 60 years. And the city of Warsaw incorporated many of previously independent communes like Ursus (which have a border with Piastow). All in all you must consider Pruszkow and Piastow as a part of Warsaw - the have even Warsaw public transport or sewer system. If you want small cities, which can be considered as a separated entity you need to go 40 -100 from the centre of Warsaw.
@MsLuki777 tak znam i lubię Pruszków- ale z punktu widzenia jego filmów chciałem wytłumaczyć, że w praktyce cała Warszawa składa się z dawniej oddzielnych miast i wsi. Piastów niczym się nie różni od Ursusa tyle, że ten drugi został włączony do Warszawy, Wesoła niczym nie różni sie od Sulejówka poza tym, ze została włączona do Warszawy. Wawer jest zaś jak Jozefów i Otwock.
@MsLuki777 Tak, ok. Jestem z Wołomina więc wiem o czym mówisz. Tylko tytuł filmu mówi o „kolejnym polskim mieście”. Trudno uznać, zwłaszcza amerykańskiego punktu widzenia, że Piastów to jakieś odległe polskie miasto - po przekroczeniu granicy Ursusa nagle świat się diametralnie nie zmienia. Pojechanue kilkanaście minut komunikajcą miejską z Ochoty nie jest wyprawą do innego świata.
honestly Piastów is one of the ugliest suburbaned cities around the city of Warsaw
I Live here i can agree partly, but still is quite cheap to buy here an apartment. I've made a greet deal buying an 62 meters apartment in Piastow. And I live 5 min walk from the train station, so from where there only 20 min to Warsaw city center, very convinient.
9:57 HAHAHAHAHA that girl totally didnt want to be on video
Lotnisko Chopina - we always read the name the French way, no matter if it is written Chopin or Szopen. The latter version is rather forgotten today.
I get the impression that each episode is actually your own, for you, vocal, verbal psychotherapy. You avoid negativisms, you see only the positives, you give them a verbal form and this is how you heal your soul. At the same time, you eat large portions of food, which is how you invigorate your body with flavors and delight with flavors, another therapy, this time with a taste.
Great comment. Thank you!
You should go to the park. I live there for 7 years. If like nature go back to the big park in Pruszków.
Pruszków used to be a capital city of polish mafia.
Wołomin disagrees with calling those kids from Pruszków a real mafia.
Lwów is called Lwów, not just "was". It *IS* just how we call it in Polish language.
We don't say -iw in the end of placenames like Ukrainians do, but we say -ów.
And we call Paris - Paryż, so it is also language thing, not only politics
Notification gang! First aswell
If you have the ability to travel further in to Poland. You should visit Katowice and you should stay over night. This city night Life is what you have to see.
