![]() The museum exhibits a cycloramic painting “The Battle of Racławice” painted in the years 1893-1894 by a team of painters. Panorama of Racławice (Panorama Racławicka) A walk through the Japanese Garden takes about two hours and for a family of 2+2 costs PLN 40. The Japanese Garden is open daily from April 1 st to October 30 th from 9:00 a.m. These are mandatory tenants of traditional Japanese gardens.Īlso worth seeing are the gates, tearoom, or stone lanterns – some of the elements of the décor come from the original Asian gardens from the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Even the fish in the pond of the Japanese Garden are not chosen by chance. Their character makes them strongly rooted in Far Eastern philosophy and culture, and the garden is full of symbols. A separate system, but no less spectacular, is the arrangement of streams, cascades and ponds in the Japanese Garden. In the garden there are about 30 species of plants from the Far East and Japan. Speaking of romanticism, the Japanese Garden should be mentioned here. In my personal opinion, this is not the best option for traveling with children, but it will work perfectly in the case of a romantic getaway with your other half. In addition to the observation deck, you can also rent a room on one of the floors of the Wrocław tower. The price for entering the terrace ranges in price and is dependent on time of the day. Tickets for the observation deck can and even should be booked in advance, and it is no secret that the most popular time is when the sunset falls. From here you can also see the Ślęża mountain, and in good weather also Chełmiec and Śnieżka. From the glazed terrace located nearly 200 meters above the ground, you can admire the western and northern parts of Wrocław. The Sky Tower Viewpoint is one of the city’s biggest tourist attractions. I need to warn you that the ZOO is crowded, so for a trip combined with Hydropolis, book yourself a whole day. However, in our case, we started our tour by visiting Hydropolis and only then we went to the ZOO and Afrykarium. This is a considerable saving, but also a lot of walking. In addition, you can park the car in the free Hydropolis parking lot and then visit the ZOO and return to the car. I will point out here that by the ticket office in Hydropolis you can buy a combined ticket for the Wrocław ZOO, Afrykarium and Hydropolis which costs in total PLN 239. ![]() For example, Archimedes screws, a water wheel, a water clock and a Heron turbine.Ī ticket to Hydropolis for a family of four costs PLN 85 and the tour itself lasts between 1-2 hours. You can independently check the operation of water inventions from ancient times. For my son and I, the most interesting part turned out to be the “History of Water Engineering”. I personally had a really good time here. It is a place maintained in an extraordinary atmosphere, where multimedia, interactive installations and technologies show the potential of water inherent in cities, depths, atmosphere, as well as in the human body. Hydropolisħ thematic exhibitions, interactive games for the youngest visitors, a relaxation zone for adults, ship models, a real bathyscaphe and an interactive mobile application for visitors available in English and German are just some of the attractions available in Wrocław Hydropolis. As of the time writing this article, a family ticket with admission to Afrykarium costs PLN 195. Here you will find the ticket price list. While my kids have already had the pleasure of seeing an ordinary zoo, the views in the Oceanarium took their breath away. ![]() While walking through the underwater tunnel, you can admire various species of crocodiles, including the Nile crocodile, sharks and stingrays. ![]() The pavilion houses contain several swimming pools. The world’s only Oceanarium dedicated to the marine fauna and flora characteristic to the Black Continent. One of the largest is the famous Afrykarium. ![]() The garden offers a whole bunch of attractions for younger and slightly older visitors. And speaking of which, it is impossible not to mention that Wrocław ZOO has 12,000 inhabitants, representing 1100 species! This represents the biggest institution, taking first place in the country and one of the leading positions in Europe. This is why I will also start with attractions that may appeal to the youngest of you. We went on this trip to Wroclaw together with our children. ![]()
