It was in Poland that the most popular concentration camp in history was held, where unimaginable, extremely brutal, shocking and morally devoid of things happened. There are millions of people who died in Auszwice, children and adults were killed there. None of the adults had a chance to survive the Gas with which he was killed by his lords, however, some children managed to survive the Gas, but he did not survive for long because he was killed by the soldiers later and the experience itself that the poor child had to endure was extremely brutal and not moral. Less than 1,000 people tried to escape, but only 144 managed to escape from this hell. Nowadays, Auszwic serves as a tourist attraction where people can see and learn with their own eyes what a brutal place devoid of all humanity. Auszwic can be found in Oswiecin in the Lesser Poland Voivodeship.

However, in this article I do not want to focus on history, but more on what people eat, listen and more in Poland .

 Food - Pierogi are very popular in Poland, as everyone knows, very simple to create but at the same time a very tasty and nutritious dish. There are many ways to make a dumpling, its creation is trivial, we make the dough, add whatever good comes to our mind and wrap it up, with this combination you can create various variants of this dish, which will all taste better. Also in Poland, potatoes are very popular, Poles like potatoes very much, I would even say that they prefer potatoes more than French fries.

Music - For many years, the song by Zenek Martyniuk reigned in Poland, titled "Through your green eyes", and this song has an extraordinary number of views on the You Tube platform - over 130 million views, but the children's song "Kaczuszki" surpassed this legendary hit. When we talk about music, it is very important to say something about the Polish National Anthem, i.e. Poland is not yet lost, it has only 1.7 million views but let's be honest, no one goes to YouTube to listen to the national anthem and this is what we used to learn in schools.

 Customs - Poland has a lot of customs that differ from other countries, I could write a separate article about it, so I will give one simple example. In Poland, instead of Halloween, we have All Saints' Day. This is the day when we go to the graves of our loved ones to give them a candle and pray for them. It is worth noting that Poland is a very religious country and in the early years of life, until the age of 13, there is a subject run by a church priest to teach children about God, the Bible and prayers.

 Poland in other countries - Polish music does not achieve much success abroad, much less Polish cinematography, which is worthy of regret. However, there is a different conversation when we talk about Food, books or Polish games.
Polish food is well know in other countries. Pierogi for example and Polish alcohol.
And there is CD project red released one of the best-rated and liked games in the world, The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt, on portals such as Imdb it is in the top 5 best-rated games and is a widely known and liked production. Also, based on Andrzej Sapowski's books, a series was created on Netflix, which gained huge popularity and the book became a bestseller in New York.

 Stereotypes- What is a Stereotype: A stereotype is an unchanging image, idea or image of one social group about another, to which characteristic behaviors, traits, skills or properties are commonly attributed. Unfortunately, Poles have very unpleasant stereotypes, the most popular stereotypes (from Stereotypy o Polakach - Portret - Polki.pl )are: Poles are alcoholics, Poles complain a lot, Poles are thieves and Poles try to save money on everything. And in my opinion, some of them are very accurate comments and this can be seen in the behavior of Poles abroad. However, it is very important not to put all Poles in the same bag, because for an ordinary, normal Pole who knows how to behave, these comments can be very hurtful and inappropriate, so you should always stop for a moment before making judgments.

Świnoujście is one of the most famous cities in Poland, especially because of its beaches.
Świnoujście has 41,000 inhabitants and its area is 197 km2.

Świnoujście has the widest natural beach in Poland. Over 200 meters - this is the length of the beach at its widest point. This length can be compared to the length of 2 football fields from goal to goal. The sandy beach is 10 km long and reaches up to the German border. The beach impresses not only with its size.

Related to this, it is also one of the most popular tourist places to see in Poland.
