Bydgoszcz is not a city on the usual tourist circuit of Poland, which adds to its surprising charms. You feel like you’ve found the ‘real’ Poland and it’s thoroughly lovely. Bydgoszcz has a long and interesting history, beautiful architecture, a focus on arts and culture, and a growing food scene. It’s also the home of the Museum of Soap and History of Dirt where you can get the down and dirty on hygiene through the ages and try making your own soap. It’s also where you find the original Cukierna Sowa, a popular chain across Poland full of delicious chocolates and sweet treats. Don’t miss trying some local wine, taking a river cruise, and chilling out at Mill Island near the Old Town.
Huge thank you to the Polish Tourism Organization for having us!

Moje piękne rodzinne miasto Bydgoszcz❤
Its one of the most beautiful cities in Poland and it is getting more beautiful every day. I love Bydgoszcz so much.
I loved Bydgoszcz, l hope some day comeback
Bydgoszcz jest pieknym miastem, okolice tez sa sliczne. Lubie wracac do mojego miasta. Bydgoszcz to Bydgoszcz. Dawniej jeszcze piekniejsza i bogatsza.
I just couldn't stop smiling when i was watching Your video. It's always nice to watch city You live in from the perspective of tourists. Keep one thing in mind – there's a lot more to see in Bydgoszcz! 🙂 Greetings!
O Bydgoszczy 💚 💚
My city ❤️🇵🇱…great video !
A little error correction – Poland joined EU in 2004.
1:15
We're in UE since 1st May 2004 not 2006
Odbytgoszcz.

OMG my hometown 😍 I’ve been living in London for the last 11 years and miss Bydgoszcz a lot. You showed me this place from completely different perspective. I literally had tears in my eyes. Thanks guys ❤️❤️❤️
You guys are great! Your videos have the perfect combination of art, history, culture, music, and fun. So well put together!
I love you guys! you're so much fun and informative! And Eileen your laughs are contagious! keep it up girl
🙂 <3
Cool! Great video! You inspired me to go to Bydgoszcz! Hello from Russia! Круто! Отличное видео! Вы вдохновили меня на поездку в Быдгощ! Привет из Руси!
Bydgoszcz is one of my favourite cities in Poland and we have direct flights from Scotland.
Wow my hometown ..its cool to see it attracts more tourists as got load to offfer , shame that yoh havent see Myslecinek park as it is beutifull park
you are darn cute couple
Guys, you don’t even know how happy, and surprised actually, you made me. Bydgoszcz is my hometown, grew up in Szwederowo but since 2004 I’m living in London. I was always regretting that not many tourists are visiting my hometown, maybe now it’s gonna change! You should see Forest Park of Culture and Rest- Myslecinek and as well you might enjoy walk in Valley of Five Ponds. Och you made me miss my Bydgoszcz more right now….
So much to see, awesome work.
2004
Kuchnia looked to be a real high end restaurant-was it expensive?
that statue is wild! How does it stay balanced on that wire??
My beautiful city🇵🇱❤️
This is honestly one of the best videos ever I’ve seen this about 1 million times
I went to that restaurant and the old town and saw that statue it's amazing there! ♡☆
Nice and safe
My Grandmother lives in Bydgoszcz 😄😄i allways go there when i take a flight to Poland btw me and my whole family is polish 🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱
A museum you need to visit next time you're in Bydgoszcz is the white garner (it's near the man crossing a river statue) where's an exihibit showing the history of Bydgoszcz, it's really worth checking out (and you can even dress up as historical characters there). On the Mill Island there are 2 amazing muzeums: Modern Art Gallery (with great works by polish artists) and Mennica, where you can see how old polish money looked like! Another very interesting museum is Exploseum, which is located in the outskirts of Bydgoszcz, in old Natzis weapon factory and even has a themed escape room! And lastly, not a museum, but a local brewery in Osowa Góra (which is literally called Osowa Gora Brewery), where many super tasty beers are manufactured (and they also supply a couple of hotels in our voivodeship). Oh and I just remembered that in a little alley between Gdańska Street and Kazimierz Wielki Park (where the foutain you showed is located) there are sold the best ice cream in Bydgoszcz (the ice cream parlor is called Prima). Moreover nearby, where starts Pomorska street from Gdanska street there's a shop with pączki (similar to donuts) where yummy sweet and savoury pączki are sold. I personally love the spinach ones! Hope you'll visit my hometown again soon!
To everybody who wants to visit Bydgoszcz: we have an app with offline access to maps and guides, including public transport information and calendar of events! https://visitbydgoszcz.pl/en/discover/3572-bydgoszcz-official-mobile-app (btw, it's a link from Bydgoszcz's official site about tourism and places worth visitig!)
10:21 It is my favorie meal. Raw beaf + yolk of an egg. We call it "Tatar".
I hope covid didn't ruin your life.
Bdg🥰🥰🤪
Nuke it
Great vlog!! I love when travelers also opt for the less visited and touristy places! You might make some stupendous discoveries, finding a secret gem! Godspeed to you both and lots of greetings from Bonn! ❤
Indeed amazing place. I recently visited this place. I find very interesting as well. The architectures are very unique here in this city. I also created video about this place. Spent a good time.
YOu welcome in Bydgoszcz 🙂
