Museum of Jan Kasprowicz on Harenda. It is worth checking the opening hours in order to be able to get inside, listen to the stories about the writer and his wife Marusia, maybe buy a book of poetry or another interesting item. Watching a beautiful home from the outside is also nice, but definitely more impressive is the visit inside.
Why Zakopane?
To say that Zakopane has as many supporters as opponents – it could be a bit too much optimistic estimate. For unknown reasons just this city is getting spanking from Internet users in various forums. There is no shortage of people loving Zakopane who come back here repeatedly. Although, there are people who, after stay only on one occasion, say „never again”. So what determines such extreme opinions?
Spontaneity does not always pay off.
Those who did not bring home good memories from Zakopane probably went unprepared here, not knowing what they can count on and what they can not. Maybe they did not have the right clothes and shoes, so they got cold and wet? Maybe they planned the time too intensely, and later it turned out that covering considerable distances would take longer? Maybe they overestimated their ability, they have not previously collected information on the opening hours of museums and galleries or they ignored the announcements of the Tatra National Park regarding obstacles on the trails? Maybe they did not have someone who would suggest what to look for and being right next to some attraction – just missed it?
Highlanders like to scare tourists, but mostly with a grain of salt.
Do not be surprised.
This site is for those who want to avoid disappointments, and to Zakopane they come with curiosity and lack of prejudice. Many of them arise as a result of misunderstandings, and they can be avoided by asking around. And then it will turn out that it is a great place to relax for tourists in every age group – students, married couples with children, for busy middle-aged people and for seniors. It is good idea, even before coming to Zakopane, to find the answer to the question: how we like to spend the time, what makes us happy and what we are tired of? And then, taking it into consideration, look for accommodation, choose dates of stay, find out about current changes in the offer. To prevent the situation that the selected attractions are closed, the hotel is far from the places we want to see, and our condition does not allow us to explore the area as we imagined. By the way of the imagination – although we appreciate its potential for everyone who reads these words, we are sure that there may be more than one surprise here. And not everything can be predicted by anyone who has never been to the Tatra Mountains – or once and briefly. Fortunately, most of these surprises can be classified as positive. So, please come back to us, to our website. Articles in various categories will be regularly published here, showing Zakopane with the eyes of those who, being here every day, know and see a bit more – which does not change their positive attitude towards this place, and even, on the contrary, it allows them to enjoy their advantages better. We believe that it can happen to everyone, so we invite you to read!
When planning a route, check the hours of sunrise and sunset. It is worth waiting for such a spectacle at Hala Gasienicowa, but then you have to quickly come back down – in the high season you can not count on spontaneous accommodation in the shelter without prior reservation.
