Wroclaw still remains mostly undiscovered to travelers. It's the largest city and capital of Lower Silesian Voivodeship. It is also a historical capital of Silesia with a very rich history. The city's population is around 630,000 and there are over a million people in the metropolitan area. It's the fourth largest city in Poland and has an economy that is centered around manufacturing, banking, industry, tourism, and cultural events. The area has some unique architecture, beautiful rivers, and a vibrant cultural scene. The city has witnessed much turmoil, particularly during World War II and the years following. Today it has been beautifully restored and should be considered a highlight of a trip to Poland. Now is the time to visit, because as Poland gains ground within Europe, prices are sure to rise and the crowds will discover this city.
Wroclaw is generally warmer than most cities in Poland. The coldest month is January when temperatures average around freezing and snow is common. The warmest month is July when temperatures average 20 degrees Celsius.

Wroclaw is divided into five boroughs. As a tourist, you'll be most interested in the areas that are located near the center of town, although there are some attractions that are found further out. Stare Miasto is the commercial and tourist heart of the city. It is the city's Old Town and has many attractions and cultural events. Srodmiescie is where Ostrow Tumski is. This is a series of beautiful islands that have cobblestoned streets and nice parks. Psie Pole is the northern borough. It has predominantly residential and industrial buildings with little to offer tourists. Krzyki is mostly a residential borough that has the city's main rail and bus transportation centers. Fabryczna is in the western part of the city. It was originally an industrial area but today it is a quiet part of town with the city's main sports stadium as well as the international airport.
To manage your travel budget, it's important to set realistic expectations. Many people think they can visit Wroclaw on a cheap budget, but most don't enjoy the limitations of a tight shoestring budget. Consider how you like to travel. Do you enjoy hostels, resorts, hotels, or vacation rentals? Do you want to dine out and explore the major attractions? These decisions will determine your budget and itinerary.

Wroclaw has plenty of hostels available, like Hostel Wratislavia, Mleczarnia Hostel, and Rynek 30 Hostel. Here, you can enjoy low-cost dorm lodging and a vibrant social environment, though amenities might be minimal.
Could You Be an Average Traveler?

Many visitors to Wroclaw are keen to visit the prominent attractions, museums, sights, and landmarks. Most activities cost money, after all. Therefore, it's realistic to expect your actual daily budget to be closer to $42 per person, per day.
