GIRONA

Girona is located in the northeast of Spain, at the foot of the Catalan Mountains, about 33 kilometers west of the Mediterranean coast. It is located in Catalonia, 80 kilometers from its capital, Barcelona, and is a small, atmospheric city full of historic architecture.

What interesting things does Girona offer for visitors? It is best to start your sightseeing from the old town, surrounded by walls that still remember Roman times. The focal point there is the Cathedral of the Blessed Virgin Mary, distinguished by its monumental staircase and Baroque façade, whose interiors represent the Gothic-Romanesque style. The temple boasts the widest nave in the world in terms of Gothic architecture. In addition, the Jewish quarter, El Call, the Arab baths or the Basilica of Sant Feliu, with its historically valuable tombstones and distinctive truncated tower, are also noteworthy.

There are seven museums in Gron. Especially worth a visit is the Archaeological Museum, founded in 1846, with exhibits dating back to the Paleolithic period and later objects excavated in various locations throughout the province. Also noteworthy is the Cathedral's Museum-Temple with an exhibition of sacred art, where the most valuable object is the Tapestry of Creation from 1100.

ZYWIEC

Zywiec is not just a local brewery. It's a city located in the middle of the mountains and full of attractions. That's why check out what to do in Zywiec right now before you check out the beer museum.

What to do once you reach Zywiec by bus

If you are considering an extended stay in or around Zywiec, especially during the holiday season, a trip to Lake Zywiec is a must. It is a reservoir created in 1966. In order for it to be created, several villages had to be depopulated and flooded, including Zarzecza, Tresna, and Stary Zywiec.

In the part of Tresna that was not flooded, a dam and hydroelectric power plant were erected.

Zywiec has a municipal beach, although it still lacks infrastructure. Therefore, plan an outing to the water with your own provisions.

A regatta is organized on the waters of Lake Zywiec in August, a memorial to Adam Banaszek, commander of the Bielsko Yacht Club, who died in 1992 while sailing the "Dar Bielsko".

Zywiec is located in the middle of the Beskid Mountains. The Beskid Zywiec is of course surrounded by it, but right next to it you will also find the Beskid Slaski or Beskid Maly. If you go further south, you can hit the Slovak Beskid, while west of Zywiec is the Silesian-Moravian Beskid. If you're a novice hiker, it's worth climbing Skrzyczne, the highest peak in the Silesian Beskid, which rises more than 1,200 meters above sea level. In Beskid Maly you must climb, if that's the right term, Czupel (just 933 meters above sea level). In Beskid Zywiecki, Babia Gora awaits you with 1,725 meters above sea level, making it the highest peak in the area.

There are several roads leading to the summit. One of them is the Akademiks' Pass. When deciding on this particular route, you need to be aware that it's a one-way road, and before the summit itself you will face a short climb over rocks using chains attached to the rocks. Therefore, if you manifest a fear of heights, you should consider a slightly longer, but easier route.

The city is located in the Zywiec Basin in southern Poland, next to Lake Zywiec. The seat of the Zywiec district government is located here.
