Gorlice is a nearly 26,000-strong town in Malopolska province located on the northern border of the Beskid Niski in the valley of the Ropa and Sekowka rivers. It is a beautifully located town with an unusually rich history. Due to the pharmacist and entrepreneur associated with the city and the inventor of the kerosene lamp, Ignacy Lukasiewicz, it is called the city of light.
There are many interesting attractions and tourist trails in Gorlice. Particularly noteworthy are Gorlice's market square, town hall and the Ignacy Lukasiewicz PTTK Regional Museum with collections related to the history of the city. There you can also see a chapel with a statue of Sorrowful Jesus indicating the exact place where the first street kerosene lamp was lit for the first time in the world, in 1854. Also worth a visit is the Open Air Museum of Oil Industry "Magdalena" located on the site of a former oil mine. Gorlice is also home to numerous cemeteries, especially from World War I, as it was in this area that intense fighting took place in 1915, which on May 2 allowed the Russian front to break through and significantly changed the course of the war.
Gorlice can be reached by both train and bus from the largest cities of Malopolska and Podkarpacie, but also from nearby smaller towns. International bus services to many European cities, including Germany, France and Italy, also stop at the PKS station. On the other hand, a train between Kraków and Zagórz passes through the Gorlice Zagórzany station.
.Brussels is one of Europe's most interesting cities. Firstly, because of its history, and secondly, because of the importance it gained after the end of the Second World War, as from 1958 the Belgian capital was the headquarters of the European Economic Community, and in 1967 the headquarters of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) was also moved there.
You can get to and from Brussels, among others, by Sindbad coaches. Our buses stop on Boulevard Pacheco in front of Bruxelles Congres. From there it is close to the Brussels-North railroad station, for example.
Brussels is a large city, as evidenced by the number of extensive parks and the number of monuments the city offers. Noteworthy are the Royal Palace, the Grand Place and the Brussels Park.
There are a large number of museums in the city, including the Belgian Comic Strip Center, Europe's most famous comic strip museum, where you'll learn about the entire process of creating comic strips such as the Smurfs.
If you decide to take a trip to Brussels with our lines, it's worth knowing that the Belgian capital has four metro lines and! Two lines of the premetro, which is a kind of underground tramway.
If, on the other hand, you decide to get around the city by rental car, remember that Brussels has one of the highest shares of main roads, where the speed limit is sometimes less than 70%. Therefore, driving in the city can be frustrating.
