The diversity of culture and architecture in Poland is amazing; I didn’t know that this country was so beautiful until I came and saw for myself ?

Nice Church in Tarnobrzek run by Dominikaner-Monks. The priest surprised me with his enthusiastic and engaging speech which was very refreshing and surprising for Poland and even I as a non native Polish-speaker was “infected”by his preaching.

Manarola

Manarola is a small town, a frazione of the comune of Riomaggiore. It is the second-smallest of the famous Cinque Terre towns frequented by tourists, with a population of 353.

Manarola may be the oldest of the towns in the Cinque Terre, with the cornerstone of the church, San Lorenzo, dating from 1338. The local dialect is Manarolese, which is marginally different from the dialects in the nearby area. The name 'Manarola' is probably a dialectical evolution of the Latin, 'magna rota'. In the Manarolese dialect this was changed to 'magna roea' which means 'large wheel', in reference to the mill wheel in the town.

Manarola's primary industries have traditionally been fishing and wine-making. The local wine, called Sciacchetrà, is especially renowned; references from Roman writings mention the high quality of the wine produced in the region.
