"Words Cant Explain..." Oswiecim by bryINpoland


Oswiecim Travel Guide: 405 reviews and 858 photos

I knew while living in Poland, i had to make a trip down to Oswiecim (Auschwitz). I fortunalty got that chance when i was visiting Cracow. (Krakow)

We heard that there were cheap buses running about every 45 minutes from the main railway station (Glowny) in Cracow, to Auschwitz, about an hour south.

The bus only cost about 10 zloty (about $2.50) one way. Though we met a guy that was trying to get us to pay 129 zloty one way. I guess he thought i was an average American tourist, and not a VT.

The picture of me above is at the camp Birkenau, Auschwitz sister camp that held over 100,000 prisoners . These are the tracks you see in most movies where they would offload all the incoming prisoners...

For more about Aushwitz, visit the following link to my travelogue on Aushwitz AUSHWITZ IN A GLANCE

Caged Like Animals...

The picture to the left is infront of one of the many guard towers that surrounded the Auschwitz camp...
