Szczecin Poland
Szczecin (Stettin) Poland, 13-14 July 2019
You see 10-12 letter words in Poland with 2-3 vowels in it. Wondering how to read? It's not difficult because some of the letters can be read aloud with signs. Poland has entered the European Union, but Polish people are still using Zloty for its own money. Nowadays 1 € = 4.27 Zyloty, life here is relatively cheap.
Szczecin is a Polish city 30-km from the German east border. In fact, it was a German city called Stettin with a population of 200,000 until 1945. After Hamburg and Bremen, city was the 3rd largest port city, and it was the headquarter of the German east front during World War II. Big battle ships were built here. After the end of the second world war, with the Potsdam agreement, this region is left to the Polish territory. The German population was removed from the city and the population of Eastern Poland was settled in the vacated city. Today the city of Szczecin is a university city with shipyard port and industrial plants with a population of 400-thousand. The last three hundred years of German Prussian traces have been completely erased. There were not many buildings left as a result of the second world war bombings and the whole city has been renovated with a new city planning.
City has National Museum, Philharmonic Building, Opera house, Shipyard port. Along the river, there are promenade places to walk late at night. Until midnight, young people in university age gather around this river and socialize and drink a lot. There are many universities in the city, so many young students
The NATO Eastern European Command is here. Conversations on the streets are mostly Polish, Russian and English. During the reign of Polish Pope John Paul II, the Vatican sent good money, the old Catholic churches were renovated, and new ones were built. Churches all full during Sunday services. Do students have much interest?
I don't know, but families come a lot.
The churches are made of dark brown color bricks and very high. The city plan is very smooth, no tall buildings. Public transport is carried out by trams.
Streets are wide and there are many roundabouts. Traffic lights are regular, it is imperative to comply, because it is too dangereous not to.
Since the old classical German design concert hall collapsed during the 1945 bombardment, Poles built a new architectural design iceberg-shaped philharmonic hall, the white building looks like an iceberg.
In July 2019 in the Philharmonic, there is internal maintenance-renovation inside so it is closed.
The opera house is a classical building, "Paliagi" and "masquerade ball " operas are in the repertoire of this year, it is closed during summer period opera holiday.
In 1934, the Germans built a highway to their third largest port city, which was called Stettin at the time. You come from a 150-km straight 2+2 lane road. Traffic signs in Germany call it Stettin (Szczecin). In the last 27km you see the border buildings that are no longer in use, then you arrive in Szczecin.
We stayed at the Hotel Vulkan, close to the outskirts of the city, it was a large, comfortable, large space, the price was very reasonable, it was just far from the city center, we had our car, not worry. In the morning we had a rich breakfast buffet. There were parking meters on all streets, but they were not working on Sunday. We parked in a side street at the city center and visited the city on foot. We sat at a nice cafe above the median, gave a break.
In the evening we returned to Berlin from the highway again. In the autumn, we plan to come here again for the weekend and go to opera and philharmonic concerts, and maybe more walk along the river and visit museums.
In Poland there is an anti-immigration foreign policy, so there are not many African, Middle Eastern people around, only those who are young students. The German border is open, but there is no way for the immigrants to live in Poland.
Your author also examined the energy generation situation of the city. Around the city, there is a domestic coal and urban waste burning thermal power plants that generates 134Mwe and 70 Mwe. Environmental equipment with sufficient capacity dust filters ESP and flue gas desulphurisation FGDs are added. It is very easy to find the plants with google map already being noticed by the chimneys that appear remotely.
