There are many places in Wroclaw where you can have a professional photo session, as well as crazy photos for social media. There are many nicely kept parks, atmospheric squares and intimate streets.
Romantic bridges and riverside boulevards create a unique atmosphere. Many people organize photo sessions at Wrocław's viewpoints. Where exactly should you go with your camera? Here are some interesting suggestions.
Attractions around Szczytnicki Park
Szczytnicki Park is one of the most beautiful parks in Wrocław. The background for romantic photos will be the bridges on the pond and the park gazebos. In spring, it is worth going to the so-called Sakura Avenue, where fruit trees bloom. The facilities near the park are equally interesting, such as:
Pergola,
multimedia fountain at the Four Domes Pavilion,
Japanese Garden.
These places look beautiful in spring, summer, and autumn, when the leaves change color beautifully. If you have the opportunity, take photos at different times of the year and compare them. You will collect material for an interesting vernissage or a home photography exhibition.
Interesting interiors and original objects
Have you planned a photo session, but the downpour has ruined your plans? There are buildings in Wrocław with interesting interiors, perfect for original photos. Check out these suggestions:
- staircase in the Sachs tenement house at Teatralny Square,
- Aula Leopoldina and Oratorium Marianum of the University of Wrocław,
- interiors of the National Museum in Wrocław,
- interiors of the Museum of Contemporary Art.
Capture the Odra in photos
This river adds charm to the city. The numerous islands and islets, canals and side tributaries, ship ports and larger and smaller bridges are breathtaking. All this makes Wrocław look romantic, mysterious and sometimes even magical. The most interesting places for photos on the Oder are:
- promenade near the buildings of the Wrocław University of Science and Technology,
- Dunikowski Boulevard,
- Piaskowa Footbridge from Słodowa Island to Piasek Island,
- Tumski Bridge between Ostrów Tumski and Piasek Island,
- Swan Beach on Bielarska Island.
Unique places in Wrocław. Murals, neon signs and "Italian" streets
Although Wrocław is primarily associated with the City Hall, the picturesque Market Square and the islands on the Oder, there are many original places here. These include the courtyard at Ruska Street 46, lit with old neon lights, called the Neon Side Gallery. It is a great place for evening photos. It is also worth taking pictures of the Wrocław murals on the facades of old tenement houses in the Nadodrze district. Also noteworthy are the intimate streets that resemble the streets of Tuscan towns. You will find such atmospheres on the streets of Jatki, Garbary and Kiełbaśnicza.
Photos with the city panorama in the background
There are several viewpoints in Wrocław, and each of them offers a slightly different panorama of the city. Here are the most interesting viewing terraces in Wrocław:
- The Penitents' Bridge between the towers of the Cathedral of St. Mary Magdalene, with a charming panorama of the Old Town,
- terrace on the tower of the Archcathedral of St. John the Baptist with a view of Ostrów Tumski, neighboring islands and the Odra River floodplains,
- the highest observation deck in Poland, located on the 49th floor of the Sky Tower skyscraper.
The view from the Sky Tower is the most impressive. From here you can see not only the entire city, but also part of Lower Silesia, and with good visibility even the Karkonosze Mountains. Although the time spent on the terrace is limited, the building has comfortable apartments for accommodation. That is why it is worth booking stay at Sky Tower and organize a private photo session against the background of the evening panorama of the city.
