Tips from the Community
Today was my first time visiting this place. We waited less than 12 minutes for our pizza, and the prices were around 42-44 PLN (33 cm diameter), depending on the type. The dough was nicely risen, and there were plenty of toppings, so the three of us struggled to finish two pizzas. A quiet place, with quiet music in the background. The spacious space is located in the basement of the building, below street level, so there's less outside noise. The name "Oliwki 3" might suggest to someone from outside the city that it's located at number 3 Oliwki Street, but there's no such street nearby. 😀 WW

The graduation tower is open to the public during opening hours on the grounds of the State University of Sanok. It is a single, wide column, standing between two university buildings. Next to the tower are benches and an information board with the terms and conditions of use (see photos). The board states that the graduation tower is activated by pressing a button located below the board, and that the recommended inhalation time is 45-60 minutes. WW

Homemade ice cream made in Sanok, several unusual flavours: sweet, salty or sour, see photos. Scoop 8 PLN, sugar cone 1.50 PLN. I ordered gingerbread and summer party ice cream - the latter with a hint of sourness, I can recommend both. The ice cream shop is open from 9:00 to 20:00 in the season, and in the case of a cloudy morning from 10:00. There are a few chairs to the left of the building. It is best to come here on foot, because parking at the ice cream shop can be problematic, especially on weekdays. On Saturdays and Sundays, there is no paid parking zone and on these days it is easier to find parking, except for mass hours in the nearby parish church. My jaw dropped when I looked at the receipt - the company is called "SZLAGPOL" 😮 I wouldn't call my company that 🤔, but the name makes sense here - the owner is Piotr Szlaga. 😀 WW

The monument commemorates the launching of the MS Sanok general cargo ship in 1966. The ship was 99.5 m long, had a deadweight tonnage of 3,015 DWT, served in the years 1966-1987 and was owned by Polskie Linie Oceaniczne. The monument with anchors is a very exotic souvenir in Sanok, considering that Sanok is not a seaside city, it does not even have a navigable connection to the sea, like Gliwice has (via the Gliwice Canal and the Oder), where to emphasize this connection and the maritime nature of the city stands the Neptune monument*. 😀 Sanok, located in the remote, south-eastern corner of Poland, is one of the cities located farthest from the Baltic coast. By road from Sanok to the nearest sea coast (Stegna commune) is about 750 km, and to the Black Sea and Adriatic even further. Technical data of the ship based on Wikipedia. https://pl.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/MS_Sanok *) https://gliwice.eu/wizytowka/zabytki/fontanna-z-rzezba-neptuna

In times long past, the Market Square in Sanok was an oasis of greenery in this part of the city. After the change of regime, the trees were cut down, and the Market Square was paved mostly in red, hence its name, Red Square. On hot days, the center of the square is unbearably hot. You can seek refreshment under the umbrellas where ice cream is sold, or by the fountain located closer to City Hall. Even better, stop by the Franciscan Church for a moment and find not only refreshment but also peace. WW

In the 1970s and 1980s, a housing estate was built between Śródmieście Sanok and the San River - a block of four-story buildings. The axes of this estate are Jana Pawła II Street and Traugutta Street. The first one is straight and straight, and the second one winds with gentle curves. At ul. A chapel was built near the Traugutt intersection. On May evenings, residents of nearby blocks gather there, praying together and singing Marian songs.

The stork's nest has been inhabited for years in the same place - on one of the chimneys of a two-story block of flats at ul. Mickiewicza. The busy intersection next to the building apparently doesn't bother the storks as they come back here. They are also not deterred by the artificial bird of prey placed on the adjacent chimney. 😀 WW
