NIDA VALLEY
We set off in the morning to the nearby Swietokrzyskie region, surprising with its cultural richness. We reach the bank of the Nida River, which winds like a ribbon through the green land. We start the canoeing trip through beautiful meanders of the river, which will lead us straight to... a unique castle or a noble manor. In the previous times nobleman welcomed newcomers with delicious mead. We will have the opportunity to taste this local drink later on. And now we are transported... back in time... to have lunch in a restaurant of the time where beautiful ladies and brave knights used to celebrate their court feast.
AT THE NOBLE CASTLE
In the castle restaurant we will recommend traditional dishes of the regional cuisine. Afterwards we will stroll through the grounds of the noble castle. If we are lucky, we might be able to dress up in period costumes and have an unforgettable photo session.
TOKARNIA - ETHNOGRAPHIC PARK
In the afternoon you will travel in time, this time you will witness the traditions of the nineteenth-century Swietokrzyskie village in the Ethnographic Park in Tokarnia.Whitewashed huts, open space, greenery are the perfect place for an idyllic rest away from the crowds of the city, combined with a lesson about our traditions, old rituals and culinary delights.
CHĘCINY
Chęciny Castle is a place that captivates with its majestic history and extraordinary atmosphere. Perched on a high rock, it offers breathtaking views of the surrounding countryside, which are the perfect backdrop for photography. By visiting, you can feel the spirit of the past and immerse yourself in the rich history of the castle, which has witnessed many important events over the centuries. Strolling along its ramparts and underground is like a journey back in time, giving you a better understanding of medieval life.
MEAD TASTING
The perfect end to the "Journey through time" will be a visit and a tasting at the manufacture of mead, a traditional alcoholic beverage created as a result of the fermentation of the wort of bee honey, mostly linden honey. It has been produced and consumed in Poland since the Middle Ages. Since 2008, Polish meads have been registered by the European Commission as a Traditional Speciality Guaranteed. Here, in the evening, we will conclude our culinary and historical journey and set off on our return journey.
