pillaged and rebuilt again many, many times throughout the ages. 5, i'll also occupies a very important role in the imagination of many post children. here's why. so we're going to sit down and take a little break and part of the same as the apple of castle. and i'm going to take a moment to tell you guys the story. so when i was a little kid, my grandma always is to tell me that if i was no tea, she would send me the cockle so that i would get eaten by the driving. so once upon a time, the people of cockles lift happily in wealth and prosperity bots. suddenly one day a dragon came into town and decided to make his den right here under the castle that made everybody unhappy and fearful. so naturally the king decided to look for a knights who would come in and slay the dragon. but no matter how many nights tried to slay the dragon, nobody managed it. until one day the king go to visit from a little shoemaker. so what zillow she making did was he got a sheep skin,

he put some silver and he put some finest out to inside the sheep skin and he left it just outside of the drag. and then so the next morning when the dragon came out to have his breakfast, he thought, oh, perfect, a sheep. he ate the sheep and the bias started inside his belly. so he flew straight into the river and he started drinking from the river and drag. so much water to try and put out the fire in his belly that he eventually exploded. and that is how the little shoemaker slaves the dragon of the bible castle. well, now that you've had arguably the most formative legend in the polar psyche, let's move on to our next destination. from the bible castle, you can take a nice and relax, stroll along the same river. the dragon drank from the village to lie. this is the longest river in poland and it runs through some of the country's best known cities crackles, of course, but also were so good that after 15 minutes and

a couple of swims they to, we 10 of inland again to the neighborhood of caching is because he is probably my favorite neighborhood in all of poland, so it's actually the old historic jewish neighborhood. it was the heart of the local jewish community for 500 years. and one of the most important centers, the jewish culture and all of this. and is the dissertation extermination of cost of jews by the during the 2nd, the story of congress, jews, and their tragic fate is shown in the movie. sions is this some of which was filmed on these very st. there's a lot of history here. a lot of hidden corn is really beautiful architect. uh, but today i would say that because, you know, shes less than a 100 for how do you see, you know, you can kind of walk around here and get lost, find too little hit. and cassie's lovely boutiques and great restaurants that we're going to take a little tour and then we're going to finish off with neil. and one of my favorite

restaurants in the entire city is go so one of the things that i've noticed about crack of so far is that pretty much every single place has been to, has been really dog friendly, which just makes it so much easier to travel with a dog. oh, you think we ever got some water. thank on the take these out. if you have a dog, you'll understand how i feel right now. oh my god. oh my god. yeah. gorgeous. it's so beautiful. and i good the oh my gosh. yeah. i think that's the us before we go to do, now,
