I`ve heard that women are walking around foutain and are kissing these frogs. Why?
VT member magor65 has written about the legend of the frogs. Here is the link to magor65's page. http://members.virtualtourist.com/m/p/m/242205/
Nice story. It reminds me of the Pied Pier of Hamelin, with a better ending. :)
As for kissing frogs, in the old days girls dreamed of meeting Prince Charming... There was a fairy tale where a Princess kissed a frog... who turned into a Prince! They lived happily ever after hahaha!
Now the saying goes "You have to kiss a whole lot of frogs before you meet Prince Charming!"
Meantime, women's liberation is leaving a lot of frogs in the pond...
I love your reply :)!

There are many young people in Torun, becouse of that city looks young and fresh, although it has 1000 years long history. They are beautiful and friendly people - a part of Toruns beauty. They are local inhabitans and students from other cities (and countries) who study in Torun. Torun is the city of students, you know.
Somebody can ask, there are many cafes and bars in Torun and many tourists in summer time who drink beer there, but who drinks beer, who visits these bars in winter?
Ofcourse they are students.
Maybe there is no so many tourists in winter as it is in summer in Torun. And these bars, cafes, pubs can exist thanks students studing in Torun, at least in winter time:)
Torun is a city of culture. Active cultural life in Torun is a part of city life.
Different music festivals and concerts, international film festival - Filmowe Lato (The Film Summer), performances, art exhibitions are going there.
There are going concerts of differend Polish as foreign stars and known bands. Different music styles you can listen there - jazz, pop, rock, hip hop, r'n'b, punk etc. Also are popular free concerts of church, organ music in local churches.
If you don't visit a speedway match when in Poland, then you haven't been to Poland! You just should try it if you have not yet done. To experience the atmosphere on spot is quite fascinating. Torun lost the finals against Leszno in 2007, but won the finals against the same antagonists in 2008, so to watch speedway in Torun is a great opportunity.
The NCU occupies a broad local base - almost 60 buildings are situated on the central academic campus, and others are located elsewhere in the city and its vicinity. I started my Torun tour at the central academic campus located in a district called "Bielany", approx. 3 km (2 miles) northwest of Torun old city.
