Syców is a town in Lower Silesia Province in Oleśnic County located about 60 kilometers northeast of Wrocław on the Mill River. The name Syców may derive from the word "Syc" meaning miser, or from the diminutive of the name Sylvester. The earliest mention of Syców dates back to 1276. The greatest contributions to Sycow can be attributed to the Biron family, which ruled the town from 1736 to 1945 and thanks to whom, among other things, Sycow's streets were paved or gas-lit. This family also built an impressive castle, which unfortunately has not survived to the present day.
In the city you can find several remnants of the neo-Gothic castle that once existed here. Impressive is the beautiful city park designed in English style once surrounding the castle, today providing an ideal place for relaxation, where in addition to a pond and beautifully landscaped alleys with natural monuments, you can admire the mausoleum of the Biron family. The best views of the area are offered by the bell tower, once used as the city gate, located adjacent to the Gothic church of Saints Peter and Paul. Another interesting church is the Evangelical Church of the Apostles John and Peter, once part of the Birons' castle complex, now prized for its acoustic qualities. Walking around Syców, one can come across the remains of the 14th and 15th century walls that once surrounded the town, the building of the former synagogue or other buildings that were once part of the Syców castle complex, such as outbuildings and stables.
The S8 Wrocław-Warsaw expressway runs through the municipality of Syców, making the area well connected to the rest of Poland and abroad. Going by car from Wroclaw, Syców can be reached in 30 minutes. The town's train station has been out of service for more than 20 years, and trains do not stop at the Syców train station, but this is expected to change in the coming years. Although the Syców PKS station, located at 1 Kolejowa Street, is now closed, it still serves as the city's transportation center. Coaches Sindbad that travel on domestic and international routes stop there.

Genoa, or Genova in Italian, is a city in the northwest of Italy in the Liguria region. It is famous for its large port on the Ligurian Sea and is the sixth largest city in the country. Genoa's location cascades - walking from the port, it seems to climb higher and higher up the mountain, every now and then providing great places to enjoy the views and take photos. For this reason, in addition to traditional forms of transportation, there are many railroads and elevators to make getting around easier.
What to see in the city? The best place to start is the Old Port with the Galata Aquarium oceanarium and Maritime Museum, and see the Palazzo San Giorgio distinguished by its beautiful facade. A replica of the 17th-century Spanish galleon that starred in Roman Polanski's "Pirates" awaits tourists there. While in Genoa, take a stroll through the narrow streets called caruggi, viewing larger and smaller squares, historic churches and numerous palaces along the way. The most important church in the city is the 12th-century San Lorenzo Cathedral, with its rich collections of sacred art. Along and near Via Garibaldi Street one can find many historic palaces. 42 of them are listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Genoa is also home to a 17th-century reconstruction of the house where Christopher Columbus lived.
Genoa is located at the crossroads of highways - roads from Turin and Milan lead here. Near the city, or more precisely 7 kilometers from its center, there is Christopher Columbus Airport. The main train station is located about one kilometer from the old part of the city. Our buses stop not far from it - at Piazza della Vittoria 30 R summer INPS.
