I'll stick to the south of Poland to make it a fair comparison against Andalucia as a region. Some recent trips I've done:
>Bieszczady Mountains
A rare wilderness in Europe; the 'tail' of Poland in the southeast where the UA, PL and SK borders meet. You can properly get lost here. A rare minority live down here called the Rusyns/Lemkos/Hutsuls, and they have their own thing going on.
Enter via the town of Sanok, where you can find the main exhibition of the painter Beksinksi.
>Trail of the Eagles Nests & Bledow Desert
A national park containing 25 castles in beautiful scenery. There's even a desert down the south of it.
Amazing for cycling.
>Silesia Industrial Heritage
Silesia is the industrial heartland of Poland, and is like 15 towns/cities which have grown into each other and all have a slightly different feel. The place is full of breweries, mines, factories, etc which have been converted into museums or sites for activities. Some oof my funnest getaways have been getting random triains and ubers to shithole industrial towns, doing an activity like checking out a mine, or doing a brewery workshop, then getting smashed in random bars after, where they 0% expect foreigners to rock up to.
>Bochnia/Wieliczka salt mines
World famous destinations. The scale of Wieliczka is fucking insane. They also offer more alternative tours and activities very far underground.
>Spas
Lots of spa towns in the south of Poland where you can do shit like swim outside in naturally heated pools in freezing temperatures outside, or be ina sauna naked with 50 other people watching a ritualistic dance overlooking the mountains, etc.
Hope that gives a little insight of Poland beyond the squares :)Would post links, but 4chan doesn't seem to like lots of links in a single post.
