The ambitious post-industrial city of Łódź, the third-largest in Poland, is in a rapid state of transformation. It combines renovation of industrial spaces with bold architectural projects: former factories and other spaces are being transformed into cultural, shopping and entertainment areas. Łódź’s EC1 complex continues to take shape and already has a new planetarium, a huge new science and technology centre and a range of exhibition spaces. The Manufaktura shopping and entertainment area is home to the MS2 Museum of Art, a zip line and an artificial beach. And don’t miss the remarkable Fabryczna railway station, a work of art with trains.
