In Wroclaw City, Poland. Surprise, surprise surprise! Visited Poland from 25th September to 3 October 2018 and what a beautiful and historic country. While there I visited and shopped in this Mall. It's bigger than any mall in Regina. The most interesting of this experience is that most prices of stuff on display for sell! When you live in North America you tend to believe that the world begins and ends in the region. This is definitely a wrong notion. Poland is huge on green technology and environmental conservation. The emphasis and drive towards modern renewal are tailored towards maintaining healthy living. Due to progressive modern urban transportation system and planning that lay emphasis and encourages biking most citizens are physically trim and healthy. There are virtually biking and pedestrian pathways in virtually every street in the city. Evidence of successful urban renewal and a booming economy is seen in the numerous gigantic construction sites littered in the city. Most of the cars unlike what obtained in North America are small and energy efficient hybrid cars. Hardly does one see any truck or big SUVs as common in Canada and USA. Most of the electrical lights in both public buildings and private residential blocks are motion sensors for conservation of energy! The typical North American rat race syndrome is virtually absent. Though the country may not be as rich as Canada or USA yet the citizens seem milder and contented with their socio-economic status. Crime rate is kept at the barest level while violent crime, especially gun violence is a rarity. The only downside I noticed is that most people still smoke. Smoking seems to be popular and cool. Worse is that there seems to be no smoking regulations put in place to shield non smokers from secondary smoke inhaling especially in public buildings and spaces. Although intra-city driving is crazy as most traffic rules are ignored by motorists, yet I didn't witness any road rages.
