Neon Side Gallery

The inhabitants of this city positively adore neon lights and so do we!  Wherever you stroll, they are everywhere, in the gyms, pizzerias, hotels and fashion stores.

 

To admire a unique collection of neon lights at dusk, go to the following address:  "Ruska 46c" where the old neon Reklama factory is located. We owe the idea of reclaiming and restoring the various abandoned neon lights of the city to Tomasz Kosmalski, a young citizen of Wroclaw.  So, come and discover this wonderful place from 9pm to 10pm and enjoy the show!
