He showed what Zakopane looks like today. The comments are a storm. “It’s ceasing to be Polish”

Most of us are happy that Poland is becoming increasingly popular among foreign tourists. However, some see this phenomenon as a threat. This is reminded by the discussion that was started by one of the stories on TikTok. It concerned Zakopane and adapting the offer to guests from Arab countries.

Zakopane holds a special place in the hearts of many Poles. In recent years, the capital of Podhale has also been appreciated by residents of countries such as the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Oman. Zakopane enjoys great popularity among them. The town has become fashionable there, which is why there are more and more tourists from Arab countries. In addition, they have also started to discover other regions of our country. This year, they are also eager to go to the Polish seaside, among others.

The topic of Arab tourists in Podhale arouses considerable emotion. Of course, most Poles are happy that our country is becoming increasingly popular abroad. However, there are also those who see dangers in the phenomenon. Recently, one of the TikTok users showed what Zakopane currently looks like. We can see there, among other things, advertisements in Arabic.

“There are customers, this is the menu”

The report on TikTok sparked a heated discussion. Among other things, there were voices that Zakopane… is ceasing to be Polish. Some also began to link the development of tourism with the EU migration pact. Fortunately, people who sensibly explained the new phenomenon also spoke up. “There are customers, so there is a menu in their language. Where many Poles go on vacation, there are also menus in Polish sometimes”, “in Slovakia, Croatia and Hungary there are also restaurants with menus in Polish” – we read in the comments section.

Others began to praise the ingenuity and commitment of the sellers and restaurateurs. “Very nice, I appreciate the effort of the restaurateurs and their employees”, “There is demand, so there is supply. Is there something strange about the way the market works?” – we can read under the post.
