You Are Here – Wroclaw

Posted on

Starbucks You Are Here – Wrocław has also been released past weekend. It makes it the fifth Poland YAH (not counting the Christmas version). Is it me or the latest YAHs are all pretty nice looking, at least the colors used are brighter? I think this is great, it means the designers are still investing time and effort into the You Are Here Collection, even though it is set to be phased out.
Wrocław is the largest city in the historical region of Silesia and is located on the banks of the River Oder.… Read more

YAH mugs are still in demand in Europe. Brand new release, Starbucks You Are Here Krakow is another example.

– St. Mary’s Basilica – one of the best examples of Polish Gothic architecture. Probably the most interesting detail here – its towers are of a different design and height.
– Kraków Barbican – a fortified outpost once connected to the city walls
