Tomaszów Mazowiecki is the town in centre of Poland where tourists both from our country and from abroad are always welcome. Convenient location and well-developed transport enable tourists to arrive even from the most faraway corners. The town is famous not only for sport.
Surroundings of Ice Arena attract tourists because of natural beauty. It can be said that forests in Spała Landscape Park are the green lungs of this region. Niebieskie Źródła Nature Reserve, which lies in the Pilica Valley, causes that Tomaszów stands out from other places. It has been created to protect underground springs that have blueish colour. The reserve is refugium for many species of birds. Depending on weather conditions we can see various shades of green sand. Water that flows out from calcareous springs absorbs red rays and reflects blue and green rays from the bottom. Consequently, we can observe various hues of green colour.
Nearby there is the open-air museum of the Pilica River which is the first museum of this kind in Poland that presents environment of this river. We can observe here objects that are unique not only because of their history but also architecture. Exhibit items are selected into units: “Water flour-milling in the Pilica river-basin”, “War trophies of Pilica”, “The axis of Pilica”, “Mementos from the past time of Spała” and “Folk rowing and boatbuilding”.
