Bielsko-Biała is a city in Śląskie region, in the Beskidy mountains. It is a result of merging two nieighbor cities Bielsko and Biała. B-B is close to winter sports cities such as Szczyrk. There is also Szyndzielnia mountain reachable with a gondola-railway; you can get to the lower station by a city bus #8. Bielsko-Biała was formerly in the Austrian (later: Austro-Hungarian) part of Poland and there are still many buildings from 19th century and a castle.

The best way to get to Bielsko is from Upper-Silesian aglomeration, to be more precise, from Katowice. There are many long-distance trains, for example Gdynia-Bielsko-Biała or Warszawa-Bielsko-Biała.
