Poland Is Removing Flashy Ads And Banners From The Streets, And Suddenly The Cities Look Much More Aesthetic (20 Pics)

Published 4 years ago

There’s nothing that ruins a beautiful city panorama faster than a bunch of flashy, colorful ads that clash with the surroundings. Realizing that, the Polish city of Gdańsk, along with Warsaw and a few other cities, are slowly getting rid of these eyesores thanks to the local and national versions of the Landscape Protection Act. And there’s a whole Facebook page dedicated to documenting the process.

The Facebook page in question is named Pogromcy Reklamozy (translating to Advertising Busters), and it regularly shares pictures of buildings before and after the ugly ad and billboard removal. Not only that – the page also calls out any illegal ads that its fans manage to spot, ensuring that the Polish cities slowly, yet surely, become almost entirely free of annoying advertisements.

Check out some of the best before and after pics shared by Pogromcy Reklamozy in the gallery below!

Aušrys Uptas

One day, this guy just kind of figured - "I spend most of my time on the internet anyway, why not turn it into a profession?" - and he did! Now he not only gets to browse the latest cat videos and fresh memes every day but also shares them with people all over the world, making sure they stay up to date with everything that's trending on the web. Some things that always pique his interest are old technologies, literature and all sorts of odd vintage goodness. So if you find something that's too bizarre not to share, make sure to hit him up!

Got wisdom to pour?
