Centennial Hall - a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Wrocław and an ultimate must-see

If you come to Wrocław, there is one place you have to visit (apart of Rynek, of course), a must-see number one - a modernist Hala Stulecia, designed by a German architect Max Berg.
The Centennial Hall (Hala Stulecia) is the most interesting historic monument of Wrocław, and highly recommended not only for architecture fans.

Building over 100 years ago, Hala Stulecia is not only a museum - it is still used for various events: sport games, concerts, operas, fairs. It's worth seeing its magnificent dome inside, so use every opportunity to take a look inside. 

Visiting Hala Stulecia is not only about visiting the building itself, but enjoying the whole area, which is full of attractions.
There is a biggest fountain in Poland, which you can see 'dancing' on the hour. There are special fountain shows as well, usually in the evening.

The fountain is surrounded by Pergola. Hala area is an ideal place to chill out on the grass, or spend a few hours riding a bike in Szczytnicki Park.

And most importantly, there's a beautiful Japanese Garden vis-à-vis the Hall.

 
A visit to the Centennial Hall can be accompanied by sightseeing WUWA exhibition, or Wrocław zoo, which are both situated nearby. Basically, you can spend a whole day in this part of the city.

Getting to the Hala Stulecia is pretty easy - the stop is called "Hala Stulecia". At the moment part of Curie-Skłodowskiej street is closed due to a renovation, so it might be necessary to change to a bus, but do not get discouraged by this small obstacle. Just check the route on jakdojade.pl

Getting off at Plac Grunwaldzki and having a 15 minutes walk across Zwierzyniecki bridge (in my opinion - the most beautiful bridge in Wrocław) is also an option. 

An important notice: during communism Hala Stulecia was called Hala Ludowa. You can still come across this name, or hear people using it, so do not get confused.
