As you know, we recently visited Katowice, where we had a mini meeting. And also apart from this meeting, a few days later we also managed to meet with an extremely extraordinary personality. And that personality is @hallmann. This unusual person is the owner of a creative space called Królestwo Bez Kresu. This creative place is hidden in a house on one of the streets of beautiful Krakow. This place is not just a place for meetings, it is a territory, the design of which is incredibly many different ancient, unusual and sometimes strange things. There are so many interesting chips that you won't be able to see them all! Well, let's begin our tour of this wonder. Immediately after the meeting in Katowice, we wanted to visit Krakow. Arriving there, we learned that in addition to Krakow itself, there is this unusual organization. And here we are! When you enter the first door in the entrance, you immediately find yourself in @krolestwo, which is completely Królestwo Beż Kresu. Maybe you ask why this name? This is a very interesting story! We learned from the owner that this name comes from a Ukrainian poet (forgive me, I don't remember the name 😭). @hallmann really like his poems and one of them had that exact title and that's where it came from.
This place was created to meet creative and extraordinary people, both from Hive and beyond. And when we came here, we really saw very different and wonderful people here. Entering this room, you seem to be transported to another world, a world unlike any other. Here everything was done piece by piece and by the efforts of one person. As you enter, you see a beautiful hall with two antique tables and candles on them. It is especially nice when you come in the evening. A cozy evening atmosphere fills the entire room. Looking to the left along the entire wall you can see pasted bills from different countries. Looking at them, you can see exclusive multi-colored bills with drawings from different cultures. In this money you can see the beauty and diversity of all countries. Moving further down the room on the right side, a picture of a battle from the Middle Ages is shown. And in the middle something like "Królestwa is still not visible" is written. The thing is that, unfortunately, for some reason Google Maps does not show Królestwo. It seems that they have already officially registered this place on the maps, but for some reason, when you go to the maps, you cannot see it. I really hope they will fix this problem soon. Also in this large hall you can see books, cups, etc.
Next comes the kitchen. In the kitchen, there are various unusual drinks such as kvass from kombucha, karkade. I had never tried karkade before in my life, and surprisingly I liked it! The kitchen has a very authentic design with retro style dishes and all the furniture.
The kitchen opens onto a corridor in which there is a toilet. But the toilet here is not simple, it is called a "museum of crimes". This idea just struck me. On the walls of the toilet hang photos of thieves from all over the world, paintings that were stolen and also objects. And here's a photo of none other than Justin Sun. Several pictures have already been stolen from this place, so there is a sign here with the inscription "Thief, please return the tablet."
There is also a closet in the kitchen. And from this closet, everything interesting begins. It looks like an ordinary closet, but if you look inside, there will be more than just some clothes. From there, through a secret entrance, you can get into another room that is very well encrypted. Behind a small curtain opens a very wide room with a table made of a suitcase. There is a red sofa by the wall, and a toy tiger and a computer mouse are lying on the sofa. We asked why it was here and @hallman said "the cat catches the mouse" haha. This is very creative 😆.

There are also two additional chairs for sitting at the table. And by the window there is a very cool and atmospheric rocking chair. Shelves with books and various paintings are attached to the walls. For lighting, there is a garland on the shelves that creates a wonderful atmosphere. In the middle of the room there is a huge gaming table.
Next to another large window lay a gramophone, which looked very stately. And by the way, to my surprise, he was working. Just as rarely, there was a retro phone not far from the gramophone. But he certainly didn't work anymore.
There were several @hallman guitars on the bedside table near the sofa, one of which was in knights' armor, by the way, also created by him. And by the way, we had the honor of hearing a unique private concert in a space created by ourselves. By the way, this performance was simply fascinating, I have never heard such wonderful singing to the guitar. All in all it was a great visit to this beautiful place. Thanks @hallmann for this opportunity!
By the way, after we had a meetup in Katowice, and also with @hallman we constantly decided to visit hivefest!
Bye bye everyone!! 🎸☎️
