POINTS OF INTEREST

 

There are many interesting places in Poland worth visiting. Each province has its own unique history. Please take a moment to read about few places that MUST be visited upon trip to Poland: 

  • Warsaw in Mazowieckie province - that is the capital and the largest city of Poland. The obligatory point of this trip should be the visit at the Warsaw Old Town [Starówka]. Razed to the ground during the II World War, the Old Town was rebuilt to match its pre-war look as closely as it was possible, and now it is listed as a point in the World Culture and Natural Heritage List of UNESCO. There are also many precious buildings which remained after the War without significant damages, such as the Palace in Wilanów (the summer residence of the king Jan III Sobieski, who held back the invasion of the Turks in Europe in XVIIth c.), the Presidential Palace at the stylishly redecorated Krakowskie Przedmieście,the Royal Castle with the palaces in Łazienki and Wilanów. Want more impressions? Go to the old part of Praga, with the unique climate of Warsaw where many tenements houses remember the times before the War. The foreign guest may be interested in the socialist realism remains: the Marszałkowska Dzielnica Mieszkaniowa (MDM), or the blocks near East Train Station [Dworzec Wschodni]. And if you want to watch the capital city’s panorama, you should do it on the highest level of the Palace of Culture and Science which, like the Eiffel Tower, is visible from almost every place in Warsaw
