Warsaw
The new Manhattan, as Warsaw is affectionately known by visitors, is attracting more and more city travellers. No wonder, because the location of the Polish capital on the Vistula is extremely picturesque. In Warsaw, it is best to rely on your intuition. Perhaps you are fascinated by the architecture of socialist realism or feel most at home in the neighbourhood of old tenement houses, perhaps you love modern museums that tell stories or small places where you can find out more about what the locals like to do in their free time. Warsaw has it all - you just have to know what you like best!
Highlights
-
The strength of this metropolis of 2 million lies in its incredible contrasts - at one crossroads you will find gloomy socialist-realist buildings, glass skyscrapers from the age of predatory capitalism and the remains of pre-war tenements. It is a big city, but what not everyone realises is that it is also green and very diverse. Like few other cities, it can surprise and reward you if you dare to stray from the beaten track.
-
The most important sights are located in the western part of Warsaw, which is easily recognisable thanks to the Vistula. The Old Town is centred around the prestigious Castle Square and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1980. The Royal Castle Square is the historical centre of Warsaw and a fascinating place to experience the city's history. It is home to the impressive Royal Castle, which was built in the Baroque style and now serves as a museum.

You will be amazed by the skyline of Warsaw. As the nickname ‘the new Manhattan’ suggests, the city is an architectural masterpiece. The postmodern buildings and their immense height will amaze you.
