Introducing Warsaw


Warsaw's old city and squares are so awe-inspiring that you will forget just how much history was lost in the war. But it goes to show how well the city has been rebuilt. Everywhere you go in Warsaw, you will see the city's past in its monuments, squares, and extraordinary buildings. Compositions of the famous Polish composer Chopin play regularly in museums, palaces, and art galleries. Restaurants and cafés feature traditional dishes, which are a fusion of Polish, Jewish, and neighboring countries' cuisines.

Warsaw is known for:
