The historical center of Warsaw suffered greatly at the hands of the Nazis. Later, restoration work was carried out, and now the Old Town is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List as an example of successful restoration. The city is divided by the Vistula River into two parts - the majority of interesting attractions and hotels are located on the left bank, while residential areas are situated on the right bank. You will find shops, restaurants, and hotels in the districts of Srodmiescie, Wola, and Mokotow.
To begin your acquaintance with Warsaw, it is worth starting with the gem of the Old Town - the Royal Castle, rebuilt in the 1980s. Other interesting places include Wilanow Palace, Ostrogski Palace, Presidential Palace, Ujazdowski Castle, and Lazienki Palace.
Food enthusiasts will definitely appreciate Polish cuisine! For starters, we recommend flaki - a thick soup made from tripe and vegetables, żurek - a soup with meat and sausage on sourdough, and czernina - a soup made from goose blood with giblets and dried fruits. Popular main dishes include bigos - stewed sauerkraut with meat or sausage, dumplings, and stuffed cabbage rolls. For dessert, Poles enjoy gingerbread, pies with various fillings, and donuts with wild rose jam.

Journey to the birthplace of Chopin
Warsaw is a city with a tragic fate that has experienced considerable destruction, especially during World War II, when it was virtually destroyed. But each time it rose from the ashes like the Phoenix.
Today it is worth visiting Warsaw to see its beautifully restored palace complexes (the city center is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List), tour the many churches, visit the modern Chopin Museum and interactive science centers. There are also picturesque parks, jazz clubs and numerous sports facilities.
