The Warsaw map with sights abounds with numerous palaces and castles. Check out the famous King's Castle, which was restored after World War II (there is a museum of coins and carpets inside).
Take a tour of the Belvedere Palace (admission is free), which together with the Presidential Palace is now the official residence of the Polish President.
Picture the tallest building in Poland — Palace of Culture and Science, built by Soviet builders as a gift to the friendly nation. It is a spectacular 42-story building 230 meters tall.
Visit museums devoted to history, art, literature, religion. The Chopin Museum is of great interest to visitors. It is located in the Ostrogsky Castle. The room, equipped with modern multimedia, houses not only the great composer's belongings, but also presents Warsaw of Chopin's times and its sights.
Photos taken on the museum grounds will forever preserve the memory of this romantic atmosphere. Admission to the museum is free on Wednesdays (on other days — 25 PLN).
Be sure to visit the science centers, which are fascinating for both adults and children. The most famous is the Copernicus Science Centre, where visitors can carry out exciting scientific experiments on their own and explore space, the center of a volcano, or the ocean floor.
If you have a map of Warsaw’s landmarks, look for Wybrzeże Kościuszkowskie Street, 20 — the center is located at this address. It’s open every day except Monday. A regular ticket costs 46 PLN. Tickets must be purchased online in advance, and reservations are required — the museum monitors visitor comfort and sells time-slot tickets.
While exploring Warsaw’s attractions, you won’t remain indifferent to its many religious landmarks. These include the Church of St. Casimir, the Field Cathedral of the Polish Army, the Church of St. Hyacinth, and the Basilica of the Sacred Heart of Jesus.
When listing all the attractions of Warsaw by name, one must also mention its local parks. For example, the Royal Łazienki is considered the most beautiful park in the capital.
You can see Warsaw from a bird's-eye view from the Warsaw Uprising Mound, the year-round ski slope "Szczęśliwice," and, of course, from the highest building in Poland, the observation deck of the Palace of Culture and Science (entrance fee required, open during the day and night).
