Poland in 5 must-see places

So many beautiful cities in Poland that you don’t know what to choose! We have selected five cities that will show you the different landscapes of Poland.

Warsaw

An old cultural and industrial centre,the city was for a long time one of the most sophisticated capitals of old Europe. But it is a city that has suffered a lot. By the end of world War II, it was nothing more than a pile of ruins. So the Old Town Square or the Warsaw Historical Museum are obligatory steps in visiting a booming city.
We can divide the city into two parts. The western shore, the most attractive, is the one where tourists go. The East is of no particular cultural or historical interest. If you like architecture, history is a city for you. The city’s main thoroughfare, the Royal Way, is lined with palaces, museums and galleries. It is considered one of the most beautiful avenues in Europe.

If you leave 2/3 days and you do not know what to do, we have selected for you 7 must-see places,in addition to those mentioned above.

• The Royal Castle
• The Wilan-w Palace
• The Frédéric Chopin Museum
• The Palace of Culture and Science
• Copernicus Science Centre
• The Museum of the Uprising
• The old Jewish quarter (Warsaw Ghetto) and all places of remembrance

Krakow

Unlike Warsaw, this city was spared by the fighting of the last war. Its architecture is particularly worth a look, especially the Old Town which exudes an undeniable charm. The Grand Place of the Market is lined with historic buildings, museums and churches. Krakow is home to one of Poland’s most interesting museums: the Czartoryski Museum, which has a very fine collection of European art and Asian crafts. It is very easy to find your way around this city: the Old Town is home to most of the monuments and museums, as well as hotels and restaurants within a 500-metre radius.
It is recommended to leave at least 3 days. Places not to be missed beyond those mentioned above are: the Basilica of Our Lady Of St. Mary, the Wyspia-ski Museum, Wavel Castle, the Jewish quarter of Kazimierz, the former factory of Oskar Schindler, and the Wieliczka mine.
The Tatras
The Tatras massif is the highest point of the Polish Carpathians. This is the only place in Poland where you can see anything but flat! It is the realm of cliffs, rocky peaks and glacier lakes. Winters are long and summers are too short and not hot enough to melt all the snow.
The best time to discover this region is in late spring or early fall.
It is essential to visit the Podhale region dotted with dozens of small traditional villages. If you like hiking this is the ideal area, especially in the cities of Gizycko and Mikolajki.

Gdansk

A very cheerful seaside resort, seaport, it is called the “triple city”. It is a city that invites you to stroll through its mysterious streets and fantastic shops. The magnificent architecture of the Old Town is dominated by an impressive Gothic cathedral, the largest brick church in Europe. It is a city that attracts as many tourists as the city of Krakow!

Wroclaw

It is the most fascinating and wonderful city according to tourists of Polish cities. It is one of the oldest cities in Poland. Its nightlife is very lively, as well as the day with a multitude of festivals taking place there. During your walks it is recommended to stroll through the streets of the old town built on several islands connected by a hundred bridges!
