There's an unfortunate misconception amongst outsiders and even many first-time visitors that Warsaw and Sightseeing don’t really go together; while this may once have rung true, nothing could be further from the truth today.
Although it was decimated during WWII, Warsaw's trauma may be precisely what makes its history so fascinating and important, and its contemporary identity so irrepressible. That the city stands at all is tribute enough to the indefatigable spirit of the Polish capital, and many of its historical treasures remain on display, including the reconstructed Old Town and Royal Castle, as well as the imperial beauty of Łazienki Park and Wilanów Palace.
Ask the locals, however, and it’s Warsaw's future-forward attitude, urban energy and modern wonders - exemplified by world-class museums, soaring skyscrapers and trendsetting urban centres like Browary Warszawskie and Norblin - that make it Poland's greatest city. When it comes to Sightseeing, visitors should be sure to experience the dynamic synergy of Warsaw as a modern metropolis that still nurtures its cultural spirit and traditions. Enjoy exploring Warsaw!
