* coming to Warsaw for the first time in 26 years… need help!
Hi,
I am going back to Poland for the first time in 26 years. I was born there and left at age 9 and moved to the states.
I’m going with my sister and our husbands. Our husbands are not Polish.
I want to show them how amazing Warsaw truly is!
We are going to be there for a week from August 1st - August 8th and we will be attending The Weeknd concert as well August 5th!!!
Can you please let me know what are the spots to visit? What are some restaurant & hotel recommendations.
Below are places I am for sure going to -
On my list I have -
* the neighborhood I lived in and school I went to
* stare miasto
* syrenka warszawska
* pomnik malego powstanstwa
* Barbican
* Warsaw uprising museum
* St. John’s Archcathedral
* Łazienki Park
* morskie oko
* pałac kultury
* Vistula Boulevards
* Tomb of the Unknown Soldier
* Royal Castle in Warsaw
* Malbork Castle (it’s about 3 hours from Warsaw)
* Czersk Castle ( about 40 min from Warsaw)
* pole mokotowskie & Dreszera Park & fort mokotów
Also what are some areas to avoid?
Thank you in advance!
