A nice compilation of places to see. My favourite is the Lazienki Park – easy to while away time in the beautiful natural surroundings.
Thank you! Lazienki is indeed a great park!
Warsaw is a great city, and there are so many amazing places to go to and things to see! I love exploring it and find some new great spots ? My recent discovery, and probably one of the favorite ones, is a restaurant with Polish food called the Akademia. They have very modern approach to Polish culinary tradition. Every single dish that I have tried there was excellent. I was so delighted ?
Thanks for checking out the article! Have never been to Akademia, have to check it out!
