How to Spend 24 Hours in Warsaw, Poland, Warsaw, Poland

Warsaw is the capital and largest city of Poland and only for that reason, the city is worth a visit! Despite all the tourist attractions the city has to offer, Warsaw also has a beautiful old town center and places where you can go back in the past and explore a little history.

In September I went for a weekend to Poland. The first day I spent in the city Krakow and on the second day we went by train to Warsaw. If you are planning on doing the same route and combine to cities in one trip; I can definitely recommend to combine Krakow with Warsaw. These cities are not that far from each other (only approximately two hours by train) and are so different from each other! I really had a lovely time. Unfortunately I had not that much time in Warsaw as I had in Krakow, I didn’t even had 24 hours. Although I think I got a very good image of the capital of Poland. In this article I will give you some places you definitely need to visit when travelling to Warsaw! This article is all about the places which are in the city center and close to each other.

In my opinion, Warsaw Old Town is one of the most beautiful places to visit in Warsaw. I really love the cute, colourful houses and the little streets which lead you to cosy town squares and nice bars. I’ve spent most of the time in this part of the city. It was built during the 12th to 13th century and is surrounded by 14th century fortification walls. Nowadays, it’s the heart of the center where you can have a drink or diner in the evening and meet up with your friends. Here you can also find some street art and souvenirs. If you love museums, you can visit the Historical Museum of Warsaw or the Adam Mickiewicz Museum of Literature in Old Town. ......
