It’s very crowded and very touristy but I think it’s a must go if you’re visiting Warsaw. Square itself is lovely, there are many good restaurants around and you have a nice view of National Stadium (which definitely looks better from the distance)

The heart of The Old Town and definitely a 'Must See Place' Home to Museums, Restaurants, Free Music Concerts, Market stalls and shops. Not all of which are Tourist orientated, so No Pressure Sellers. Lots of craft stalls with high quality goods at reasonable prices. In winter there are beer shacks set up surrounding the Open Air Ice rink as well as the restaurants

On the eastern side of the Saxon Garden, in the part that survived the Saxon Palace after World War II, lies the Tomb of the Unknown Polish Corps - in memory of the soldiers who fell in the battles for Polish independence and their names and / or burial places are unknown. The place looks like a small church with a "The constant flame of fire" and a guard of honor of soldiers guarding it and giving military honor to the fallen. The honor guard exchange ceremony is held every day at 12:00.

The Royal Łazienki was King Stanisław August’s summer residence, in which a classicist architecture is harmoniously blended with its natural surroundings featuring fabulous gardens

This is the most popular site-seeing spot in Warsaw, a real must! Fantastically located on two levels of terrain and on the slope between them. It is actually an English garden with several-hundert years old trees, artificial lakes and cannals, picturesque “Palace on the water” (the residence of the last Polish king) and all the historical buildings beautifully composed into the terrain and park, delivering many spots of an unusual beauty (for example: a magnificient view from the bridge on the channel on the lake and a slope crowned with classical Belweder building). All this makes Łazienki a natural destination for all the first-time visitors to Warsaw and a perfect leasure place for the people living here. In my opinion, its perfect for a nice one-hour-stroll or if you have more time, just take a seat on one of the benches and imagine yourself the 18th century king playing cards or just having a walk. You may also consider entering Palace on the Water - a museum. If you are interested in the Polish history there is a lot to learn here if not just enjoy!

This isn't a very long road but boy is it busy! There are cars, busses, taxis, and so many people hurrying everywhere. There are lots of shops and so many restaurants it was difficult to decide where to eat. After the rush hour traffic has passed then it's a lot more peaceful and you can relax and have a nice meal with the compulsory shot of vodka of course.

A most impressive monument that is designed in the form of a train carriage loaded with a large pile of crosses symbolizing the hundreds of thousands of Poles transported in carriages cattle east to the USSR, where they were massacred in the Soviet labor camps. The names of the death camps are stamped on the rails.

I love this place. Would give it 10 stars. It embodies perfectly the modern Warsaw and poland. Super Mix of various restaurants and street food in a beautifully and very stylish former converted market hall.... An absolute must for each Warsaw visit.
