    Disadvantages Disadvantages Number of drunks

    =INTRODUCTION = Warsaw is the capital of Poland, in Central Europe. Poland has suffered from its neighbours throughout its history, and Warsaw is the classic symbol of this, having been reduced to a heap of rubble by the vengeful Nazis in 1944. Today it is the thriving capital of a member state of the European Union (Poland joined on 1 May 2004), a city of around 2m people on the banks of the Vistula river, benefiting from the transition from Communism to a market economy to such an extent that its GDP is 137% of the EU average (the average figure for the UK is 123% to give a benchmark). = MY ... more

    Advantages Advantages Quite cheap, plenty of museums and galleries, good food

    Disadvantages Disadvantages McDonalds have invaded, Praga area isn't very scenic

    My first view of Warsaw Central Railway Station all those years ago was a city devoid of character and just like a huge concrete jungle. However, when you venture nearer to the old town you come across its true splendour. As well as the concrete monstrosity, parts of the city have been reconstructed to its original form with great attention for detail. The main reason for Warsaw’s appearance is due to the fact that approximately 85% of the city was destroyed during World War II. Now the city continues to rebuild itself and everytime I visit there are new shopping arcades and cinema ... more

    Advantages Advantages Clean city, good historical heritage and monuments to see

    Disadvantages Disadvantages language

    I first arrived warsaw in august 2006 and 2 years later i was there again then i have something to tell. I arrived at the Frederic Tchopin International Airport where i made comparisons to the airport i saw 2years ago, there was now a European Standard newly built airport that's just few minutes away from the city center. This is quite a huge change. There are now newly constructed roads and buildings around the city and its very busy city. The attractiveness of the Old Town is the historical heritage of Poland where there is the old Palace. The many pubs and bars and hostels in the old town ... more

    Advantages Advantages Good looking, nice people, welcoming

    Disadvantages Disadvantages may have some language difficulties

    Warsaw is a city that has just been newly constructed after the wars. There are now newly constructed roads and buildings around the city and its very busy city. The attractiveness of the Old Town is the historical heritage of Poland where there is the old Palace. The many pubs and bars and hostels in the old town is just the place to live. I like the people of Poland very much and the young generation can speak some English now and so you don't need to worry about language. You will find monuments at almost every junction and the city is very clean with a good public transport system ... more
