Winter weather in Warsaw is conducive to plenty of indoor activities. There are numerous theatres, shopping centers, indoor sports centers and interesting museums. For me, this is a perfect time of the year to explore museums. One museum which is a particularly good place to gain a better underst...

I loved this park & actually stubbled upon it by accident when I got lost on the public transport but I'm glad got off to visit. I visited in March so it was very cold but that added to the beauty as the lakes were all frozen. The architecture of the buildings was stunning, there were lots of wild...

Anny church isn't very big, but it does have a very nice interior. The walls are painted with light fresco like artwork, that contrasts highly with the dark baroque architecture of the building. The drawings are made so that they create deapts and relief that isn't really there. For me that was a st...

It was built in 1884 according to the project of Hilary Majewski who gave it a neo - Byzantine look clearly visible in the domes and decoration details. It's the symbol of Russian influence in Poland. The pretext to built it was the salvation of Tsar Alexander from the assasination in April 1879. Ri...

The museum has four main sections: Ancient art, Western European paintings, arts and crafts from the 16th to the 19th Centur...

The Niedzica Castle is a Gothic Castle, built between 1320 and 1326 above the Dunajec River in Southern Poland, about an hour's drive from Cracow. Since 1994, when the Dunajec River was dammed, it sits about 30 meters over Czorstyn Lake.
For centuries this was a border post with Hungary and was an...

The Slowaki theater is at the Ducha square, in the North East of Krakow's old town. I don't think one can visit it from the inside, unless you're attending a show, but the outside is worth a view.
The building is named after a famous poet and it's construction has been controversial because a chu...

I don't know if the Pauline church (also called Ciala church) is the only Catholic church in Kazimierz, but it sure stands out between the other architecture.
The inside of the building isn't very spectacular, though there are a number of important paintings and in the crypt some of Krakow's mos...

The Saint Adalbert's church stands at the Rynek Glowny, the main square in Krakow, and is pretty tiny.
The building itself is a white cubicle like form with a round roof, at one corner of the square. It is possible to visit it, and underneath is a small museum where you can watch some of the cel...

A rafting trip down a 15 km portion of the Dunajec River is a major tourist attraction in southern Poland. It makes a nice day trip from Kraków and is often combined with a visit to Niedzica Castle. I booked this trip for seven people and transportation to and from Krakow, the rafting trip and th...

Żuk - literally "beetle" - is a truck manufactured in Lublin, Poland between 1958-1997. I can't speak for its performance, but the look of it greatly enhances the atmosphere of walking around in Poland. Some are vans, some are pick-ups, (some are DJ booths). Look for them & enjoy. :)

Maluch – Fiat 126 (aka Polski Fiat)
You’ll see these small cars everywhere in Poland. They’re great (well, great to look at, I can’t speak for how they drive or ride). Produced between 1972-2000. I'd love to ship a few of these back to the States. :D

Nicolaus Copernicus - Mikołaj Kopernik - you know, the astronomer who proposed that whole heliocentrism theory which changed humanity’s view of the world, the universe, and ultimately life – anyway he attended Jagiellonian University (where I go) for four years. There is a statue of him near C...
