Warsaw is a dynamic, born-again capital. Although much of the city was destroyed in World War II, immediately afterwards, a huge project was set in motion to rebuild the city.

A number of elegant palaces and parks surround the city; these include Wilanow, a wonderful Baroque palace built for King Jan Sobieski III and the Lazienki Park with its 18th century Orangery and ornate palace.

Warsaw makes a fascinating twin-centre holiday when combined with Krakow which is less than three hours away by train.
