| Warsaw Travel Guide for backpackers |
| Even though many refer to it as the ugly city, however after saying that, there is a lot of modernisation going on in Warsaw. New pubs, clubs, and restaurants are being opened almost daily and the friendliness of the people is truly inspiring, considering what they have had to overcome in the past hundred years or so. If you do decide to make Warsaw one of your stop offs then be sure to check out the Wisla River, which runs across the Mazovian plains and the Moscow-Berlin road that runs through the whole city. Warsaw is rapidly becoming a hot spot for tourists. |
