Poland - Warsaw

Warsaw, the capital and largest city of Poland, is located on the Vistula River. It's a major international tourist destination, as well as an important economic hub in Central and Eastern Europe.

 Old Town

Strolling down the streets of the Old Town and New Town allows you to rest from the hustle of central city life. Beautiful alleys, squares, and cosy cafés create an unique sense of history and an unforgetable atmosphere.

Łazienki Królewskie Park-Palace Complex


The park and palace complex at Łazienki are one of the most popular places in the city. The Palace on the Island was built for King Stanislaw August Poniatowski – Poland’s last monarch. It served as his summer residence and now gathers tourists as well as dwellers, which use to come here just to relax.

Wilanów Park - Palace Complex


It was the summer residence of King Jan III Sobieski and then Augustus II. It's an excellent representation of European Baroque. The palace is surrounded by a grandiose, two level Baroque Italian garden and a romantic park in English style.

Palace of Culture and Science


The monumental building was raised in 1955 as a ‘gift from the Soviet people’. It's the embodiment of Socialist Realist architecture. It still remains as the tallest building in Poland and fulfils the role of a cultural centre.

Places related to Fryderyk Chopin


Fryderyk Chopin surely is the best known resident of Warsaw. Here he studied music, learned and gave his first concerts. In the city there are a lot of places dedicated to him. In Warsaw we can find the world’s largest Chopin memorabilia collection.

Poland - Santa Claus Park in the Land of Fairy Tales

Once upon a time Santa Claus, during his another journey through the world, visited a small city in southern Poland. As he was an experienced traveler, from far, far away he sensed a magical aura of making nice surprises for people there.


In this way he found himself in Zator, where he found a place to raise a main centre - a beautiful park with great examples of aged trees. The Park can be visited from 20th November 2011 to 20th February 2012.


Only there we can go on an extraordinary journey to a land lighted by over 3 millions of glimmers. During the travel we can visit characters from a dozen or so fairy tales. At the end there is Santa Claus waiting for everyone.

In the Santa Claus parade, which takes place everyday from 13 to 16 o'clock and surely is one of the most interesting Park's attraction, we can find the most popular characters from our favourite fairy tales.

For everyone - big and small - there is also an unforgetable and amazing adventure in the land of virtual dwarf Sylwestrzak.


That are interactive activities using 3D technology gathered in one show. They let us to talk with an interactive character - amusing Sylwestrzak, who talks to us directly from the screen. Sylwestrzak walks, dances, sings on a big screen and will answer all of your questions! Undoubtly it's a great fun for children as well as for adults.

Additional attractions:
  • Santa's Volcano of Forgiveness - to burn out all the bad deeds 
  • Star's Launcher 
  • Santa's Park of Joy - Gaming Room 
  • Santa's Post Office 
  • Funny Train 
  • A fair and small shops with souvenirs and Christmas decorations 

Although added photos are not mine, I found this place very interesting and I think it’s worth to share it with you.
