Poland’s Capital City: Warsaw
War and Peace in Warsaw
Tips for Touring a Polish City in Renewal
April 17, 2006 — Warsaw, Poland’s capital and biggest city, is huge, famous, and important … but not particularly romantic. If you’re looking for quaintness, head for Cracow. If you’re tickled by spires and domes, get to the Czech Republic to visit Prague. But if you want to experience a truly 21st-century city, Warsaw’s your place.
Like Berlin, Warsaw is modernizing — fast. Mindful of its tragic history, yet optimistic about the future, Warsaw has happily emerged from a long hibernation. Varsovians are proud to live in a leading city in the new Europe. The city boasts gleaming new skyscrapers and street signs, stylishly dressed locals, cutting-edge shopping malls, and a gourmet coffee shop on nearly every corner.
