1 day in Warsaw

From my experience I know that you can’t understand history of Warsaw in one day, but how to schedule time to see the most interesting part of the town.

Start the day off by grabbing your coffee at one of the many Green Cafe Nero.

Buy a day pass for Warsaw transportation 15 zł (4 euro), it will significantly speed up the movement in the city, but if you go on „my tour”, you won’t need the ticket, unless you don’t like to walk. You can also rent a city bike Veturilo, but in the center of Warsaw, they are not always available.

Sightseeing by walk

Start by walking through the Old and New Town, in here for centuries was concentrated life of Warsaw. If you have time visit the Royal Castle, on Wednesday’s admission is free.

Then stroll around Krakowskie Przedmieście Street and Nowy Świat Street, on the way visit the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier located on Pilsudski Square.

Stop by one of the „milk bars” cafeterias, serving traditional cuisine:

Bar mleczny „Bambino” on 21 Krucza Street
Bar mleczny „Familijny” on 39 Nowy Świat Street
Wegetariański bar mleczny, 30 Jerozolimskie Avenue
