WHY WARSAW?

Warsaw blossoms in the summer
In the harmony of great architecture, landscape of beautiful park and gardens and the Vistula River Boulevards that divided the city into two parts, Warsaw owns two personalities: one bustling with restaurants, clubs, nightlife, modern architecture and museum; the second one became the bohemian zone for artists. They created an independent lifestyle and the rich underground scene that made, this part of Warsaw, a destination for those looking for new artistic atmosphere and real soul of old-Warsaw.
Above it all, Warsaw has its unique charm and the breathtaking beauty of the surrounding countryside where you can enjoy splendid music events planned in Warsaw in August 2020
Just see how Warsaw blossoms in the summer !
