Warsaw is the capital and the biggest city of Poland. If you are going to Warsaw, we recommend you to find accommodation in the city center or nearby. Warsaw is 3 times bigger than Paris, even though it has 3 times less citizens, and so it is very time-consuming for tourists to live in the suburbs. The most touristic spots in Warsaw: Łazienki Królewskie, Old Town, Wilanów, Palace of Culture, museum of Warsaw Uprising
