Warsaw, the capital of Poland, combines modern city life with traces of its complex history. Key sights include the rebuilt Old Town with its Royal Castle, the Łazienki Park with its palace and peacocks, and the POLIN Museum exploring Jewish history. The local currency is the Polish złoty (PLN), and prices are generally lower than in Western Europe—meals, transport, and accommodation tend to be good value. The weather varies widely: winters are cold and snowy, while summers are warm, often around 25°C, with spring and autumn bringing mild but changeable conditions.
