Poland is the first country from the former Soviet Union to become a developed economy. Many Poles have returned to their homeland to make the most of its growing wealth.
Its recent history has been brutal. You can visit Poland without confronting the legacy of WW2 and the Soviet era. Life behind the Iron Curtain was grim, but life after the fall of communism has dramatically improved for Poland. It’s also a great place for tourists looking who want to make their money go a long way.

Poland is a large country with a lot to offer. Warsaw, the capital city, is full of historically significant buildings. Sadly, much of the significance is to do with war. Poland has been subjected to invasion and foreign rule on many occasions. At one point it was even occupied by Sweden. It’s heartening to contrast the modern success story of Poland with its previous struggles.
Explore its fairytale castles, try the hearty local cuisine and explore its many museums. One thing is for sure: Poland has not forgotten its history.
What Everyone Does In Poland
Explore Warsaw’s Old Town. Sadly, as Poland was so heavily bombed during WW2 Old Town had to be rebuilt. It’s a beautiful part of the city to discover.
What Some People Do In Poland

What No One Else Does In Poland
