Thankfully this district - locally called ‘Starowka’ - was meticulously rebuilt after 1945, preserving its atmospheric alleys, grand houses and cobbled squares. The heart of the Old Town is the market place, with its charming Polish restaurants and open-air cafes; browse stalls selling handmade trinkets and souvenirs by day, and enjoy a quiet drink in the evening. You’ll also find the Royal Castle and the Historical Museum of Warsaw in Starowka.

Sightseeing near Warsaw CBD

- Warsaw Uprising Museum

Even from the outside this museum looks interesting, set in an old red-brick power station west of the city center. Inside, the museum documents the horrific events of the 1944 Warsaw Uprising; the brave yet fruitless struggle of resident Poles against the cruel German occupation. The Warsaw Uprising Museum recreates the feel of occupied Warsaw, with an interactive route through the building. Hear from surviving insurgents, discover moments frozen in illuminated photographs, and pore over old posters and newspapers.

- Nowy Swiat Street

Warsaw’s most distinctive shopping street, Nowy Swiat is a mile long stretch of the ‘Royal Route’ - a series of streets connecting old royal buildings. Linking historic Warsaw with its modern counterpart, Nowy Swiat is lined with a great selection of shops, from luxury boutiques to entertaining souvenir stores. The flagship of the EMPiK department store is here, stocking surreal Polish toys together with dolls and games recognised the world over. For the traditional Polish spread ‘smalec’ and local hams and cheeses, head for upmarket delicatessen Krakowski Kredens, while a detour into the maze of Pawilony will satisfy any desire to buy tourist tat and amusing souvenirs.
