“Stare Miasto” is known as Warsaws old town and the heart and soul of Polands capital. A vibrant life characterize the place. Many tourists and merchants are part of the streetscape.
After the second world war, the old town was completely destroyed. It was a huge effort to rebuilt the whole place in such impressing beauty. It’s really unbelievable that all houses are just copies from old pictures which were taken before the war. They look very original.

For such a big city as Warsaw, its old town is rather small. The location is on a hillside over the Vistula river.
In 1980 the old town of Warsaw was accepted to be part in the list of UNESCO’s World Cultural Heritage.
