Description
2in1 tour, ideal as the introduction to Warsaw. The first half of the tour covers the Royal Route, which is the most elegant Warsaw street. Here in the 17th and 18th century wealthy noblemen were building their luxurious residences, powerful religious orders were erecting their baroque churches, here in the 19th century Chopin lived and Marie Curie was studying. In the second half of the tour you will explore the 20th-century city centre, reshaped by communist architects and urban planners, with the most iconic Warsaw building: the Palace of Culture, the famous gift from Stalin to the People's Republic of Poland, aimed to give Warsaw the new communist identity.
