Warsaw has always managed to reinvent itself. Poland’s capital has an energy and zest for life that brings colour to all the things you can do here, whether it’s pausing at a street-side café for a powerful coffee and extravagant cake or lounging with locals in a lush city park. It couldn’t be easier to zip from Warsaw to other Eastern European hotspots like Krakow, Prague and Budapest, but make sure you allow plenty of time to enjoy the city’s vibrant cultural offerings before moving on. Things to do in Warsaw include cutting-edge museums, innovative arts centres and hip boutiques that showcase the recent rise in homegrown design.
