Poland





Back to you with new post about enjoying travel, I am going to talk about Poland; it’s really nice country to visit; everything there is wonderful and the citizens are nice and friendly, the reason that I am writing about Poland today is because it really deserves to be mentioned as it's a country that full of great places everywhere you go and because I have a very nice friend from Poland that gave me impression that they are really wonderful people.






Let’s start with the location, Poland is located in Central Europe, bordered by Germany (from the west), the Czech Republic and Slovakia (from the south), Ukraine, Belarus and Lithuania (from the east), and the Baltic Sea and Kaliningrad Oblast-a Russian exclave (from the north).






The Polish capital Warsaw is filled with outstanding landmarks and monuments, many which have survived an interesting past of battles, wars and the uprising in 1944. Today, many of Warsaw's best landmarks remain very much as they appeared centuries ago, such as the Ratusz (City Hall), and the Grand Theatre, both of them back to the 1830s. The tallest building in Warsaw and throughout Poland is the Palace of Culture and Science, its used to go by the name of the Joseph Stalin Palace of Culture and Science and was completed in 1955 after  three years of major construction work. Standing at just over 230 meters / 755 in height and boasting 42 floors, with more than 3,000 different rooms. Never forget to visit Grand Theater opera house which is a theatre complex and opera company located on historic Theatre Square in Warsaw, Poland.



Reaching the most important part for all of us which is thier traditional food, one of Polish traditional foods is Pierogi - traditionally stuffed with potato filling, sauerkraut, ground meat, cheese, or fruit- it’s kind of appetizer, main or dessert; I’m sure that you would try it so I will provide the recipe for traditional Potato and Cheese Pierogi.



Hope you enjoy it and check my blog soon with more posts.

With love to all polish people.
