Trains from Chopin airport reach the centre in about 20 minutes on a standard ZTM ticket.

The old town is a faithful post-war reconstruction and is UNESCO listed for exactly that reason.

The Warsaw Rising Museum and POLIN museum are both heavy, excellent and need two hours each.

The right bank at Praga has the surviving pre-war streets and the more interesting nightlife.

## Local knowledge

Contributed by guides, operators and creators on the ground. Community advice, kept separate from official sources.

Cross the river to Praga

The right bank survived the war, so the tenements and courtyards are original. Best bars in the city and a short tram ride out.
