Tourist advice from Polish teachers...
|
Hi, I know this is not ESL related but still...
This coming summer we will have a long stop over in Warsaw on our way from Israel to Holland. (we, is my musician husband, me and my 2 teenaged kids)
Can anyone recommend places to visit and things to do/see? We will be there from +/- 9 AM to 7 PM....

I �m not from Warsaw and I have never been there, but I �ve heard that people recommend Chopin Muzeum (http://chopin.museum/en/information/visitors) - maybe your husband -musician - will be interested, or if you �re into science I suggest that you should visit the Copernicus Science Centre (http://www.kopernik.org.pl/en/about-us/) - it should be a lot of fun and knowledge, too. Just have a look.
Hope that somebody from Warsaw will give you some more information about interesting places in our Capital city. |

Wow, Marywell, the copernicus museum looks AMAZING! I �ve been on their website just now with my daughter and she already decided that that is where we will go!!! Thank you soo much for the recommendation! It isn�t even that expensive..
My husband is a musician but Chopin isn �t really our cup of tea, we were more thinking of some �happening � squares with street musicians or street performances etc. 
Now with the Copernicus museum on our list of �must do� I am not sure we will have time for anything else! |

Yes, I know a person who was in the Copernicus Science Centre with her family and she said that it was amazing but it had one drawback: it was so absorbing that they did not manage to visit any other places in Warsaw. She said they �d been there from 9 to 5 and still they did not try out all the available machines and experiments.
Maybe if you plan to devote just a few hours for that Centre and you really stick to your plan, you �ll have a chance to see some other �happenings �, maybe some street shows, or open air concerts, etc. , but personally I have no idea about such events during the summer in Warsaw. Such information is usually announced locally.
I hope that somebody from Warsaw will give you some more exact hints here or in a pm. |
