It is located on the Vistula River, roughly 260 kilometres from the Baltic Sea and 300 kilometres from the Carpathian Mountains. The Palace of Culture and Science is the highest building in Poland. It has over 3,000 rooms. The big attraction is a large terrace on the 30th floor of the Palace.

 

Warsaw now has an ever more impressive selection of museums dotted around and even older ones are getting facelifts to bring the visitor experience into the 21st century. Without doubt the big three places on your list should be the Uprising Museum which charts the defining period in the history of modern Warsaw; the Copernicus Science Centre which is the city's most interactive and visitor friendly museum and the Chopin Museum which is both interesting and Warsaw's best example of a modern museum experience.

 

 

Bratislava, the capital, has been booming in recent years, although it still has a little less of McDonald's style commercialism that is rampant across Western Europe. Quaint and jovial with a surprisingly rich cultural life. Bratislava is a capital city without the usual tourist congestion.

 

You will find Slovaks to be extremely helpful, pleasant people prepared to go out of their way to welcome you.  From city breaks to folk festivals, castle tours to snow boarding and hiking you will find Slovakia a spectacular, undiscovered country to visit.

PRAGUE JEWISH TOWN

Few European cities can boast a better preserved Jewish Ghetto than Prague. Six synagogues, a Jewish Town Hall, magical cemetery and the unique genius loci make Josefov in Prague a place which you should most certainly not leave out when you are wandering around the “Golden City”. Get to know the unsettled history of the Prague Jews, their architecture, traditions, customs and stories, which rank among some of the most tragic in the 20th century.

 

Paradoxically, the Jewish Town has Adolf Hitler to thank for its well-preserved condition. It was precisely this Nazi leader who decided to establish the “Museum of an Extinct Race” in Prague. Thanks to this, valuables from the occupied countries were gathered in this area and the largest collection of Jewish items in Europe was created here. Nowadays, Josefov is again a lively place with a good-sized Jewish community. Visiting it will provide you with an insight into another piece of the mosaic of the development of Prague, “City of a Hundred Spires”.

 

THE PLACE WHERE GOLEM RESTS

As soon as you walk down the luxurious Pařížská, you will find yourself in front of the imposing frontage of the Old New Synagogue. Make sure to take a tour of it. Not only is it the oldest preserved synagogue in the whole of Europe, but its magical interior also hides many a point of interest. According to one of the legends, this is the resting place of the legendary Golem – the predecessor of Frankenstein’s monster, which was brimming over with great strength and which was the subject of interest of many kings and emperors.

 

SIX SYNAGOGUES, COUNTLESS STORIES

You will find a silent memorial to the victims of the holocaust in the Pinkas Synagogue. Its walls hold the longest epitaph in the world, which lists the names of those who died in the Nazi concentration camps. You will also find wonderful examples of Jewish architecture in the Maisel, Klaus and above all Spanish Synagogue, whose interior will astound you with its wonderful golden decoration. Not far from the Old New Synagogue, you can also see the Jewish Town Hall with its picturesque little tower, which is one of the symbols of the Prague ghetto.

 

A PLACE WITH A UNIQUE CHARM

Mysterious gravestones layered on top of one another, a game of light and shade, the quiet rustling of branches and a thousand stories which played out here. This is the Old Jewish Cemetery, one of the largest in the world. Thanks to the limited space and Jewish custom, which makes it impossible to disturb old graves, the cemetery has been covered with earth several times, in which new graves were created. Nowadays, there are as many as twenty layers on top of each other in some places here.
