Danny's 2020 Poland tour finally came to an end in Warsaw, the capital. It would be a perfect end to a perfect adventure.

The final days of my 2020 tour of Poland which were
spent in Poland’s capital, Warsaw. Once again, I’ll give my foreign perspective and
philosophical musings on the city’s main highlights.

On the surface, while its intensely modernised centre immediately wows, Warsaw may feel somewhat “sterile” and lacking a soul. I remember getting that impression. Subsequently though, my
feelings when I reminisce over my days in this city have changed.

What must be remembered is that 90% of this city quite literally no longer existed in 1945. Maybe it
doesn’t have that magical feeling that a city like Kraków evokes, but instead the
entire city of Warsaw can be seen as a towering monument to Poland’s arising from
the ashes after the Second World War.
