Warsaw Travel Guide

It is often said that Warsaw bares some resemblance to the mythical Phoenix. Having been completely destroyed in WW2, the city somehow managed to lift itself from the ashes. Warsaw's all about change now. You wouldn't recognize the city if you last saw it ten years ago.

About Warsaw

Galeria Mokotow

galeria.jpgSpread out upon Warsaw’s well-to-do Upper Molotow district, Galeria Molotow is a monstrous modern shopping mecca, comprising 240 shops, a multiplex cinema, bowling alley, entertainment centre and multi-level parking for 2600 cars (that’s 5200 Maluchs). So successful was this (Molotow) cocktail recipe upon opening in 2000, it was immediately expanded upon in Warsaw (to a whopping 60,000 square metres!) and a second Galeria groundbreaking occurred in Krakow. Today Galeria Mokotow remains Warsaw’s favourite retail retreat, welcoming over 1 million visitors a month thanks to top-shelf tenants like Ahold, Park & Cloppenburg, Marks & Spencer, KappAhl, Cubus and a cartload more. 10-15 minutes from the centre by car, or try to track down one of these trams: 10, 17, 18. Open 10-22, Sunday 10-20.
