Poland

Poland Synopsis

Explore Poland's endless charms

Whether you want to discover cutting-edge art and architecture, trek through untouched primeval woodland, or simply raise a glass of the nation's favourite tipple, your DK Eyewitness travel guide makes sure you experience all that Poland has to offer.

Though famous for Kraków's charming cobbled streets and bohemian bars and Warsaw's high-tech museums and trendy cafés, Poland is much more than a tale of two cities. Golden Baltic beaches in the North are separated from the sweeping chain of mountains in the South by swathes of rolling farmland, atmospheric wetlands and ancient forests.

Our recently updated guide brings Poland to life, transporting you there like no other travel guide does with expert-led insights and advice, detailed breakdowns of all the must-see sights, photographs on practically every page, and our hand-drawn illustrations which place you inside the country's iconic buildings and neighbourhoods.

You'll discover:

-our pick of Poland's must-sees, top experiences, and hidden gems
-the best spots to eat, drink, shop, and stay
-detailed maps and walks which make navigating the country easy
-easy-to-follow itineraries
-expert advice: get ready, get around, and stay safe
-colour-coded chapters to every part of Poland, from Mazovia to Kraków, Silensia to Gdansk
-our new lightweight format, so you can take it with you wherever you go
