Old Town Warsaw Whenever someone starts thinking about planning a trip to Europe, a few main hotspots come to mind: France, Spain, Italy. It’s not common for Poland to top anyone's list. I admit, it certainly wasn’t on mine! I checked off all those spots before considering a trip through Central Europe that included stops in Poland. I’m here to help others learn from my mistake. Trust me, you are missing out if you sleep on Poland! I was blown away by both Warsaw and Krakow.
