Book Overview

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 favorite tipple, your DK Eyewitness travel guide makes sure you experience all that Poland has to offer.

Though famous for Krak w's charming cobbled streets and bohemian bars and Warsaw's high-tech museums and trendy caf s, 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 newly updated guide brings Poland to life, transporting you there like no other travel guide does with expert-led insights and advice, detailed information on all the must-see sights, inspiring photography and our trademark illustrations.

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
- color-coded chapters to every part of Poland, from Mazovia to Krak w, Silensia to Gdansk
- our new lightweight format, so you can take it with you wherever you go

Customer Reviews

This is the guidebook for visually oriented people.

I used this book to plan an upcoming trip to Poland. Like most people I know virtually nothing about what there is to see in Poland. This book was indispensable! And best of all it is filled with pictures! So even though Poland is filled with castles I was able to make a judgement as to which castles looked the most interesting. If you are spending only three or four days in Krakov this book contains more than enough information. No need to buy the Krakov book. The book is divided into regions with lots of maps to help orient you. They also spend a page or two giving in-depth highlights of areas of special interest in addition to the usual stuff for each area. If you are visually oriented don't even think about buying any other guidebook.

like the rest of the eyewitness travel guide series...

great photos, fun layout, and light on facts, history, analysis, etc. but a great quick look.

Brings Light to this Burgeoning Tourist Destination

You may have never considered vacationing in Poland, but after reading the Eyewitness Travel Guide for this country you will definitely want to make plans to go. DK does a fantastic job of highlighting the wonders of Poland. Ten years from now Poland will be just as high or higher on the tourist itinerary as Prague is today.
