What's actually worth your time in Warsaw
The Old Town is a meticulous postwar reconstruction of a district the Germans demolished in 1944, and knowing that changes entirely how it reads. The Palace of Culture and Science, Stalin's unloved gift, sells a thirtieth-floor terrace ticket giving the only view that includes the building itself. Lazienki Park stages free Chopin concerts on summer Sundays. Praga across the river survived the war intact.
What to eat in Warsaw
Pierogi are the obvious order, but the milk bar is the Warsaw institution: subsidised canteens such as Bar Prasowy on Marszalkowska serving zurek, kotlet schabowy and nalesniki for a handful of zloty. Hala Koszyki and Hala Gwardii house the modern food halls. Paczki doughnuts are eaten in enormous quantity on Fat Thursday, the week before Lent begins.
What things cost in Warsaw
Transit costs 3.40 zloty for twenty minutes or 15 zloty for a full day. A milk-bar meal lands under 25 zloty while a mid-range restaurant main is 45 to 70. A half-litre of beer in Praga runs 12 to 20 zloty. POLIN is 45 zloty and the Rising Museum 35, both free on Thursdays, so stack them into one day.
Warsaw with kids, realistically
The Copernicus Science Centre on the riverbank is built for hands-on ages five to fourteen and needs booking days ahead. Lazienki's peacocks and red squirrels cost nothing at all. Trams and buses are largely low-floor, and an adult travelling with a child under four rides free. The Neon Museum in Praga's Soho Factory is a short, odd hit with older children.
When the weather turns in Warsaw
POLIN and the Rising Museum each fill three hours and both waive admission on Thursdays, which is worth timing a wet day around. The Palace of Culture contains cinemas, theatres and a swimming pool inside one building. Hala Koszyki is a warm covered market to eat in, the Copernicus Centre is fully indoors, and pedestrian underpasses link several blocks beneath the main roundabouts.
