Warsaw Travel Guide - Poland Magical Experience
Warsaw Travel Guide - Poland Magical Experience
Warsaw (Polish: Warszawa) is the capital of Poland and, with 1.7 million inhabitants, its largest city. It is located on the Vistula River (Polish: Wisła), roughly equidistant (350 km, 217 mi) from both the Baltic Sea (Bałtyk) in the north and the Carpathian Mountains (Karpaty) in the south. The medieval capital of Poland was the southern city of Krakow, but Warsaw has been the capital of the country since 1596, and has grown to become Poland's largest city and the nation's urban and commercial center. Completely destroyed by the Nazis during World War II, the city lifted itself from the ashes. Today, almost every building in Warsaw dates to the postwar era — with what little remains of the old structures being confined largely to the restored districts of Stare Miasto (the 'old city') and Nowe Miasto ('new city'), as well as selected monuments and cemeteries, plus midwar modernist districts Ochota and Żoliborz.
Districts of Warsaw :
Centrum (Śródmieście, Wola, Mokotów, Żoliborz, Ochota, Praga Północ, Praga Południe)
The Centrum area, which also comprises the famous Warsaw Old Town. It's made up of six diverse districts and is a mixture of industrial areas and prestigious residential neighborhoods. It will be here that most travelers will spend their time in Warsaw, as most major attractions and hotels are primarily located in Śródmieście, Wola, and Mokotów.
Northern Warsaw (Bielany, Białołęka)
Western Warsaw (Bemowo, Włochy, Ursus)
Eastern Warsaw (Targówek, Rembertów, Wawer, and Wesoła)
Southern Warsaw (Ursynów, Wilanów)
The southern terminal of the Royal Route, Wilanów is home to the Wilanów Palace. Ursynów is home to the historic Natolin park and nature reserve, which hosts the College of Europe Natolin in the Potocki Palace. The area saw intense activity on the part of the Polish Home Army during the Warsaw Uprising.
Historically, the right bank was the first one to become populated, during the 9th or 10th century. However, the present city's central district, called Śródmieście lies on the left bank. The Old Town is fully contained within the borders of the city center. The central point of the city is located at the intersection of Al. Jerozolimskie and ul. Marszałkowska, near the entrance to the Metro Centrum subway station. It is good to know that the Palace of Culture is a landmark visible from almost any location in Warsaw. Should you ever get lost in the city, just walk toward the Palace of Culture and Science. The quarter delimited by Al. Jerozolimskie, ul. Marszałkowska, al. Jana Pawła II, and ul. Świętokrzyska, contains Dworzec Centralny, the main railway station, and the Palace of Culture and Science.
The public transport system in Warsaw is generally well-developed, with some 200 bus routes and 30 tram lines. The route descriptions on the tram stops are easy to follow and the tickets are cheap. It can be painfully slow, however, to travel between destinations far from the city center.
There are plenty of accomodation options in Warsaw at all budget levels. The best accomodation options are located in Śródmieście, Wola, and Mokotów. There are also many business travel hotels in Warsaw/Włochy, near the airport. If you are on a budget, do not assume that hostels are your only option.

도심 한복판, 넓은 광장. 폴란드 국기와 거기에 나란히 또 하나의 건물이 있다. ‘무명용사의 비‘다. “많은 폴란드 사람이 무수히 많은 전쟁과 시련 속에서 이름도 남기지 못하고 죽어갔어요. 이곳은 그들을 기억하는 폴란드의 성지이며 앞으로도 계속 그럴 겁니다” 멀리 무명용사들을 지키러 근위병들이 온다. 일요일 정오마다 하는 교대식이다. 강대국 사이에 끼어 수많은 시련 속에 살았던 폴란드, 그 역사는 저항과 부활의 연속이었다. 그리고 오늘 독립 100년, 사람들은 그 역사를 이어가고 있다.
[English: Google Translator]
In the heart of the city, wide open space. There is another building alongside the Polish flag and there. It is the rain of an unknown warrior. Many Polish people died in myriad wars and trials without naming them. This is Poland's holy place to remember them and will continue to do so in the future. The guards come from guarding the unknown warriors. It is an alternating formula for every Sunday at noon. Poland, which lived among the great powers in many trials, its history was a continuation of resistance and resurrection. And today 100 years of independence, people are continuing its history.
[Poland: Google Translator]
W sercu miasta, szeroka otwarta przestrzeń. Tam jest inny budynek obok polskiej flagi. To deszcz nieznanego wojownika. Wielu Polaków zginęło w niezliczonych wojnach i próbach bez nazywania ich. To święte miejsce Polski, aby je zapamiętać i będzie to robić w przyszłości. Strażnicy pochodzą z ochrony nieznanych wojowników. Jest to przemienna formuła na każdą niedzielę w południe. Polska, która żyła wśród wielkich potęg w wielu procesach, jej historia była kontynuacją oporu i zmartwychwstania. A dziś, po 100 latach niepodległości, ludzie kontynuują swoją historię.

폴란드 여정의 마지막은 수도 바르샤바다. 그 옛날 비스와 강가에 살던 어부가 인어를 구해주고 함께 부부가 돼 살았는데, 그 어부의 이름이 바르, 인어의 이름은 샤바로 바르샤바는 그때부터 인어가 지켜주는 도시다. “인어는 바르샤바의 상징 그 자체로 칼을 들고 있는 건 바르샤바를 수호한다는 의미예요” 바르샤바의 상징, 전설의 인어상. 여기엔 비밀이 하나 있다. 바로 실제 모델이 있었던 것. 주인공은 크리스티나 크라헬스카로 2차대전 당시 저항군으로 활동하다 생을 마감했다. 그녀는 오늘도, 바르샤바를 지키고 있다.

The symbol of Warsaw, the legendary mermaid. There is a secret here. There was a real model. The protagonist, Christina Krahuska, died at the time of World War II. She is still guarding Warsaw today.

7 Facts worth knowing about Poland
Learn, Share, Subscribe

In this brief video you can find seven little known facts about Poland.
More information about the video content bellow:
1. Poland was the only European country which never officially collaborated with the Nazis at any level, and no Polish units fought alongside the Nazi army. Poland never officially surrendered to Germany, and the Polish Resistance movement in German-occupied Poland during World War II was the largest resistance movement in Europe.
2. Marie Curie (Manya Sklodowska) was born in Warsaw (Warszawa), Poland, on November 7, 1867. She moved to Paris in early 1880 and married Frenchman Pierre Curie in 1895. With her husband, she discovered the elements polonium (Po), named after her native Poland, in the summer of 1898 and, soon thereafter, radium (Ra). She is credited for coining the term “radioactivity”.
Nicolaus Copernicus (Mikołaj Kopernik) was born in 1473 in Toruń (Thorn), Poland. he later wrote down in De revolutionibus orbium coelestium; its revolutionary contention was that the sun, not Earth, was the center of the planetary system. The work was published by church authorities in Nuremberg in 1543, the year Copernicus died.
In October 1978, the Bishop of Kraków, Poland, Cardinal Karol Józef Wojtyla, became Pope John Paul II, the 264th head of the Roman Catholic Church on October 16, 1978 at 5:15 p.m.
Frédéric François Chopin (Fryderyk Franciszek Szopen), is Poland’s most famous composer. Chopin was born in Żelazowa Wola, Poland, in 1810.
3. Geographically, Poland is not actually in Eastern Europe – it is in fact in the very centre of Europe.
4. Nearly 35% of the 60 million Poles live abroad and large Polish speaking communities can be found in the US, Canada, UK, Germany, Australia, Brazil and Argentina. Polish has the second largest number of speakers among the Slavic languages after Russian.
5. Poland has a desert: the Bledow Desert. It’s an oddity in such a lush countryside. In the 13th century, the forest here was felled to foster silver and lead mining. It revealed a hitherto hidden deep layer of sand, deposited by waters flowing from melting glaciers perhaps a century before. Humankind's destruction of native plant life, in league with the natural deposit of sand, created the desert.
6. Paradoxically, Warsaw’s Old Town is only 50 years old. During the Invasion of Poland (1939), much of the district was badly damaged by the German Luftwaffe. Immediately after the Warsaw Uprising (August–October 1944) what had been left standing was systematically blown up by the German Army. After World War II, the Old Town was meticulously rebuilt.
7. Some of the first shots fired during the WWII took place in Gdansk – Westerplatte. The first cannon shots of WW2 fell here from a German Battleship in the Baltic Sea. There is a monument there in honour of the Polish solders that stood for seven days against the German’s attack.

[한국어 정보]
바르샤바의 한 공동묘지, 조성된 지 150년이 넘었다. 조화로 흰 국화를 주로 사용하는 우리와 달리 폴란드는 장미, 백합 등 다양한 꽃을 사용한다. 묘지 입구에 서있는 망자의 명단과 묘지 번호, 쇼팽도 파리의 어느 공동묘지에 이렇게 묻혀있으리라는 생각이 들었다. 공동묘지라는 단어가 지니는 무서운 느낌 보다는 숲속에 들어온 기분이 들었다. 폴란드는 천주교 국가라 화장을 하지 않는다. 그리고 대부분은 가족묘 형태로 무덤을 만든다. 화장을 하지 않다 보니 묘지 하나에 여러 개의 관이 들어간다. 관 뚜껑에는 쇠로 만든 튼튼한 고리가 있다. 이 가족 무덤은 1887년에 조성되어 2011년까지 모두 11구의 시신이 같이 묻혀있다. 묘지를 둘러보다 눈에 익은 조형물이 눈에 띈다. 폴란드의 유명한 영화감독의 무덤이다. 쉰다섯의 세상을 버린 천재 감독, 그의 천재성도 쇼팽처럼 요절하면서 많은 사람들의 추억 속으로 자리하게 되었다. 폴란드 무명용사의 묘다. 영원히 꺼지지 않는 불이다. 묘지는 바르샤바 중심부에 있다. 그들의 희생을 잊지 말자는 의미가 있을 것이다. 폴란드는 러시아, 독일과 같은 군사 강대국 7개 나라와 국경을 접하고 있다. 또 땅의 대부분이 평지다. 그 만큼 전쟁도 많았고 피해와 희생도 컸다. 시간 마다 정각에는 위병 교대식이 거행된다. 절도 있는 걸음걸이와 자세에서 무명용사 묘의 엄숙한 분위기를 잘 나타내 준다.

Warsaw of the cemetery, the composition is not more than 150 years. Unlike the white chrysanthemum in harmony and we mainly use the Polish uses a variety of flowers, including roses and lilies. Names and numbers of the Dead cemetery standing at the cemetery entrance, thus assuming Chopin also buried in any cemetery in Paris heard this thought. Scary feeling, rather than having the word cemetery felt coming into the woods. Poland is not a cosmetic called Catholic countries. And most of the graves to make gajokmyo form. Not the makeup looked into several pipes in one cemetery. There are iron coffin lid made of sturdy rings. The family tomb is composed in 1887, as both buried 11 bodies until 2011. Ripe sculptures look around the cemetery in the snow stands out. The tomb of the famous Polish film director. Swik five of the world lost a genius director, and his genius was also the place in the memories of many people, like Chopin and premature death. Myoda Polish Unknown Soldier.

Nie makijaż wyglądał na kilka rur w jednym cmentarzu. Istnieje żelazo pokrywa trumna wykonana z wytrzymałych pierścieni. Grób rodziny składa się w 1887 roku, zarówno jako pochowano 11 ciała do 2011 roku. Dojrzałe rzeźby rozejrzeć cmentarzu w śnieg wyróżnia. Grób słynnego polskiego reżysera.

다음날 멀리 산 하나가 보인다. 원뿔모양이긴 한데 옆면은 과일을 깎은듯 층층이고 정상엔 폴란드 국기가 펄럭인다. 나도 사람들을 따라 정상으로 올라가 본다. 많이 높진 않았지만 가는 길은 제법 춥고 오래 걸리는 비탈길이다. 정상에 오르니 비석 하나가 눈에 띈다. 폴란드 혁명가, 코시치우슈코다. 그는 18세기 폴란드가 강대국에 분할될 때 최후까지 저항했던 인물이다. 평평한 폴란드 땅에서 사람들이 만든 인공 산은 그에게 바치는 최고의 헌사였던 것이다.

The next day I see a mountain in the distance. It is a conical shape, but its sides are stratified like fruit and the flag of Poland is fluttering to the top. I also go up to the summit with people. Although it is not much, it is a sloppy road that takes a long time. One of the monuments stood out. Polish revolutionary, Koshichushukoda. He is the one who resisted until the end of the 18th century when Poland was divided into the great powers. The artificial mountains made by people in flat Polish lands were the best tribute to him.
[Poland: Google Translator]
Następnego dnia widzę górę w oddali. Ma stożkowaty kształt, ale jego boki są rozwarstwione jak owoce, a flaga Polski powiewa na czubek. Ja też idę na szczyt z ludźmi. Chociaż to niewiele, to niedbała droga, która zabiera dużo czasu. Jeden z pomników wyróżniał się. Polski rewolucjonista, Koshichushukoda. To on stawiał opór aż do końca XVIII wieku, kiedy Polska została podzielona na wielkie mocarstwa. Sztuczne góry wykonane przez ludzi w płaskich ziemach polskich były dla niego najlepszym hołdem.

나치가 만든 유대인 집단거주 지역 이었던 이곳에서 수십만 명의 유대인들이 학살당했다는 게 믿겨지지 않을 만큼, 거리는 고요했다. 나치에 대항했던 유대인의 벙커가 있던 자리에는 평온한 아파트 단지가 들어서 있었고, 2차 세계대전에서 희생된 유대인들을 기리기 위해 만들어진 게토 영웅 기념비는 시간이 오래 지난 듯한 꽃다발과 함께 쓸쓸히 서 있었다. 게토 기념광장 앞, 바람에 흩날리는 사진들만이 그날의 비극을 이야기해주고 있었다. 시간이 지나면 잊혀 진다고 했던가. 이곳 게토에서 인류 최대 잔혹사의 현장인 아우슈비츠 수용소로 가는 기차역의 현장은 이제 역사의 한 편으로 밀려나고 있는 듯 했다.

Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.

SUMMARY
=======
Marie Skłodowska Curie (; French: [kyʁi]; Polish: [kʲiˈri]; born Maria Salomea Skłodowska; 7 November 1867 – 4 July 1934) was a Polish and naturalized-French physicist and chemist who conducted pioneering research on radioactivity. She was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize, the first person and only woman to win twice, the only person to win a Nobel Prize in two different sciences, and was part of the Curie family legacy of five Nobel Prizes. She was also the first woman to become a professor at the University of Paris, and in 1995 became the first woman to be entombed on her own merits in the Panthéon in Paris.
She was born in Warsaw, in what was then the Kingdom of Poland, part of the Russian Empire. She studied at Warsaw's clandestine Flying University and began her practical scientific training in Warsaw. In 1891, aged 24, she followed her older sister Bronisława to study in Paris, where she earned her higher degrees and conducted her subsequent scientific work. She shared the 1903 Nobel Prize in Physics with her husband Pierre Curie and with physicist Henri Becquerel. She won the 1911 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.
Her achievements included the development of the theory of radioactivity (a term that she coined), techniques for isolating radioactive isotopes, and the discovery of two elements, polonium and radium. Under her direction, the world's first studies into the treatment of neoplasms were conducted using radioactive isotopes. She founded the Curie Institutes in Paris and in Warsaw, which remain major centres of medical research today. During World War I, she developed mobile radiography units to provide X-ray services to field hospitals.
While a French citizen, Marie Skłodowska Curie, who used both surnames, never lost her sense of Polish identity. She taught her daughters the Polish language and took them on visits to Poland. She named the first chemical element that she discovered in 1898 polonium, after her native country.Marie Curie died in 1934, aged 66, at a sanatorium in Sancellemoz (Haute-Savoie), France, of aplastic anemia from exposure to radiation in the course of her scientific research and in the course of her radiological work at field hospitals during World War I.
