I recommend „Hala Koszyki”. A food court which has the cousins from around the world. Everyone will find something for themselves. Old town is so so so pretty and the subway works really well. There’s a lot more to see like Muzeum Kopernika :)

For me, the city of Warsaw is very beautiful, unfortunately I didn't like it because of the hustle and bustle🙃 On my next trip I'm thinking of going to Gdansk and make the most of this summer with my son 👶

I felt safe, but at times I was a bit anxious. I mostly traveled alone, but a relative who lives there had already told me about the most popular and must-see places. 1. Muzeum Narodowe 2. The Royal Lazienki Museum 3. Museum/Palace Wilanow 4. Museum Fryderyka Chopina … I couldn’t quite enjoy the food. There was one place I loved, though, and I visited it multiple times to have pizza: Pizza by the Slice👌🏻
Posted: February 11, 2025We (3 girls) did not feel safe at all. We were visiting for only one day, but that was still enough for us to be assaulted by men 3 times and once we had to report an exhibicionist in a late night bus. Disgusting experience, i trust polish men no more

Warsaw is a safe place for women traveling alone. I travel there very often due to university. It is super easy to get around as public transportation is comfortable and organized. You can download the app Jakdojade to get around Warsaw and you can also buy transportation tickets from there. I always felt safe during the night as well, a part from some drunk men that might approach during the night in the city centre. However, if you just tell them to leave they will leave. It is cheap and there’s many supermarkets named Zabka that sell many quick meal options for cheap.

Super cheap and ate very good. Got a good hostel 30 seconds away to a huge club street. Like 10 minutes from the main area of the city. Enjoyed really cheap fun shots. There was a club named “Havana” nearby. Great club. Wonderful art n very cold. Not a lot of English speakers but can get around easily with just saying Kurwa.

Warsaw is quite safe overall. You know, of course I would be careful about walking alone during the night, but compared to other European cities, it is better. Unfortunately, if you are person of color, you have to be extra careful :( I am white, but my POC friends have told me about the racism they experienced and situations that made them feel unsafe

It’s a very safe space even after sundown, i don’t feel threatened in the city center or anywhere near it. The suburbs are a bit more dangerous though, so if you plan on visiting nearby cities you should check with locals for advise!
