From all the Polish people i have met on the way,the only two recommendation i got was to visit the coastal area around Gdansk and Tatra mountains around Zakopane.Poland being a comparatively big country,it looked quite challenging to scale the places i want to go over a weekend.It was difficult to make a choice between two,but i went ahead with Tatra Mountains :thumbup1:

Spotted this beautiful wooden church as soon as i ventured in Poland.

I reached Warsaw and checked in a hostel named "Lotus Guest House".There was plenty of sunshine outside and city center was few thousand meters walks away.I decided to go for a stroll.

And the centrum area,quite cheerful,alive and kicking :)

Took a U turn from here,realized that i have come too far and walking back is going to be a pain in the liver as it was time to feed it with some beer or Polish vodka.

I returned back and picked up this Polish vodka on the way.And retail store owner advised me that drink it neat as shots,that's how polish people take it.I said 'I I Captain'.
