3. Mazovia of Chelmonski, Polish Patriotic Painter - for Cultural Explorers and … Outdoor Enthusiasts

Jozef Chelmonski lived in modest manor house with a piece of farmland. He spent last twenty-five years of his life in rural Mazovia. Nowadays, in the chambers of neoclassical palace surrounded by a park on the outskirts of Radziejowice, you can see many of Chelmonski works. They are so epic because he was painting with a great sense of color. He successfully replicated the natural beauty of that region.

Bonfire among the nostalgic Mazovia scenery will be an interesting experience. Plains wide and flat as a table, small patches of forests are characteristic features of landscape. We recommend booking this event - bonfire in the area, where beloved artist lived and created his works. (available from April to October).





4. Regional dish, Warszawa: traditional beef tartar – for Foodies

One of the biggest Polish delicacies is a famous tatar, though it is not easy at all to encounter it in restaurants. Legend has it that the name 'tatar' comes from untamed Tatars, and more specifically from the misconceptions about them, allegedly consuming raw meat. Make dinner reservations at a local restaurant that serves this unusual dish.
