Attractions distribution:

Warsaw, the capital of Poland, is located on the banks of the Vistula River. Warsaw is pronounced "Warsaw" in Polish. The name was to commemorate a pair of lovers named Walsey and Shava, who overcame numerous obstacles and finally got married with their courage.
In the 13th century, Warsaw became a medieval town on the Vistula River crossing. In 1280, the Duke of Mazovia founded Warsaw and built a castle to control the Vistula River crossing. Warsaw has been prosperous since then. In 1344, Warsaw became the capital of the Duchy of Mazovia. In the 15th century, successive dukes built their own residences in Warsaw, and Warsaw's political status became more and more prominent as the city's functions were rapidly improved. In 1596, the Polish royal capital moved from Krakow to Warsaw Old Town From then on, Warsaw became the political and cultural center of Poland, and the city prospered immediately with large-scale construction. Warsaw was destroyed twice by the Swedes in 1656 and 1702, and rebuilt twice. At the end of the 18th century, it became one of the largest cities in Europe.
At the end of World War II, the Polish people launched an uprising against the Nazi occupiers in Warsaw. After the uprising failed, Hitler ordered Warsaw to be wiped off the face of the earth, and 85% of the buildings in the ancient city were purposefully destroyed. At that time, some Westerners once asserted: "Warsaw will never reappear in the world, at least there is no hope for 100 years." After getting rid of the war in 1945, the Polish people began to rebuild the city as it was, not only keeping Warsaw's medieval appearance, but also building a new urban area that exceeded the scale and level before the war.
Today, Warsaw still maintains the layout of the Old Town and the New Town. Various historical monuments and places of interest are mostly concentrated in the Old Town, especially the magnificent palaces, huge church , various watchtowers, castles, etc., attract a large number of tourists from abroad.
