Warsaw is densely populated so you can expect to encounter congestion when driving in the center. As the city is often under construction check your route online before you start off so you can avoid detours to road work. Though Warsaw's infrastructure is currently under redevelopment there is to-date no circular system around the city so the many roads that head into the center may cause further delays.
It is a legal requirement to drive with at least your low lights on, even in the daytime. The road quality on Poland's major motorways is now very good however but expect major roads to often only have two lanes. Warsaw is on the E30 which runs all the way from Cork to Moscow. The Polish part of the route is the A2, it runs from the East to the West of the country connecting Warsaw with Poznań and Łódź.
Warsaw has a thriving art scene, a complex history and impressive architecture. Despite its large size if you are landing at Chopin Airport it is only seven miles into the old center. The beautiful Old Town has been lovingly restored with elements of Renaissance, Baroque, Gothic and neoclassical architecture evident in its facades. In the Old Town Marketplace you can see the Mermaid Monument, Warsaw's city symbol. The symbol can be found in various places throughout the city, most recently on the clock faces of the Palace of Culture and Science. Though controversial, the Palace of Culture and Science is a must see. This massive Soviet construction in downtown Warsaw now houses offices, a cinema, the Museum of Evolution, the Museum of Technology and a large indoor swimming pool.
Warsaw's stories are told through its variety of compelling museums. Be dazzled by the Neon Museum which researches and restores electro graphic art from the Cold War era. Many of the artists employed to design the signs were also involved in the infamous Polish Poster School. Works from the poster school can be seen in the extensive collection of the Poster Museum in Wilanów which you can reach with your rent a car. It is not a far drive from the center of Warsaw heading south to Wilanów in the direction of The Wilanów Palace. The museum is part of the old palace complex.
If you are over for a weekend break be sure to spend some time digging for finds at the flea market Bazar Olimpia on Sunday morning. Or if it's summer time head go for a Sunday stroll in Royal Łazienki Park where you can often enjoy a free Chopin concert. The park is also a home to Łazienki Palace, a baroque palace surrounded by water.
If you are a Chopin fan you might want to visit his birthplace, now a museum, in the picturesque Masovian village of Żelazowa Wola. While walking the grounds you will hear his music at various points. Żelazowa Wola is also right next to Kampinos National Park a greatp place to take in the scenic surrounds on various walking or cycling trails. The natural beauty of the area is a wonderful accompaniment to the music of Chopin.
Northeast of Warsaw is the Treblinka Memorial, built to honor the over 850,000 Jews that were murdered in the Treblinka extermination camp. There is a small but informative museum at the site along with thousands of quarry stones that represent gravestones for the victims. It is an emotional experience and a memorial that deserves greater recognition.
