Warsaw's old town - historic centre of Warsaw, today is the most popular tourist attraction of the city.
The old town is absolutely small, is, rather, a quarter, a compact complex of historic architecture, partially surrounded by defensive walls.
Despite its modest size, the Warsaw old town is very cosy and very colorful. Low buildings are so vivid that sometimes it seems, can enjoy them for a very long time.

Long in the hostel could not stay, went for a walk through the center of the evening in Warsaw.

The Church of the Holy Savior in Warsaw, the Polish name Najświętszego Kościół Zbawiciela, is valid to this day Catholic Cathedral.
This Basilica is a true decoration of the square of the Savior. Without it the area would not be so charming and would be quite grey, gloomy and miserly look.
