Austria: Best Places to Visit

Poland joined the European Union in May 2004. Tourist facilities are not highly developed in all areas, and some services taken for granted in other European countries may not be available in some parts of Poland, especially in rural areas. Poland's cities were devastated during World War II and the country's post war recovery was retarded by communist domination of the government. Poland's countryside is idyllic, while its urban landscapes are a combination of rebuilt old towns and a mixture of functional but not quite stylistic architecture. We recommend that you focus your visit on urban Poland and consider visiting the principal cities in combination with a trip to another country. Unless you have a good command of the Polish language, we recommend that you visit Poland as a part of a tour arranged by a reputable company. More Poland
