Take the time machine back to the sixties and seventies of Poland. The Neon Museum's great collection helps you to imagine how streets of the main cities looked like, all lit up with colorful and playful neon signs. Some of the signs became iconic landmarks on their own, advertising legendary restaurants or bars of the era.

You can easily get lost (in your thoughts and in the cemetery itself) for few hours, wandering around and learning about the Jewish community and its tragic history. This is one of the most impressive Jewish graveyards you will ever see!

The interior of this place is simply stunning! I keep wondering how students can learn in such an amazing surrounding. It really looks like Harry Potter's Hogwarts, only in the lighter colors. This is probably one of the best hidden gems of Warsaw.

The interior is like from a fairy tale but don't be fooled easily - everything is brand new (the castle was reopened in 1979). If you want to see how Warsaw used to look like there's a great collection of paintings by Bernardo Bellotto - they were used as an example when the city was rebuilt

Neon Museum is a must in Warsaw but when you are done with it be sure to wander around Soho Factory grounds too, look for even more neons strewed around, peek inside the shops or visit another museum, showing the life in Poland during the communism time. Soho Factory is the best in the warm days when you can just relax on the deck chairs there.

Curious about the most Warsaw music you can get? Head to the monument and the look for the list of the songs (it's on the drum), then text the number of the song you'd like to listen to and the band will play it for you! You can't ask for the better music performance!

Plac Trzech Krzyży - try to say it out loud! The name of the spot is a real tangue twister (not for the locals;-)) and a beautiful square in the hear of the city. Look around and see different architectural style - typical Warsaw feature.
