Palace of Culture and Science Tour – A Fantastic Experience The guide was incredible, sharing captivating personal stories connected to Polish history and providing a clear, objective overview of the building’s past. The highlight was the stunning view from the terrace, where we saw all of snowy Warsaw. The gift shop was well-stocked with great prices. Definitely worth a visit!

At the end of your journey, skip the line to the elevator and go to the viewing terrace on the 30th floor to discover a beautiful view of the city.
