Warsaw by night

Warsaw Business district

WARSAW (Warszawa) is the capital of Poland. She is also the biggest Polish city as well. There are nearly 3000 couchsurfers, many very active. There are also many active members of other hospitality clubs as Hospitality Club .

Lodz (Łódź) is another big city in Poland, located some 130 km from Warsaw. It is somewhat famous for early-20th century architecture and even more for its lively nightlife. The main Piotrkowska street is lined up with pubs and clubs. Lodz Kaliska is probably the most renowned of them. It was run by an artistic group of the same name and this sort of bohemian spirit is clearly seen until now. Lizard King is another good place to hit a couple of beers; and you can be sure to hear some great live music at night. [mike_lew]
