Warsaw, the capital of Poland, is a vibrant city where history meets modernity. From its beautifully reconstructed Old Town and the Royal Castle to modern skyscrapers and cultural hubs, the city offers a unique blend of tradition and innovation. Visitors can enjoy parks like Łazienki Królewskie or Pole Mokotowskie, ideal for a relaxing walk between conference sessions. For a scenic outdoor experience, participants can spend time along the Vistula River and cross the modern pedestrian-and-cyclist bridge connecting both banks, offering stunning views of the city.
The city’s public transport network is extensive and convenient, including metro, trams, and buses. Tickets can be purchased at stops, in ticket machines, directly on board trams and buses, or via mobile apps such as SkyCash, making it easy for visitors to get around. Short-term tickets (f.ex. for 24h or 72h) are ideal for conference participants traveling around the city.
Polish cuisine is hearty, flavorful, and perfect for enjoying between conference sessions. Participants can try pierogi — traditional dumplings filled with meat, cheese, or vegetables — as well as a variety of comforting soups, including the classic rosół (chicken broth) or żurek (sour rye soup), which can be served in a bowl made of bread. Since the symposium takes place in the second half of June, visitors may also get to taste fresh “jagodzianki”, sweet buns filled with seasonal blueberries, a beloved Polish summer treat, as well as “pączki” doughnuts with confiture or jam filling.
