Multimedia Fountain Park

Multimedia Fountain Park

Located on the left bank of the Vistula at the foot of the Old Town, is a wonderful spot to visit on Friday or Saturday evenings. Once night falls, the show begins, with water, lights, and sounds, creating a colourful and harmonious display.

Dollhouse Museum

Dollhouse Museum

The impressive collection of over 100 different dollhouses and other exhibits from different epochs includes a miniature school, a drugstore, shopping stalls, and even a wedding dress store. Not only children will be awed by the Museum; adults will also be transported back to their childhood.

Warsaw Zoo

Warsaw Zoo

The Warsaw Zoo is a place where neither adults or children will ever get bored. The zoo is home to several thousand different animal species, including elephants, giraffes, meerkats, and venomous snakes. You will have the chance to see the comfortable abode of gorillas and the modern hippo habitat. If you like places with history, then take a look inside the Żabiński Villa. During World War II, the zoo’s director, Antoni Żabiński, gave shelter to those in need, mainly Jews who had escaped from the ghetto, accommodating them in the villa’s basement.

Playgrounds & Outdoor Sports Gyms

Playgrounds & Outdoor Sports Gyms

If you run out of ideas for things to do with tired, bored children, take them to a playground or to an outdoor sports gym. As if by magic, they’ll soon be full of energy again. There are plenty of these “recharging stations” dotted around the city – by the Vistula, in almost every park and district of Warsaw.
