Vistula Embankment

One of Maria’s favourite walking routes. She did not forget it when visiting Warsaw for the last time. The banks of the Vistula still attract both residents and tourists, especially in the summertime, with city beaches, many bars, outdoor concerts, river cruises and night-time shows in the Multimedia Fountain Park.
