Poland
Located in
the heart of Europe, Poland on the one hand seems caught in a
time-warp boasting beautiful country-sides from the lake-districts
in the north to the Tatra mountains in the south, medieval towns
and castles a-plenty. On the other hand, particularly the cities
have become modern and vibrant with an economy really starting to
pick up pace.
