It delights visitors with its colourful tenement houses and the unique atmosphere of its narrow street. Included on the Unesco World Heritage list, Warsaw’s Old Town was completely rebuilt after World War II, based mostly on 18th-century paintings by the Italian painter Canaletto. The heart of the area, guarded proudly by the Mermaid of Warsaw, is the Old Town Market Place with its restaurants and cafes. Visitors should also make sure to see the Barbican and St John’s Cathedral, as well as explore the picturesque winding streets.
