Praga

This café- and restaurant-dense district on Warsaw's east bank of the Vistula, Praga has a character distinct from the city centre across the river. First mentioned in 1432, it operated as a separate town with its own city charter until 1791, and retains an unusual concentration of churches alongside its lively food and drink scene. The wider region includes UNESCO World Heritage sites within reach.
