Wondering what non-obvious travel destination to choose? Where you haven't been before, and perhaps worth going? Between Warsaw and Bialystok lies a small town of great historical significance. We are, of course, talking about Ostroleka, a small town, but how important, for example, in the fourteenth, fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. At that time it was a significant point on the trade route between Warsaw and Vilnius.
.Ostrołęka is not a large city, so many important and worthwhile sights are located close together. Let's say the Museum of Kurpie Culture is right next to the Old Town or the bridge named after Antoni Madalinski, yet these are the most important and characteristic points of Ostroleka. What's more, there is Zagroda Kurpiowska in Kadzidlo, which is a kind of open-air museum full of cottages and farm buildings from the 19th century, for example.
.Ostrołęka also has a well-preserved old town, the street layout is identical to that of the fourteenth century, however, it should be pointed out that due to its turbulent history and, among other things, the destruction suffered, for example, during the First World War, the building of the town hall located right on the market square is no longer what it was in the nineteenth century.
.If, on the other hand, you are looking for a respite on warm days, and happen to be in Ostroleka, or want to take a break from sightseeing, it is worth going to the city's beach, as the city's clear case lies on the Narew River.
.If you are wondering how to get to and from Ostroleka, we encourage you to use our buses that stop at the bus station at 21 Genała Ludwika Bogusławskiego St. This is a stone's throw from the old town, the market square and the bridge, which is one of the more recognizable points. The city. Ostroleka has a train station, of course, but this bus station is much closer to the city center, which makes traveling to Ostroleka this way make more sense.
.What is worth seeing in Annecy? Attractions of the city that should not be missed are the Palais de l'Ile, a 12th-century building with an interesting shape located on a small island in the Thiou River in the heart of Annecy's old town. The city also has many beautiful churches, such as the 16th-century St. Peter's Cathedral, the 17th-century Church of St. Francis de Sales and the neo-Romanesque Basilica of the Visitation. There is also a remarkable arboretum, or park, with numerous species of trees, including those rare and uncommon in Europe. Right next to it is the famous Bridge of Lovers (Pont des Amours), a footbridge located on the shore of Lake Annecy at the entrance to the Vassé Canal. While here, take advantage of the many opportunities for active recreation. You can ride a number of well-organized bicycle trails, visit nearby ravines and mountains, as well as engage in water sports.
