Royal Route
For centuries, Warsaw was the home of Polish rulers, after the former capital Krakow. Walking along the Royal Route is the best way to explore Warsaw’s most beautiful historical places. The famous Royal Route connects three former Royal residences, which is about 11 km long, starting from the Royal Castle located in the Warsaw Old Town, via Łazienki Park’s Palace on the Island, ending at the Wilanów Palace. Moreover, the route covers a number of historic landmarks as well, such as St. Anna’s Church that survived the war, Holy Cross Church where the heart of Chopin rested, the Warsaw University campus, and the Presidential Palace. Most of Warsaw’s tourist attractions are located along this stretch. Sightseeing along the breathtaking Royal Route is a wonderful experience not to be missed.
