- Poznan - Poznan is the capital of Wielkopolska province, nowadays a major economic, commercial, scientific, cultural and tourism hub in Western Poland. It is famous for the country’s most important trade-fair complex and possibly the most spectacular Renaissance Town Hall you’ll ever see. Its picturesque Old Town amazes tourist all year round, even during winter time when Christmas markets and Ice Festival make it a perfect place to visit. In 2019 Poznań was voted 5th best city on the Best European Travel Destinations list. And it’s worth to mention that Best European Travel Destinations chose Poznan as one of the best Christmas markets destination for 2021. In Poznan you will find also origins of Polish state, Poland’s only painting by Claude Monet and the delicious regional sweet St. Martin croissants. Make no mistake, this 1,000-year-old city on the River Warta has much to be proud of – it even has its own local dialect.
