Łódź
This somewhat gritty city– it’s pronounced `wooch - located 140km (87 miles) southwest of Warsaw, hides a treasure trove of palatial mansions, art nouveau public buildings and museums. By all means, visit the vanguard art galleries but the Central Museum of Textiles in an early 19th-century spinning mill is where the city’s heart lies and the Jewish Quarter is worth a stroll around. Frequent trains form Warsaw complete the journey in around two hours.
