It is recommended to learn on which Sunday the businesses are open.
Cosmo Bar
In the evening we sat in a place called Cosmo Bar, a new bar in a new and special building.
The bar is dark, good music, you can sit with friends and talk.
Over summer there is a garden where you can sit outside.
Next to the garden, you will see a rope tied between two pillars on which two acrobatic sculptures go for an hour from side to side, fascinating.
We sat in the bar together with the Director-General of the Polish Ministry of Tourism and a representative of the Warsaw Municipality.
A quality place is recommended to go with friends or on dates.
