  • TREASURE-HUNTING CITY GAME IN TARGÓWEK

    Warsaw, as one of European cities, has a long list of attractions to visit by the travellers. The most popular places, located mainly in the city centre, attract mostly the tourists who visit the city for the first time. But what if you have been there many times before or you have lived in Warsaw? What if you are interested in tourist attractions different than usual ones? You should visit some hidden and less busy places. A great opportunity to do that was organized in Warsaw on the 4th of October 2020, when the Local Urbact Group, in “Come in!” project, invited tourists and inhabitants to join the city game named “Meet the recesses of Industrial Part of Targówek District”.
