Across the bridge over the Vistula river lies the neighbourhood of Praga. It has its own atmosphere, and especially when a local street festival is held, worth to explore.
Praga differs from most of Warsaw in that destruction in World War II was less here, allowing you to actually see buildings older than 1945. Under Communist rule, problematic people like alcoholics and former convicts were sent to Praga, and the area used to have a bad reputation. But as happens more often, those places have a potential of revival and change, often attracting creative minds and imaginative people. When I came off the bridge, my first impression was that I had just entered a well-kept suburb: clean, well-maintained apartment blocks lined the streets, where I also found the Florian Cathedral and the unique St. Mary Magdalene's orthodox church. Walking on, I ended up on Wilenski square, the local transportation hub, but also giving an insight in the neighbourhood. Here, you can see an impressive war monument, an uninspiring but characteristic 1950s apartment block, the domes and golden crosses of the orthodox church, and a modern French hyperstore at the same time.
