Vacation Rentals In Greater Poland Voivodeship
Wielkopolskie Voivodeship, or Greater Poland, is a province located in the West of Poland. It is, perhaps, one of the most beautiful regions of the country, made up of pretty towns, and flat plains intermittently interspersed with forests and lakes. Located in the Warta River basin, it was the home to the Polanie tribe, an ancient Slavic tribe that became the basis of the Polish nation. At the centre of the province is Gniezno, Poland's first capital, which is an ancient and lovely town and Greater Poland's current capital, Poznań, is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the entire country. This is a region of colourful buildings, museums, monuments, friendly locals and adventure and a perfect holiday destination.

Poznań has a rich history dating back to the end of the 9th century and is littered with architectural beauties and monuments from all eras. The Old Town is worth a visit and is full of stunning gothic, baroque and 20th century architectural gems. Poznań is also home to the oldest polish church and cathedral; Ostrów Tumski, or Cathedral Island, which is famous as where Poznań was founded; the King's Castle; the stunning Old Market Square; the Archaeological Museum; the Painting and Sculpture Museum; the Dalineum, a museum dedicated to Dali; endless breweries; and countless festivals throughout the year such as the Bread Festival, Christmas Market, International Animated Film Festival, Kid Film Festival and Summer Town-Hall Concerts.
Another highlight of the region is the “Greater Poland Ring”, an incredible boating route in Poland that is ideal for motor boat and kayak users. You will also find magnificent castles and palaces such as Kórnik, Rogalin, Gołuchów, Rydzyna, Pawłowice, Antonin and Śmiełów. For outdoorsy types, there is the Wielkopolski National Park, a national park that protects the wildlife of the Greater Poland Lakes and there are endless impressive cycling trails around the country to choose from. Some more unique attractions are the only bee-keeping museum in Poland in Swarzędz, Wolsztyn's working steam trains depot (the only one in Europe still in operation), Nowy Tomyśl which is home to the biggest basket of the world and the oldest wooden church in the country at Tarnowo Pałuckie.
