Nowy Świat, Krakowskie Przedmieście, Chmielna

Nowy Świat and its extension - Krakowskie Przedmieście - are the main communication arteries for tourists visiting Warsaw, being part of the Royal Route. They lead to the Old Town and the Royal Castle, which is one of the top 3 most popular attractions in Warsaw among residents and tourists, according to a report prepared by the Warsaw Tourism Office.* Nowy Świat Street is crossed by Chmielna Street, connecting Nowy Świat with Marszałkowska Street, where the Palace of Culture and Science is located at the intersection of Świętokrzyska, Marszałkowska and Aleje Jerozolimskie streets; this area benefits from, among

others, theaters, a museum and an observation tower, which was visited by over 675,000 people in 2022.* Nearby, from the side of Marszałkowska Street, on the northern side of Plac Defilad, a new home for the Museum of Modern Art is being built, which should be ready in the second half of 2024 and will include, among others, art exhibitions, a cinema and a café. In the future, next to this investment, a new building of the Variety Theater is to be built as part of the New Centre of Warsaw project, which will connect the Palace of Culture and Science with the Old Town, creating a representative space.
