Poland, officially the Republic of Poland, is a country in Eastern Europe. This country is bordered by Germany to the west; the Czech Republic and Slovakia to the south; Ukraine, Belarus and Lithuania to the east; and the Baltic Sea and Kaliningrad Oblast, a Russian exclave, to the north.
Poland’s territory extends across several geographical regions — from lowlands and flat seacoast in the northwest to the Tatra Mountains as highest part of the Carpathians in the south of the country. The Polish mountains are an ideal venue for hiking, skiing and mountain biking and attract millions of tourists every year from all over the world.
Baltic beaches and resorts are popular locations for fishing, canoeing, kayaking and a broad-range of other water-themed sports. With almost ten thousand lakes covering more than one hectare (2.47 acres) each, Poland has one of the highest numbers of lakes in the world. In Europe, only Finland has a greater density of lakes. The largest lakes, covering more than 100 square kilometers (39 sq mi), are Lake Sniardwy and Lake Mamry in Masuria, as well as Lake Lebsko and Lake Drawsko in Pomerania.
More than 1% of Poland’s territory, 3,145 square kilometers (1,214 sq mi), is protected within 23 national parks. In this respect, Poland ranks the first in Europe. Thus, the Bialowieza Forest, which is shared with Belarus, is one of Poland's natural highlights. It is one of the last remaining true wilderness areas anywhere in Europe and consists of an immense forest range with evergreens and broad-leaved trees. On top of that, it is also home to some rare and endangered animal including mammals like the wolf, the lynx and the otter. But the creature that is really special is the European Bison, of which there are several hundreds reintroduced into the park. Therefore, the park is on the UNESCO World Heritage List.

The official language of Poland is Polish. Foreign visitors should be aware that virtually all official information will usually be in Polish only.

Most of young people and teenagers know English well enough. Older Poles, however, especially those outside the main cities, will speak little or no English at all. However, it's highly possible that they speak either German or Russian which were taught in schools as the main foreign languages until the 1990s. French and Spanish are also very popular.
Religions:
Most Poles — approximately 89% — are members of the Roman Catholic Church. Though rates of religious observance are currently lower than they have been in the past, Poland remains one of the most devoutly religious countries in Europe. Religious minorities include Polish Orthodox, various Protestants , Jehovah’s Witnesses, Eastern Catholics, Mariavites, Polish Catholics, Jews, and Muslims.

Tips:
As a rule, Polish restaurants and bars do not include gratuity in the total of the check, so your servers will be pleased if you leave them a tip along with the payment. On average, you should tip 10% of the total bill. If you tip 15% or more, you probably should have received excellent service. Also, saying "Dziekuje" ("thank you") after paying means that you do not expect any change back.
Visas:
Poland is a member of the European Union and has joined the Schengen Agreement. That means that a visa to any other signatory state of the Schengen Agreement is valid in Poland too. No visa is required for citizens of other EU member states, and those of some selected nations with whom the European Union or Poland have special treaties. Among them are Australia, Canada, USA, Costa Rica, Hong Kong, Israel, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, and South Korea. Contrary, citizens of CIS and many other countries must obtain a visa in order to enter and stay in Poland legally.
