The very middle of Warsaw has been rebuilt "as it was" - they were
putting the finishing touches to some medieval walls when I went
3-4 years ago - but only the very middle.


Round the railway station was nothing but a monument to Stalinist
iconoclasm when I was there in 2002.


Yes, but the station isn't in the old town. Google Maps shows how
it works reasonably well, with the tiny "old" bit with castle,
walls and square near the river, and then everything else around it.


Yes, they were rebuilding the castle when we were there. Many visitors get
their first impressions at the station of course.
