This was suppose to be the Main Street for shopping but I think there were to little shops for that. Magnificent street though especially with all the Christmas decoration and all the grand houses. A lot of restaurants and cafe, but they felt very touristic.

We went there during the day so I guess my review isn't objective, lots of stores, bars, restaurants but not so many cafes. For a capital city street I expected much more. It's free to walk the street so go for it, I'm sure though that if you have visited other European capitals you will not see the point.

Nowy Świat, or the New World Street, is Warsaw's main thoroughfare. It is a lively street full of stately buildings and popular restaurants. This is also the main hangout place among locals. A weekend stroll is particularly relaxing.

There are lots of shops or places to spend some time at. You can go to Shisha bar or eat McDonald's or even go to the gym. It's close to the old town and to 'pawilony' which are basically bars with heavy alcohol.

Long central street running from the more modern parts of Warsaw through to Old Town.

There are many bars and shops, plus great old churches and museums. The area is a must do for visitors to the city, for architecture and culture.

I'm sure Warsaw has a lot to offer. Especially the Old Town part is a real eye candy; definitely a place you would like to walk around in and sightsee on foot. Trust me – you don't want to do this. If you ever attempt to cross the street, you will first have to stand on the curb for hours. No driver will care to stop or even slow down to let you go. If the crosswalk finally appears to be clear, look three times left and right, then run as fast as you can! If a car suddenly appears, chances are its driver will accelerate in an attempt to run you over. Take utmost care if you ever have to cross the street in Warsaw. Don't trust anyone. Pedestrians DO have the right of way in Poland – I've been informed – but 'nobody cares'. I will not visit this place again as long as the authorities don't tackle this issue, and I strongly advise you not to go there either. Unless you're suicidal, it will not be a pleasant visit.

Walking down this street was unbelievable. Such a beautiful, lively street, full of beautiful Polish people. Lots of shops, cafes, bars... just make sure you check out the little hidden graffitied lanes, we found some awesome bars and music shops hidden behind Nowy Swiat...

The street is so lively to walk around. It gets crowded on a Friday night, leading in to the weekend. Its the best in the evening. With the street filled with pubs, clubs and eateries. A must visit when you are in Warsaw..

Nowy Swiat is a cool swanky street. Depending on which direction you are heading, you will either end up at the park or at Old Town. Either direction, you will see lots of cool old buildings mixed with modern appeal, nice restaurants, cool stores, the University of Warsaw, lots of friendly people as well as one of the best maintained streets I have ever seen! Very clean and very nice.
