For me the district is well worth a visit. No massive skyscrapers, not many ( if at all ) souvenir shops but plenty to see. National football stadium, Wendell chocolate factory ( and shop to try the great chocolate drink ), street art, the old Rozycki Bazaar ( bit of a let down ), Vodka Museum and St Florian Cathedral. There’s a good shopping mall in the centre with food hall and usual shops. Wonder around the old streets with local restaurants and bars, plenty of trams. Lots of history, the old shrines down the alley ways and stone dwarfs that act as gate stoppers.

Like others on this page we had read that Praga is like the revitalised Bohemian part of Warsaw, similar to Uzipis in Vilnius. But it is nothing like it. We had seen on line and on google maps that there was a lot of street art but we could only find a couple of examples. The Cathedral of St Michael the Archangel was impressive but we were there late afternoon and so could not enter as it was closed, and there were good views of the old town as we walked back over the bridge, but really a wasted few hours. Perhaps if we had visited with a guide it would have been better.
