When visiting Bialystok, you must visit the Gromada and Cristal Hotel, the most extravagent hotels in the city. These hotels not only host accomidations but also fine dining, dancing and the most important a great atmosphere.
The churches in Bialystok are incredible and so beautiful, even if you are not a church person it's a must that you do see atleast one of them. Not only do I miss my family that resides in Bialystok, but also the side street shops in which you can find absolutely everything, and ofcourse the beauty of nature that you can really experience just outside the city, and mostly clean air.

The road of the Tatars

Imagine a typical Eastern Polish village - wooden hamlets, meadows, woods. Bohoniki has all this, but lacks the Christian crosses of either Catholics or Orthodoxes that are so familiar in this region elsewhere. Little wonder - Bohoniki is one of the twi remaining Tatar villages and taking pride in its wooden mosque instead. The Tatars live in this area for more than 300 years, the privilege of settlement a reward by the Polish crown. Aside from Bohoniki, there is yet another Tatar village, Kruszczyniany, about 25 miles away
