Podlachia Voivodeship

A natural treasure in northeastern Poland, famed for Białowieża Primeval Forest and its European bison.

Podlaskie Voivodeship lies in northeastern Poland, bordering Belarus and Lithuania, with Białystok as its capital. Białowieża Forest is one of Europe's best-preserved lowland primeval forests and a World Heritage Site, where you can see European bison. The Biebrza Marshes are a prime birdwatching spot, and the Augustów Canal and Lake Wigry are great for boating. The region blends many cultures, with Orthodox churches and Tatar wooden mosques. Spring is best for birdwatching and summer for boating. You can get there by train from Warsaw or by car.
