* Relatively useful facts about Poland

The name of Poland comes from the name of the Polanie tribe. In IX – X century there existed a few pre-state territorial organizations. Polanie, who settled near Gniezno, managed to unite most tribes dwelling in the area and established the state reigned by the Piast dynasty. The first Piast prince to be mentioned by contemporary historical sources, Mieszko I was baptized in 966, thus starting the process of Poland’s Christianization and placing the Polish state in the political system of Central Europe...

Poland conjures up different images to different people. Some may remember the dull grey uniformity of the Communist era, or TV pictures of strikes, bread queues and Martial Law. Still others with longer memories will remember the desperation of a nation torn apart by the Second World War, much of its population forced to flee their homes.

But ask the visitors of today and you will find a very different picture. Poland is an ideal tourist destination, with something for everyone. The silvery white beaches of the Baltic coast are clean and unspoilt –and very child friendly. The Polish Lake District in the east is the place to go for sailing, canoeing, white water rafting – or if you want to catch a glimpse of the wild bison, elks and bears that still live there in their natural habitat. Further south you come to Krakow, jewel in the crown of the Polish heritage, a city that miraculously survived the ravages of the Second World War intact, and was listed as a World heritage site by UNESCO in 1978. And on the southern border with the Czech Republic, the Tatra mountain range offers a wealth of hiking and skiing opportunities.

Poland has transformed itself into a prime tourist destination, which thousands of western Europeans are ‘discovering’ every year. Poles are proud of their history and proud to be once more at the very heart of Europe, but they are also friendly and welcoming. Summers are hot in Poland (around 30-35 C) and winters are cold (as low as -10,-20 C sometimes) but the country is prepared for it. Sleek new electric trams whisk early morning commuters to work, efficient and punctual intercity trains cover the country.

The 2005 GDP at an estimated level of 500 billion dollars means Poland is still low in per capita terms (£6,900) compared with other European countries. However, Poland has recently enjoyed an extremely high GDP growth (about 7% in 2007), which ensures further development of the country and continuation of already aggressive real-estate value appreciation, which started with Poland joining the European Union as a full member in 2004.

Industry experts indicate that in the next 10 years the average growth of the Polish real-estate value will be 250%. This is likely to be sustained as a result of investment in the road and motorway network, bringing the standard of Poland’s transport infrastructure up to that of the best in Europe in the next decade

Investment risks always exist, but with Poland being a relatively disaster-safe area located in the centre of a stable political organization they are minimal. In the next 2 to 3 years a little slowdown in the price appreciation may occur, related to the increased amount of construction work in Poland. However, with the actual shortage of living space estimated at about 2.2 million apartments, coupled with an annual build of only about 120,000 flats, property prices can only continue to rise.

Poland has a moderate climate with both maritime and continental elements. This is due to humid Atlantic air which collides over its territory with dry air from the Eurasian interior. As a result, the weather tends to be capricious and the seasons may look quite different in consecutive years. This is particularly true for winters, which are either wet, of the oceanic type, or - less often - sunny, of the continental type. Generally, in north and west Poland the climate is predominantly maritime, with gentle, humid winters and cool, rainy summers, while the eastern part of the country has distinctly continental climate with harsh winters and hotter, drier summers.

The average annual temperature in Poland ranges from 7-10°C in the hilly Pomeranian and Masurian lake districts and in the uplands to 10-12°C in the belt of the sub-Carpathian basins, the Silesian Lowland and the Wielkopolska Lowland. Only in the upper parts of the Carpathians and Sudetes is it about 0°C (Kasprowy Wierch, -0.8°C; Mt Sniezka, -0.4°C). So, except for the mountains, the regional differences of average temperatures are small.

The hottest month is July with the average temperature standing at 20-30 The coldest area in July is the mountains, where the air temperature drops as the altitude increases (on average by 0.6°C for every 100 metres). In the summit areas of the Tatras and Sudetes, the average air temperature in July is just about 9°C. July is also cooler in areas adjacent to the Baltic (about 16°C), which is caused by the cold sea waters. The hottest area is central Poland, with the temperatures exceeding 25-30°C.
