Vistula River
Follow the silver thread of Poland's longest river as the aircraft aligns for the approach into Warsaw.

Vast, colorful mosaics of agricultural fields that change hues dramatically with the seasons.
Lublin Cityscape
Views of eastern Poland's largest city, including its historic center and expanding urban sprawl.
