Warsaw, Poland has seen an effort in reconstruction so to maintain an extensive history from the 13th to 20th centuries and we can surely appreciate this walking around the Old Town. Stare up at the defensive walls surrounding one of the oldest castles in Europe, the massive Malbork Castle. Then see what kind of beauty this country has in store when we enter the surreal landscapes of Northern Poland's Kaszuby region, which is also known as "the land of a thousand lakes". Meet the ancient group of Slavonic Balts, who have resisted outside influences that may have altered their own unique culture over the years.
The magic of the Baltic is exposed before our very eyes as we visit the majestic cathedrals and memorials of Lithuania, Latvia and Estonia. A trip across the Baltic takes us straight to Finland, where we taste a history that is brimming with antiquity. See how Saint Petersburg, Russia, is larger than life as we are bombarded with the collection of 370,000 pieces of art in the Russian Museum. Discover the range of architectural style of Yaroslavl, which is older than Moscow, and experience the exhilaration of standing under the shadows of the great Kremlin Wall.
