An intriguing trip addressed to those who want to know what the communist period in Warsaw and Poland was like. Political anecdotes, the ideas of rebuilding Warsaw after the Second World War and the absurdities of everyday life of ordinary residents of the city. We will drive a classic communist car, that is, a historic minivan – Nysa 522.

You will know the history of the symbol of Warsaw, the Palace of Culture and Science, which was created on the sea of post war ​​ruin.
