Culture & Traditions

Experience Poland's warm hospitality and rich cultural traditions.

Polish people are friendly and welcoming to visitors. Family is very important, and it is common to have gatherings on Sunday over a meal. As you travel, keep in mind that religion is important in Poland, with a majority Roman Catholic population throughout the country.

When it comes to communicating with others, Polish is the official language of Poland. However, in some parts you may be able to find English, Russian, and French speakers. Outsiders may find that Polish people speak in a very direct manner. It is important to keep in mind that this is the communication style, as they value directness as a form of connecting with others.
