The Republic of Poland is a country in Central Europe bounded to the north by Russia (Kaliningrad Oblast) and the Baltic Sea; to the north-east by Belarus and Lithuania; to the south-east by the Ukraine; to the south by Slovakia; to the south-west by the Czech Republic; and to the west by Germany.

Poland is a increasingly popular destination along with many of its neighbours such as the Czech Republic, with an increase in the popularity of weekend breaks in Europe due to increases in low cost flights from many airports in the UK.
