This opportunity will be taken by many Polish cities and regions, including Poznań, Wielkopolska and Poznań County that will invite everyone to explore its undiscovered and still unknown locations. Lubuskie province will also promote its destinations suitable for weekend trips or holidays, because this is a land of lakes - a real "El Dorado" for those who love water sports and fishing. TOUR SALON will also show the tourist offer of Mazowsze and other regions such as Beskid Mountains, the Land of Loess Gorges, Lublin, Toruń or Cieszyn Silesia, which have received the title of Polish Tourist Brands.
