We share with our Polish neighbours beautiful Tatra mountains. When you are in Poland don't miss this beautiful site of Poland.
I suggest that you also visit Zakopane and Krakow.
Overally safe place, educated people and of course beautiful Slavic women.

With so many wonders mentioned by others, that's the major observation you keep in mind.
The reflection of dark and gloomy place you call home.
I bet it rains a lot too...

I like the fact that they're so homogeneous. 99% of their population are ethnic Poles.

Actually, they're not. Quite a few are Prussian descendants, meaning Balts. Poland absorbed several provinces of western Prussia, plus, many Prussians fled to Poland to escape the ethnic cleansing the Teutonic Knights were carrying out against the indigenous Prussians in the 13th and 14th Centuries. So there's a percentage of Balts mixed in there, I don't think a population study has ever been done on that score.
