Beyond the Castle Square lies the real Old Town, full of narrow, cobbled streets which lead to tiny squares filled with people and restaurants, and hiding mysterious symbols of Warsaw. It is also common to hear soulful and melodious tunes from musicians’ instruments around the corners and on the streets. One of the main areas here is the Market Square in which is located the bronze statue of the Mermaid of Warsaw, which is widely considered Warsaw’s symbol and is also present on the coast of arms. Legend has it that a fisherman found the mermaid and saved her, and she stayed on to protect the city.
