A recent survey has shown that the busiest shopping street in the world is not in London. New York, or Paris, but in Warsaw, Poland. Nowy Swiat, which means New World, has an incredible 14,000 Poles walking down it every hour. It's a lovely place to shop. The pavements are very wide. There are statues, palaces, attractive town houses and high-class restaurants. The buildings are not too high. They look old, but in fact the whole city was rebuilt after World War II. There aren't any billboards or neon lights. There isn't any loud music, and there aren't many tourists. People think that: Polish shops have nothing to sell, so nobody comes shopping here. The world does not know about this paradise for shoppers yet. It is now possible to buy almost everything in Warsaw. There are a lot of shops from the West, but the interesting thing is that Polish manufacturers are also now producing high quality goods. They are good because the products are not mass produced for world consumption. Nowy Swiat has a lot of small shops, specialist shops and chic shops. It hasn't got the huge department stores that sell the same products everywhere.
