Attractions and Places To See around Marki - Top 20

as of 1st of March 2026 - mostly dry except for the section between Świętokrzyski bridge and the pedestrian crossing. really muddy there, but passable with enough skill and wide enough tires :) past Sląsko-Dąbrowski bridge the surface is very good, just the right amount of wet to be hard packed and neither sand nor water are a problem. the wind wasn't an issue as well: it was up to 8 m/s gusts WNW, so from the side of the river. in +7°C merino base layer, soft shell and fleece vest were more than enough. just cycling shorts and cotton trousers on top for the bottom were good too. here's to full of cycling spring, my fellow cyclists 🚴🏽

On February 14, 2015, a fire broke out on the Praga section of the Łazienkowski Bridge, where planks used during the renovation were stored. The fire spread to the wooden technical platforms and spread to the left bank of the bridge. The structure of two and a half spans of the bridge, the surface of the left-hand traffic lanes and the water main were destroyed. 144 firefighters participated in the rescue operation, and the fire was extinguished after 12 hours. The bridge was closed for repairs. The expert opinion showed that the fire, with a temperature of up to 1,000 degrees Celsius, caused damage to the steel structure, which required the dismantling of the destroyed elements and the construction of a new structure on the preserved pillars. The cost of the repair was estimated at PLN 180-210 million. The contract for the renovation was signed in April 2015, and the bridge was reopened to traffic on October 28, 2015. The exit to ul. The Miedzeszyński Embankment was opened in December. The investigation showed that the fire was the result of deliberate arson, but the perpetrators were not detected and the proceedings were discontinued. A fragment of the burnt bridge was placed in the Pontiseum in 2016.
