Tykocin Castle is one of the greatest attractions in Podlasie, picturesquely situated on the Narew River. Originally a 15th-century stronghold of the Gasztołd family, it was rebuilt in the 16th century into a Renaissance royal castle of Sigismund Augustus, which housed, among other things, the royal treasury and arsenal. Later, the castle belonged to Stefan Czarniecki and then the Branicki family, but after numerous wars and fires, it fell into ruin. Modern reconstruction restored it to its former glory and allowed the creation of a museum, restaurant, and observation tower with a panoramic view of the Narew Valley.

Crosses were erected to commemorate an important event or to confirm one's religious commitment. They were built in gratitude for saving a life or receiving grace. They were also boundary markers that marked the end and beginning of a village or as road signs. Karawaks protected against epidemics. In Poland, there is also a custom of erecting crosses by the roads to commemorate tragic deaths in road accidents. Crosses are made of various materials. An example are crosses with Christ cut out of sheet metal. They were mainly created in the period from the second half of the 19th to the mid-20th century.

The Narew River is 484 km long and flows through Belarus and Poland, where it joins the Vistula near Warsaw. Its sources are in the Białowieża Forest, and its riverbed is full of meanders, oxbow lakes and branches. The Narew is considered one of the last multi-channel rivers in Europe. In the river valley you can find many species of birds, which is why part of its course is protected as the Narew National Park. It is a unique place for lovers of nature and peace.

Beautiful views from the tower. The tower can serve as shelter from light rain – it has two levels. A monocular is a good idea. You can see many birds from it. Sometimes a fox jumps after mice.

Beautiful distant views of the valley. At dawn you can see various animals in the distance, deer, moose and sometimes deer, but it is worth having a monocular or binoculars.
