The best thing that's changed over the past 7 years or so is that the road infrastructure has improved vastly, with dual carriageways and flyovers everywhere. So now you can zip around the outskirts of the city and hardly notice the ugliness at all.<br /><br />If you want a (relatively) inspiring town in this neck of the woods try Supraśl – 10km out of Białystok. A truly relaxing "rezort" as the Poles like to call them, low rise, mainly wooden buildings, and with an Orthodox monastery dating from the 16th century (reconstructed). And you're never more than a kilometre or so from the huge Knyszyn forest which more or less surrounds the town. <br /><br /><br /> Sigismundonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2650609952674727820.post-73240377535665049262015-02-06T12:45:09.878+01:002015-02-06T12:45:09.878+01:00@ Mat
