Heading to Euro 2012? Make sure you make a toilet stop...
The toilets in Warsaw’s main train station have been given a facelift ahead of the visit of footie fans to Poland for the European Championships next year.
THE TOILET IN Warsaw’s main train station might not be seeing much football action next year, but they’ve still been given a facelift ahead of the European Championships in Poland next year.
The refurbishments are part of a €12 million makeover for the communist-era station, which was built in the seventies.
