Kevarim
Jewish cemetery near the Old Powazki. Established in 1809, it is one of the largest Jewish cemeteries in the world. Spread over an area of nearly 44,000 square feet (3160 square meters), the cemetery was left largely intact by the Nazis and includes the graves and tombs of a quarter of a million people, including the great Rabbanim of Warsaw as well as many secular giants in literature and the arts.

The Jewish Ghetto
The infamous Warsaw Ghetto, the scene of the only organized uprising.
On the left side of the Praga River, where the Ghetto used to be, you can visit several monuments commemorating the Jews of Warsaw, including the Monument over the Ghetto Heroes at Zamenhof Square, and Umschlagplatz, a memorial raised at the very spot where Warsaw Jews were gathered in 1943, loaded on cattle wagons and transported to the death camp at Treblinka. It is still possible to see how Jews lived in Warsaw ulica Prozna, a street left largely intact from before the Holocaust.

Looking to make an overnight stopover to go to Lizensk.  Does it make sense?  We would be landing in Warsaw.  How much does it cost to hire a driver and where would you recommend to sleep the night?  We would be landing 9 AM and flight back home is 4 PM the following day.

It could be exhausting, as it’s about a four-hour drive each way (302km). The easiest option is to book a round trip from WAW to RZE (Rzeszów) (it's about a 30 minute flight) and from there, it’s 40km by car.

Lizhensk is called Leżajsk in Polish, plenty of hotels there.

Rzeszów has nicer hotels. Lizensk has the kosher hotel where you can probably order food too.

Holiday Inn City Center, 10 min walk to chabad or Rama Shul. It's bookable with IHG very decent and has special entrance for Shabbos, door to room and fridge light you would have to cover or something. There are closer ones but I stayed here and enjoyed the walk.
