The cultural sites differ in scale. Galeria im. Tamary Sołoniewicz is housed in a former primary school building, so the former school itself is an integral part of the gallery’s connection to the area. Mickiewicza Street and Ogrodowa Street, by contrast, together form a historic street layout dating from the 18th century. This is not about a single building, but about the course of two named streets.

The Orthodox Church of St Nicholas adds another historical dimension: it dates from the 19th century and is located near Narewka. This makes it possible to place the 18th-century street layout and the 19th-century church in their historical context, while the gallery offers a different connection through its location in a former primary school.

There are different ways to spend time by the water. A recreational area with a beach is located by the river in Narewka. You can go kayaking on the Narewka River from the canoe station. The recreational area with a beach is for spending time on the riverbank, while the canoe station offers a trip on the water; this distinction can help you choose according to your preferred activity.
