Lublin Voivodeship, First-level administrative division in eastern Poland.
The Lublin Voivodeship is an administrative unit in the southeastern part of the country, stretching from the Vistula River to the border with Belarus. This territory includes flat farmland in the north, wooded hills in the center, and wetlands in the east.
This administrative area took its present form in the late nineties when several smaller units were merged together. The merger united territories that had belonged to different spheres of rule over the centuries.
This region takes its name from the capital city and shows in many towns market squares where vendors offer regional handmade goods. Visitors can observe different customs among the communities living here, reflected in the architecture and local celebrations.
Travelers find train stations and bus terminals in larger towns, from which regular connections depart to other parts of the country. The area works well for trips by personal vehicle, as many settlements are reachable by paved roads.
The two national parks here protect rare plants and animals that are hardly found in other parts of the country. Some of these protected areas lie close to international borders and form cross-border ecological corridors.
