'''Praga Po?udnie''' [http://www.pragapld.waw.pl/] is a district of Warsaw. It is quite diverse: while '''Goc?aw''' and '''Goc?awek''' are relatively new residential areas built in the 1960s and 1970s, '''Kamionek''' and '''Grochow''' have a history on par with other settlements that then formed Warsaw, like ''Ujazdow'' and ''Mokotow'', '''Saska K?pa''' is a prestigious mansionesque area that is home to many embassies and '''Olszynka Grochowska''' is mostly a forest.
