Growing physical and mental separation of urban and rural worlds, creates a need for restoring the ancient positive relationship between the two. Consecutive models of urban development, particularly in the XIX century, present a need for a new paradigm in the field of urbanized land use planning. Recently, the policies of the local authorities in the Austrian capital city - Vienna, demonstrated a new way of including urban rural areas and agriculture production into the system of protected green spaces within the urban perimeter. Positive results from the Viennese experiment can be a reference for the city of Warsaw, having still multiple remnants of its rural past and culture. Seen as an asset, the rural traditions in Warsaw, could be a source of inspiration for its new identity, as an "agropolis", unique in Europe in this respect. Such modern understating of city farming would be an improvement on the city environment, enrichment of urban landscape and biodiversity, as well as cultural diversity, an opening of new recreation possibilities for city dwellers. As a consequence, rural settlements will be better understood and rehabilitated.
