Palace Tower Warsaw

admin — Sat, 12 Apr 2008 14:43:26 +0000

One of Warsaws most impressing sights is the palace tower in the centre of the city.

The official name of the building is “Pałac Kultury i Nauki”, which means “Palace of Culture and Science” in English language.

The construction works started in 1952. 3 years later the whole tower was completed. The palace was built by 3.500 workers from Sovietunion. It was a gift from Stalin. Also the plans of the building had their origin in the Sovietunion.

Palace of Culture and Science is not loved by everyone in Warsaw. A lot of people see it as a monument of Russian occupation and complain about the destruction of the aesthetic balance of Warsaws old city.

Warsaw Travel Report

A story about Warsaw from a German traveller.

Things about Warsaw you never wanted to know.

Warsaw, the capital of Poland, is actually a nice and charmingly town, with many places of interest. There is the old castle, the gardens, the parks and the narrow lanes of the historical Old Town. It it is only very difficult there to come. The traffic in this gigantic town is just chaotic. There are coaches and roads, but they are hopelessly overcrowded.

There is also an underground, indeed, only one line. The second one is under construction, and the third one exists only to the heads of the planners.

If you do not want to walk, take a taxi. If you drive taxi, don’t complain about the price. Polish taxi drivers are offended very fast. Enjoy the nice city tour, thank the driver, and give him a generous tip. The parks of Warsaw are nice. In the afternoon they play there Chopin, and at night you are going to be be attacked.

The nightlife of Warsaw ist very attractive. Jazz is played in bars and there are restaurants with marvellous Polish food, which is very, very fat. But beer and vodka are inexpensive and the Poles are friendly people. They invite you, and you are drunk in no time.

Shopping is very expensive in Warsaw, but there are markets for Italian handbags and French perfumes.

There are many friendly men in Warsaw. They want to change your money in Polish money. Remain polite and say dear no thanks. Since, otherwise, you are cheated under guarantee.

In Warsaw there are many cinemas. There also great films run, unfortunately, only in the original language with Polish subtitles. With American films this goes, but how is it with Japanese films?

If you have visited Warsaw, you will never forget this.
