    This building is worth seeing, it is an architectural mishmash. It is huge, much larger than first appears. I only wish there was a display on the building itself and its use during communist times.

    Small, but important reminder of Warsaw’s Jewish History. It is the only pre-WWII synagogue still standing. The interior is simple, but beautiful example of the time period. The synagogue is still in use by the Jewish Community. Full visit is about 20 minutes.

    Huge building that is surprisingly easy to miss on Krakowskie Przedmiescie because there are so many fine buildings. You can walk around some parts of it for free.

    Very famous and loved Polish Composer. Museum worth a visit. It is interactive museum with special section for kids. Very interesting overall. Plus beautiful architecture inside the Palace. Next to the Palace is a fountain with duck sculpture as this part of Warsaw is connected to the Legend of a Golden Duck. Pretty walk in a park. It is half way down Tamka street and very close to Royal Tract though it is easy to miss. Look for very high walls.

    This striking Neo-Renaissance viaduct allows descending from the hill. It was completed in 1905. The viaduct is known for the many beautiful sculptures that attract attention.

    The patron of the viaduct is Stanislaw Markiewicz, a doctor and social activist, and one of the founders of the Warsaw Hygiene Society. He was also the organizer of the first summer camps for children in Poland.

    This impressive palace was located next to our hotel, Sofitel. The building is considered one of the most distinguished examples of rococo architecture in Warsaw.

    The palace was completed in 1705 but in 1939 it burned after being shelled by German artillery. The building was reconstructed in 1948-59.

    Today, it houses the Academy of Fine Arts. There are 30,000 works from all fields of visual art: painting, sculpture, graphics, drawing, posters, architecture, artistic crafts, and industrial design. The museum is located in the palace's attic.

    The orangery is one of the most beautiful buildings in Lazienki Park. It has a museum there now which we didnt visit to be honest, but we did spend time in the gardens which were quite wonderful.
    Lazienki is a gem, it really is and strolling around it is a real joy. The Orangery may be one of its finest buildings but there are so many more to see.

    This, relatively small, church was built by order of queen mary by the Dutch architect Tylman von Gameren, also known as Gamerski. It is baroque in style and is located next to the market square of the New Town.

    I stopped here during my walk along the Royal Route. It has an excellent location, with the building facing the main street itself. Located in front of it, is the statute of Copernicus, a great Polish inventor.

    Took some selfies here with this Palace and Statute in the background.

    If you like looking at buildings/architecture then these might be of interest. If you’re not and well travelled, I wouldn’t recommend especially if you’re on holiday.

    In the ‘courtyard’ area you’ll find the photo opportunity with WARSAW❤️

    @March 2023…sadly NO access to upper/top floor to see views. Also not the right time of year/no longer open?…where others have reviewed the water park feature outside.

    Heavy fighting took place around this building during the war. While reconstruction of the Old Town was proceeding it was decided to leave one section of the facade in the damaged extent, as it was at war's end.

    It is a powerful symbol and very redolent of troubled times. The pockmarks of war are plain to see.

    I believe them to be mostly reconstruction, at least the upper parts, not to mention the barbican. Still, they look nice and add to the atmosphere of the old town.
