Details

Location: Warszawa      by: Giuseppe Marzulli
Area: Poland      Date: 13 July 2013
The Palace of Culture and Science (Palac Kultury i Nauki, in Polish), 237 meters, in Warsaw is the tallest building in Poland and the sixth tallest building in the European Union.
The building was originally known as the Joseph Stalin Palace of Culture and Science. Many Poles do not like the building, because they considered it to be a symbol of Soviet domination.
The terrace on the 30th floor, at 114 metres, is a well-known tourist attraction with a panoramic view of the city. But taking panos is very difficult, because there are a lot of barriers.
The Poles say, jokingly, that the best view of Warsaw is from this Palace, because it is the only point of the city where the building itself does not obscure the view.

Comments

As a German one can hardly complain about how Warsaw looks like.

Intersting and well-done panoramic, anyway!
