Title: Warsaw - spring 2008
Post by: Feroxx on February 18, 2009, 02:22:20 AM
This photos i made almost year ago. I wanted to show less popular places in Warsaw, but very interesting in my opinion.

One of my favorite skyscrapers in Warsaw - Rondo 1

Waliców street, almost in center of the city. Neighborhood looks like Second War ends only few months ago.

Mother of God, small chapels are very popular in old tenements in Warsaw.

This tenement probably will be demolished soon.

Interesting mural, in second plan you see Hotel Intercontinental (170 m) and construction site of Złota (gold) 44 (192m).

Próżna (Vain) street, this neighborhood during Second Wrold War was in Warsaw Getto borders, tenements survived becouse this part of ghetto was closed before Uprising in ghetto begun.

Great pictures!  :thumbsup:
I like the contrast between the old and run down tenements and the new modern skyscrapers in Warsaw.
We had a tram line here too until 1982, most of the tracks had been torn off in the recent years, but some of the lines are still visible.
