our key Warsaw landmark, one of the tallest buildings, funded by the Russians in early 1950s after WW2. The urban legend says that the Soviets offered the Warsaw authorities a subway or this palace, and they chose the palace 馃檪 and so now our entire subway system consists of only ~30 stations, as the construction started in the 1990s 馃檪 You can have a ride all the way up to the viewing terrace and see a panorama of Warsaw

Metropolitain building / Opera / Pi艂sudski Square / Tomb of the Unknown Soldier - one of the largest squares in Warsaw is where Pope John Paul II had his first address to the nation after his election. On the square is the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, remains of the royal Saski Palace, now commemorating all unnamed soldiers lost during WW2. On the other side of the square, you will see the Metropolitain building made almost entirely out of glass, designed by Norman Foster, sitting right next to the building housing our National Opera since the 19th century
