Market Square in Old Town, Warsaw, Poland (@ Keren Su/Corbis)
comments,
- In 1944, Adolf Hitler insisted this city “has to be pacified, that is, razed to the ground.”""Look at how it has risen from the ashes…
- The colourful market square before you is the perfect setting for an introduction to Poland\s capital.""Shall we take a stroll along the cobblestone streets?
- Which famous scientist studied at a clandestine university here in a bid to avoid the clutches of the occupying Russian Empire?""She later became the first person to receive two Nobel Prizes, in separate fields of science
- This place was virtually wiped out during World War II, when 80% of its buildings were destroyed.""Is it any wonder some people call it The Phoenix City?
