Park Łazienkowski


For the second half of our day out in Warsaw we visited Park Łazienkowski. According to Wikipedia this is the largest park in Warsaw but more importantly it was the summer home of the Polish King Stanisław August Poniatowski. Here you can see his palace which is know as the "Palace on the Water".


Throughout the park there are several sculptures including these stylized lamp posts of Pan. There is also a Roman amphitheater where plays and music are performed.


In addition to the sculptures there are also several Peacocks. These elegant yet stupid birds are beautiful but are a pain to cohabit with. There were several in one of the cities I lived. So, who's the poof on the right you ask? Well, that is no queer but rather the most famous Polish musician, Fryderyk Chopin. He is not gay, it was explained to me, but "Artistic". Right...Speaking of poofs, nice pink shirt huh?
