Warsaw City Tour

It was said that 89% of Warsaw was destroyed in World War II.  The city I saw was relatively in modern architecture.  For some reason, they seemed all in gray color tone.  Not as populated as other 4 capitals visited in this trip.  So, there was not a lot traffic congestions and the sites visited have few tourist.  The city was peaceful and quiet.
Here are some photos taken from a city tour: 
Warsaw city streets which includes Warsaw’s Palace of Culture, Stalin’s gift: Built by 3,500 Soviet workers after Poland’s capital was flattened by Nazi bombs, the building now stands as a contested symbol of the country’s complex past.  A plastic made palm tree; Lazienki Park to view Chopin’s statue and Jozef Pilsudski statue; Umschlagplatz Monument in the Warsaw Ghetto;  Monument to the Ghetto Heroes and Polin Museum of the History of Polish Jew.
