Palace of Culture end Science
It was given by Stalin as a „gift from the Soviet Union to Polish nation”, and it is the youngest monument in Warsaw, as it is just barely 50 years old. Despite its youth, it is the most characteristic (and the tallest) building in Warsaw, standing at 231 meters, it is visible from every corner of the city.
The Palace of Culture has over 3,000 rooms, but its unquestionable attraction iss the terrace on the 30th floor, with a breathtaking panoramic view of the capital. On the top of the palace there is a clock, unveiled in 2000, which is the highest clock tower in the world, and also the second largest in Europe: each of the clock’s four dials have a diameter of six meters.
Another interesting feature is that the tower has some unique inhabitants – not everyone knows that that a migratory falcon has a nest there, and for a number of years, she has been laying eggs in the Palace tower. At itsinception in 1955, the Palace was the largest such structure in Europe.
Adjacent to the Palace of Culture is Defilad Square, where PRL leaders gave their propaganda speeches. Today, plans are in the works to develop this space.

End of semestr
Soon semestr in schools in Warsaw ends. I dream about winters holidays. Yet only few days and will can wake up late. I will wake up maybe at 8 o'clock, maybe little later. After sunrise. I will can read, read. All days read my favourite books. Now I finished very good story "Lawendowy pył" by Danuta Marcinkowska end her daughter end granddaughter.
Today weather in Warsaw is horrible. Very windy. I hate this kind of weather. Somtimes I feel anxious.

New apartments
Last Saturday I visited new apartment building, built near my house. In the photo higher there is a place, where two years ago was a small pub. Today is a new blocks of flats.
This building was built very quickly: one and half of year. Last holiday I had to hear a noise from a building site.
And last Saturday I could see this apartments. They are very nice, large, much the lights, but there is one problem: they are vey expensive. 10,5 thousands PLN for one square metre for the cheapest flat. Not for me. Unfortunately.
