Visit to the Łazienki Royal Park and the Warsaw Library


So Mary's sister stayed in Warsaw last weekend and after going to the Old Town and the University of Warsaw we had the chance to visit the Warsaw University Library and the Łazienki Royal Park.

The library is huge! And outside you can see some writings from different authors in several languages. We didn't have the chance to go inside the library but went to park right next to this building. Mary called this park "Alice in Wonderland":



















Well Warsaw has many parks, that's nice if you like to walk, jog or at least take a nap there. The only problem so far It's that is getting colder and I will have to get used to jog in this weather :S


After the trip to the library we went to the Royal Park, It's the biggest park in the city and this day the park was full of people, you can feel that It's summer because every person in this city is outside doing something, riding a bicycle, walking, shopping, visit the Old Town, malls, parks or having a beer in one of the millions of pubs here ;)





The only problem when you have three Venezuelan persons and nobody from Poland while you are walking across the city is that we don't know anything about the places!! Of course we could have made some research and maybe asked to somebody there, but we were also in a hurry because Mariana was leaving at 18.00 that day.

And to close this entry, here we have a video from a previous visit to this park, there was a national holiday and was the first time in Poland that they have a celebration and a parade because of the Army Day in more than forty years.
