GREAT VIEW

The Palace of Culture and Science is the architectural gem of Poland. The top floor has a wonderful terrace from where you can admire Warsaw, if you want to get a more detailed view of the city there are binoculars along the railing of the terrace. I  recommend if you have a jacket to wear it, because when I was there I could not stay outside for too much wind. In the Palace there are also cinemas, theatres and conference rooms. I was impressed by the size of one of the theaters.It's really worth a visit if you are in town.
