Warsaw, Poland

Warsaw is indeed a very beautiful and clean city. I have not had any expected at the beginning of how it would look like but least when you did not expected, it just caught us by surprised. We spent the long weekend there in Warsaw.

It's a plain wooden cross almost austere in its simplicity. It quickly became a spot for mourners to light candles, place flowers and pray.But more recently, it has turned into a battleground that exposes the deep cultural and political rifts within Polish society. Since then, a group of deeply religious, strongly conservative demonstrators has been holding a round-the-clock candle-lit vigil in front of the Presidential Palace.  They call themselves "defenders of the cross."
