Come on, you were able to provide the place where this unique flag was woven but can`t do it with the place of current exhibition? It is amazing! Admit you are playing games with me/us! :):)

Yes, I know Ciepliński, he gave the idea for making that flag.


Not all Poles do it. Read some Polish blogs or other fora, quite many people admit they don`t know this tradition.

Travel / Poland in photo riddles [3134]

Yes, but you should provide the place where the flag is exhibited today,and not the place of its origin, in case someone wanted to see it. .

A hint: what can you read on the flag? Honour, Motherland, RP.

Probably your riddle is too easy, people expect sth more challenging. :):)

On backto`s behalf: sorry, no. There is a mine in Sandomierz but it is still functioning.

A hint - the residence of twin brothers isn`t far from Sandomierz.

One more conflict and then we will introduce nicer atmosphere for a change.

Abortion issue divides Poles as well. The first picture was taken at a sharp angle so it distorts the drastic view a little but these and similar bilboards fully expose all the details when put in public places. Polish court ruled once that displaying explicit effects of abortion is legal.

Well, it depends...


In this way you both proved you can read Cyrillic because the surname in Latin alphabet is incomplete. :):):)


No, I thought you are only testing waters and there will be more... This isn`t a private thread, it is everybody`s.


I know but I won`t say.
Or only a hint: in the same place as this guy below:
There is a nice legend about them - they were twin brothers, one was ugly but rich and the other was handsome but poor. One day they met a sheperdess. However, ...... oops. tbc.

No, only half a point for me because I had no idea about the statues of film characters there.

Yes, because we can`t post only difficult riddles, there must be also easy ones. :)

Yes, it seemed surprising to me that both you and Chemikiem posted pics from the same place. :) It is Toruń, a facility hosting Cinema City, hence the signs with the names of famous films.

Yes, indeed, tracks are fenced on both sides.

I see only two plausible explanations:

1. It is the extraterritorial Autobahn to Danzig which Germans have always demanded. But I thought they were turned down by Poles? Those fences mean the factual border. The people waiting at the main entrance are passengers waiting for a check in.

2. Metal scrap collectors are very active in the area. The tracks must be protected against them 24/7.


I simply detected your perfume, it is the same you used years ago.


Reminds me of Nowa Huta, Central Square architecture. And I remember this neon light, I have always liked it but it doesn`t work today. :)

Oops, I was to wait until other people try. Sorry.... :)

On second thoughts, it is in Poznań. You were nearby the station and suddenly needed to take a pee so you went inside.

I checked all newly built or renovated railway stations in Podlasie region and couldn`t find it.

But I know the answer to the bonus question - you were going to the loo! I see WC symbol over the door.

I was right, an old railway station in Chotyłów. But without that year, it was impossible to guess the exact place. :):):) It was Warsaw Brześć route, part of Berlin Moscow route.

Travel / Poland in photo riddles [3134]

:):) We should guess the location by seeing only a small part of that white building on the left which looks like historical, indeed. But it isn`t a church. The sign shows symbols of a crossed-out train and a bus but the words below them are indiscernible. The drab house in the background displays a board with a name which looks like WIKI Sklep but it is too obscure to discern it well enough.

An old railway station?

That`s why I didn`t know, I saw Toruń a few times but only its skyline by the river. :):)

Yes, we also visited the oldest part from WW1 with French POWs` graves. As for the post-war German burial place, it was still not finished when we saw it. Today it might look a bit different.

Why do you ask?


No, I didn`t know it that in 2015 they opened a public library there. I had to google it. Good! ):


In Łuków. But they say that Łuków is in Podlasie and that`s east of the Wisła River, where you don`t go? :):)
