pawian, i really like this thread.
I believe the first one gives it away.




I thought it was Krakow market but on closer inspection it is not.

Are we still in Poland?

But I am also waiting for the name of the structure.

Leaning tower of Pisa? Italy?
Or is the photo taken at an angle?

Where exactly??? :):)

The acropolis? Greece?

Taken on Independence Day.

Where are they?

top of Kosciuszko hill in Krakow?

And what are they?

Unhappy, by the looks of them.

They represent all the women who fought bravely during independence?

And they?

The lads from the film "Potop", the noble men that fought against the Sweds?

Where is it?

The Wawel castle? one of the king's tombs?

What is the case on the tree?

A shrine to Christianity, where some one had an epiphany or got lost and found his way because of a guardian angel? So probably a statue of Mother Mary? with prayers?

What is this building in Krakow?

Looks like a "modern" church?

What`s this?

It's a bit of carpet left in the mud to prevent cars from sinking when it is raining?

What is this orange fence for?

t's a bit of carpet left in the mud to prevent cars from sinking when it is raining?

yes, a carpet which remained after a crash.

What is this orange fence for?

Let me guess this one. I see those fences twice a week near Krakow. They prevent snow being blown onto the road by strong winds.

Yes. We are getting good at this ha ha ha, well at least better.

Looks like a "modern" church? Yes. Unfortunately.

I am going to do another film but this time I will focus more on the buildings while driving through Poland.
The lovely wooden houses and the not so nice communist blocks, the beautiful old wooden and stone churches and the mass concrete wierd shaped "modern" quite ugly ones.

Just to give a bit of a balance to the film. Again not very exciting but I think it might be at least slightly interesting for people who have never been to Poland.

Hmm, I might stick in some dancing girls just to liven things up a bit :)

Portugal?

I was recently in a church like this in Portugal.
The walls and ceiling were covered in the skulls and bones of the monks.
The floor was grave stones.

You guessed the time, yes, it`s at Christmas, but you got the festivity wrong. It`s not Szopka, there is action in it! Look at the shape in the middle....
