Is it Poland's tallest lighthouse in Świnoujście?
OP pawian 224 | 24,477
28 Apr 2019 #2,372
Sorry, no, mine is not even half as tall as the one in Świnoujście. But it is unfair, I was going to show the lighthouse in Swinoujście soon, why are you so fast? :):):)

Hints: mine was also built by Germans. It isn`t a lighthouse.

It's not? Looks a lot like a lighthouse! Oh well, back to the drawing board I guess. Won't be so fast this time ;)

No, of course, be so fast,

Lookout tower wielka sowa ..... next please this is fun.

Yes! The observation/view tower on Great Owl peak in Owl Mountains in Lower Silesia.

Ok, as you seem a specialist on the region, let`s stay there for a while to have more fun, indeed. But to make it more difficult, a slightly limited view: what and where is this brick building on the left?

Yes, Chemikiem , Ząbkowice and its Tower is really Leaning, no tricks with the camera.

Dolnośląsk, you say you are not an expert on Lower Silesia so why such a nick?

Still in the region, easy:

Where exactly is this rock?

Yes, Szczeliniec Wielki. Nice name - Great Gap. Or more exactly: Great Gappler. :)
Well, in this case, half a point to SB and Dolno.

A town hall - where? ( renovated with EU funds)

It is 70 km south of Kraków and 40 kms away from Zakopane situated in the Beskids.It is the most famous Polish spa for children.

I only posted it as an experiment! I wouldn't seriously expect anyone to know where it is.

Oops, I think I've posted this in the wrong thread somehow...

That`s nice you are so nice for members as to reveal so many facts. But if you carry on like that, your riddles might be too easy. :):)

Or not? Is that what is needed here to counterbalance my extremely difficult ones? :)

OK, I have an idea, I will only take a guess at your photos after nobody is able to guess correctly within one day. That will be the fairest solution.

Nah. I spent 3 bloody summers in that awful place Pawian with my infant daughter.
My message to others: Avoid!

more members to participate

I will dig out some photos when I have fed my guest. She is a pain in the arse, is very vocal and the black ones are the worst. I can't wait for her owner to come back and get her.

I spent there about two years from all combined summers and weekends as an infant and a young boy. That was the best time of my life and whenever I visited Rabka with my kids, I showed them places where I had fallen into the river, played cowboys and Indians with a self made bow, learnt how to climb trees, picked and devoured cherries by kilos and then thrown up etc etc.

Doug, don`t take such experiences and then wonderful memories away from your kids. :)

It's in Nowa Ruda :)

28 Apr 2019 #2,392
Yes, exactly, the Market Square there had been renovated before our arrival, looked very pretty, indeed, what I couldn`t say about the rest of the town which seemed very neglected. But I hope they have made some progress with it till today.

What and where is it? A hint - certainly not what you are thinking of - that would be too easy. :):)

IF, and I could be wrong.....it is easy Pawian. Well - if you've been there. Great restaurant too!
Pieskawa Skala. (sorry, no Polish fonts..)

propaganda.

Where do you live again Ironside? How much have you contributed? Now be off with you!

I spent there about two years from all combined summers and weekends as an infant and a young boy.

(Rabka)...I spent a week or two there every summer when my daughter was in her pram until she was four - my liver is still recovering from the long evenings sat on the verandah:) I too had fun in the river after a few sherberts:)

Summers could be bloody cold there too I remember!

Sorry, it is not Pieskowa Skała, although it also boasts of a similar arcade courtyard.

Wow! I wonder where it is then. Somewhere out east....?
