Not far away from the Old Town Square, I walked over to a wide-open space that reminds me of Beijing Tiananmen Square. Actually its the Tomb of the unknown soldier. It was Sunday afternoon, saw people skateboarding in the wide open square. Not a bad day Sunny but with scattering cloud in the sky makes you feel comfortable.

Changing of Guards

Saw Soldiers guarding the Tomb of the unknown soldier. In a short while time for changing the guard, it was a good photo opportunity for me and to observe the activities in an around the Marconi Fountain and Saxon Garden. I remember seeing this place was visited by President Obama a few years back so I also felt somehow honored to be able to visit the same place and pay a tribute to the unknown soldiers in my own way.

Changing the guards

Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, dedicated to the unknown soldiers who have given their lives for Poland. The tomb has a change of guards every hour. Due to time constraint did not have much luck to go for a long walk in the adjacent park called Saxon garden but I bet it would have been a great experience. Overall I am proud and happy at least to be at the Tomb.
