Trip description from Professor: "Long walk around the city." And was it. Warsaw was probably my least favorite city on the trip for a couple reasons. First, it was 85-90% destroyed during World War II and thus all the buildings we saw were 'reproductions' of the originals (at least for an architects point of view). Secondly, the 'new' architecture was mostly Soviet buildings that had little to no relationship with the surrounding cityscape and were only built as self-glorified communist propaganda. Third, it rained the entire walk.
