RE: Warsaw – the historic part

I can only imagine. I know that up to 90% of the city was destroyed during the WWII, similarly to my own Czech hometown of Opava (80%). Considering this, the current appearance of Warsaw is truly admirable.

Paradoxically, this destruction made it possible for a relatively modern city to emerge. I wouldn’t see this as a thank-you to the occupying forces, but, for example, Łódź—which survived the war—has a huge problem with its over-100-year-old tenement buildings.
