I (we, actually) have been to Warsaw and Poznań, which are big tourist hubs with old city centers, but I have long maintained – and made believers of some visitors to Szczecin – that Szczecin is prettier than either Warsaw or Poznań. The old historic central area (Stare Miasto) was not rebuilt in Szczecin as elsewhere, but Szczecin has a lot of the old German architecture, which is beautiful and scattered throughout the city. Here we will have three days of pictures of buildings that were all taken as I stood in one place. These buildings look out onto a small park and tram stop.
