The Grand Palace in Bangkok is a dazzling spectacle of opulence and history, a must-see for any traveller venturing to Thailand’s capital. This architectural marvel, originally constructed in 1782, was the official residence of the Thai monarch and is a stunning testament to traditional Thai craftsmanship. As you explore its ornate temples, gilded spires, and intricately decorated halls, you'll be mesmerised by the Emerald Buddha Temple, home to Thailand’s most revered religious artefact. Get in early to bypass the bustle and crowds, and remember to show respect by wearing long pants – no shorts allowed.

Have you ever seen an iceberg in the city center? If not, you must see the new premises of Szczecin Philharmonic which majestically emerges from urban buildings and pervasive greenery. Its metal and glass facade supplemented with light illuminations catch the eye of each person who comes nearby. The building was designed by catalonian architects from Barozzi Veiga from Barcelona and immediately has become the icon of our city. Modern design combined with inspiration taken from historic building of Konzerthaus creates a coherent whole of past, present and future of Szczecin. It has received numerous awards, including the Mies van der Rohe Award in 2015, the Award of the President of the Republic of Poland for the Best Architectural Structure in Poland in the years 2013-2014 in the “LIFE IN ARCHITECTURE” contest, and the award of the “bryla. pl” website dealing with architecture.
