First Day in Toruń

So, here I am in Toruń again. My relatives live in one of the historic buildings in the Rynek so I am right where everyone likes to see. Friday afternoon we did some shopping to get some suppplies. Here are a few scenes around old town in Toruń.

One of the meat stores we stopped at was in a historic building and it had amazing tile work inside. I was told that because this is a historic building, they are not allowed to change the interior wall with the tile work. It is beautiful & it would be a sin if it was removed.

After returning "home" & having something to eat, we took a walk around Toruń at night. There was one particular new building I was interested in seeing which was architecturally interesting for me & was completed laast year about the same time when I was in Poland then. The Centrum Kulturalno-Kongresowe Jordanki is an Arts & Cultural Center & when I stopped by they were rehearsing for a performance the next day. BEAUTIFUL architecture.

From the Cultural Center we walked to the fountain to listen to the music and watch the lights of the dancing fountain. I always enjoy the lights at night in Toruń,
