    Born on March 1st, 1818 in Żelazowa Wola, Fryderyk Chopin is Poland‘s greatest composer and Warsaw‘s favourite son. He has lent his name to everything from vodka to airports. An early age musical prodigy, his life as a musician was full of success. As that of many other artists, however, it was marked by unrequited love, exile, illness, bankruptcy and solitude. He died at age 39 in Paris. His compositions live on and have become a source of Polish national pride. Taking up four floors the museum features an interactive style and shares the life of Chopin from start to finish leaving absolutely no detail out. Among the 5,000 exhibits are a lock of hair, his school exercise books, a sweet box, a gold watch presented to the ten year old Frederic by an admiring Italian singer and the passport he used to enter England. So comprehensive is the collection it even features the last letter he wrote to his family and dried flowers from his deathbed. Also, of course, are several paintings and sculptures (including his death mask), a recreation of his Paris drawing room, and even an intriguing section on the women who made the man. One area that is particularly popular is the Composer's Hall, an area where you can listen to all of Chopin's music. Mr Chopin, welcome to the 21st century.

    It is the most worthy tallest building in Warsaw, with a total height of 234 meters. It was built by the former Soviet Union and presented to Warsaw. It has a strong former Soviet architectural style and is a landmark building in Warsaw. It is called "Stalin's syringe" or "Russian wedding cake". However, such a beautiful building is completely inconsistent with the style of the surrounding new town and the old town in the distance. The complicated historical process has made the Poles have a complex feeling of love and hate for this building. It is said that there is a lot of space inside and various exhibitions are often held. This reminds me of the "Sino-Soviet Friendship Building" in Shanghai. Haha, it is indeed a building of the same style.
