Il percorso

Begin with the engineering of the layout, then find the model of Warszawa Śródmieście Station. Railways introduce movement around the city, a theme continued at Gdański Bridge. The next stop, Gruba Kaśka, shows another role of the Vistula: supplying Warsaw with water.

Continue through the models of Różycki Bazaar, Plac Zbawiciela and the Royal Castle. Trade, religious architecture and the royal residence provide the next themes. The route ends at Powązki Cemetery and its scene of people visiting graves. Finding the models in this order lets you compare the different roles of places that make up a city.
