Warsaw is a fascinating and beautiful city, with many stories to tell. It is also filled with many spots that look like they were taken right out of a fairytale. Even this construction site I came across the evening I arrived looked like it was from a storybook page.
The sun sets on the fairytale scene, still under construction.
Gilded building blocks, ready to complete the enchanted scene.
Fairytale roads require precision construction.
Somehow even the graffiti-covered dumpster appeared slightly magical in the golden light.
Fairytale onlookers over the construction zone.
The next day, I walked the same way, and the scene looked only slightly less storybook-like by day.
Fairytale construction work by day. (You didn’t really think it was elves, did you?)
There were other places around the city, as well, where it was clear that a lot of maintenance goes on behind the scenes in a fairytale. Someone has to take care of the magical creatures, after all.
