We had several times the chance to admire the illumination of various parts of the Royal Route in Warsaw. In 2014 we have been to Wilanów. Since five years have passed, I think it is time to go there again.
As always, the first thing we can spot are the decorations on the city lanterns.
They look like large snowflakes.
As we approach the royal palace of Wilanów, you can immediately spot a tunnel guiding us in the right direction.
A tunnel of light of course.
The main gate features the colours of the Polish flag.
Inside, it is really crowded despite the snow.
Why don't we sneak out to the gardens.
Those torches seem to be really burning.
All the pieces of small architecture have been used as a pretext to put more light into the garden. Like this small fountain.
In the back of the palace you will find Janina, the coat of arms of king Jan Sobieski, the founder of Wilanów.
On the main terrace you will find a field of apple trees.
Very enchanting apple trees.
Below the terace, you will find even more lights, with yet another enchanted fountain.
The garden around it is calm and partly dark ...
... until it is not.
But the most amazing thing about it is that it dances in between.
Even the smallest fountains seem to be alive, despite negative temperature.
I find it really smart.
Before you run for a cup of hot chocolate to warm you up, I propose that we take just a few steps and go to the other side of the street, next to the District Council Hall. First, we need to pass through a giant gingerbread. Both scary and mouth-watering, isn't it?
Then we can gallop together with a Horse of Light.
And remember all those that we love.
Feels like walking in a Winter Wonderland!
