Today Piotrkowska Street is the axis of Łódź. Here, in its proximity, almost all of the most important administrative offices, banks, shops, restaurants and pubs are situated. Most events (- like The Light Move Festival we came for -), outdoor parties, marches and official celebrations, organized by the city of Łódź, are taking place – here:
The Piotrkowska Street is also known as the ”Łódź Walk of Fame”.
Between Tuwima Street and Nawrot Street there is the Monument of Łódź Citizens of Millennium Change, which is a nominal surface covering the part of Piotrkowska Street. This is probably the only monument of this kind in the world, consisting of 13.454 nominal cobblestones.
Some of the very special things I noticed were:
This is the popular Teddy Floppy-ear, a Polish character from the stop motion-animated TV series of the same name.Whenever we passed by (and that was often…) he had admirers around…
But, it is getting late, so I say good night for now…See you in the alleyways of colour and art – maybe tomorrow?
[…] and walking down the Piotrkowska street in Lódź, the clouds soared right above me…just as close as they feel now in Skane, Sweden. […]
You have truly captured the atmosphere of that street. Fantastic images. Thanks for finding out about the names on the street. I will use Google now.
I was lucky to find them!
I know it’s not easy to find information. A walk on monument it’s called
Vackra bilder på staden. De små statyerna är ljuvliga.
Mmm, och överallt fanns de – i olika varianter.
It’s a wonderful street, isn’t it? Full of all kinds of everything. 🙂 🙂 Love the kids with the bear statue.
Wonderful it is! So full of positive surprises!
I didn’t know about many findings you write about. I definately must go to Łódź and check it by myself. In fact, I have never visited this town before …
The usual story, isn’t it? Many towns I should have visited in Sweden…
Qui donc derrière ces portes closes? Quelles histoires?
😊
Är du ute och reser hela tiden du?😄😀
Haha…livet som retired😉
…men en anledning var att jag fyllde jämnt😊
Det ljuva livet!👌 Grattis i efterskott får jag säga antar jag?😀
Man tackar! Jag slutade jobba tidigare…för att jag kunde. Skönt. Rycker in då och då. Och det är ju bättre att fylla än alternativet…😉
Låter helt perfekt underbart! När det blir dags för mig att gå i pension har nog åldern höjts till 78 år, så femtio år kvar nu bara!😁
Phuuu….men om du gifter dig rikt, vinner en massa pengar eller ärver en förmögenhet…eller blir Nobelpristagare i litteratur! Då fixar du ett gott liv – snabbare ;-D
Jag siktar nog på att göra lite av allt för att gardera mig 😁
😂
I am envious of these lovely, spacious pedestrian streets.
Spännande och intressanta bilder från en stad som säkerligen är värt ett besök. Tycker mycket om ditt collage med dina lite speciella iakttagelser, snyggt presenterat och roligt att få ta del av.
Tack för så positiva ord, Anita! Jag kan nog tänka mig att återvända.
What a beautiful place!
Thank you – yes, I found it beautiful.
Looks like a lovely place.
