Landing in Warsaw at Frédéric Chopin International Airport should provide a clue to the level of reverence the Poles have for this man. Just outside of Warsaw in Żelazowa Wola his birthplace is celebrated. Warsaw hosts a museum in his name. Each Sunday in the park there is a piano recital. All of these we attended.

Our last Sunday in Warsaw was spent, in part, in Royal Łazienki Park.
