Wilanow Palace in Warsaw is apparently nicknamed the Polish Versailles. I’ve not been to the true Versailles in France, so I have no opinion in that regard. However I do know I found this place, in some instances, very different from others of this type. The sculptures on the rooftop reminded me a bit of Saint Peter’s Basilica in the Vatican. The almost floor to ceiling white statues inside were towering, for shorty, me 🙂 The plafond with a baby foot hanging down from it, like an extension of the painting on it. The African servant and a parrot fresco detail. The neo-Gothic stone tomb outside in the park. They all just charmed me 🙂 I did not go into the park and gardens. There might have been gold to find there too.
Wilanow Place is outside the city centre. About 10 km. Public transportation works.

Looks like beautiful place!
It struck a cord with me, those “unusual” features
