The bobble

The Congress Hall is a 2,880 seat theatre at the Palace of Culture and Science in Warsaw. The whole building has a popular name CLOUN. In Polish, this is just an exchange of one letter PAŁAC = PAJAC. The plan of "wedding cake" is a bit like a human profile. A head of this clown is the congress hall. All the most important ceremonies took place inside her. It was also here that the Rolling Stones concert took place - the first group from behind the Iron Curtain.
