Geocache Description:

the cache is placed on the end of Prozna Street in the dawntown of Warsaw. you are going to Grzybowski Square. just before leaving Prozna Street think of the song 'raindrops are falling on my head...'

"When I say ‘Warsaw’, I see the older Jewish Warsaw in my heart. I see Jewish streets, booths, synagogues and houses of prayer, markets and yards full of Jewish inhabitants. Because it is to the contrary to what I know, I cannot imagine ‘judenrein’(‘free of Jews’) Warsaw, nor Jewish streets as piles of rubble…” Isaac Singer
(visit link)

Prózna Street is a place of Jewish and Polish history. Ill try to give u few most important info about this magic place, filled with laugh of happy families, klezmer music and place filled with blood and tears. Being in Warsaw you should find a while to go alond this street, look at the old buildings, which wear the visible marks of WW2.
Every year, around September/October there is a huge festival dedicated to Isaac Singer. It is called Singer's Warsaw Festival.

You may become a part of alive, dancing, singing, smiling and nosiy old Warsaw. there are alwyas great opportunities to learn about Jewish awsome culture, history, cuisine [nam nam] and also take lessons of Jewish dance and klezmer music, which i must admit i love.
Near the place where cache is waiting for you, behind the square is a building of Shalom Foudation, Jewish Theatre [Fiddler on the Roof is amazing! and if u go there once to watch it u come back every year!] and beautiful worth to see Synagogue.

These days you can also watch the pictures on the walls [outside] buildings on Prozna Street showing people and their life from XIX century.

also, close to Synagogue is one of the biggest catholic cathedrals with sculpture of John Paul II in front.

have a magic time, going back into the sheets of the story about Old Old Warsaw...

ATTENTION!!!

FOR A TRY I have placed a micro log with a note inside saying: Prozna Street / log your visit online / Lenveig

that means that you do not need to write your visit in the cache as it is micro cache and there is no place for logbook. Write to me by using geocaching about your feelings, opinion about it. Such caches are common in Norway and are much longer clean and in use.

polish vershion:

UWAGA !!!!!!!!!

NA probe umiescilam w mikrokeszu fiolke z napisem Prozna street/ zaloguj swoja wizyte online (przez internet) / Lenveig. To oznacza ze nie wpisujemy sie na karteczce ktora jest umieszczona w srodku. Nie ma tam miejsca na typowy logbook. Zobaczymy jak sie to sprawdzi, w razie czego w pazdzierniku zmienie na cos wiekszego. Jesli macie uwagi piszcie prosze na mojego maila albo za pomoca geocaching (send message). Fiolka z informacja o keszu pozostanie dluzej sucha i uzyteczna dla nas wszystkich :)
