You're standing on Castle Square in Warsaw, plac Zamkowy in Polish. Have a look around. The square is roughly triangular, and historic townhouses line its edges. On the east side is the Royal Castle, for centuries the home of Polish kings. And in the south-west corner a tall column rises up, with a king standing on top.
