○ The Ławka Initiative

Ławka: Polish word which means ,,bench''.

This page is dedicated to benches, placed in convenient locations, offering a place to rest and enjoy scenic/calming/whatever views. I appreciate well-placed benches a lot for some reason, hence I'm collecting my favourite ones right here.

If I ever get awfully rich, I'm going to start a real Ławka Initiative, funding benches across places in Poland to improve the tourist experience we currently have.

Aga, Norway. I have nothing but respect for Norwegians when it comes to bench placement.

Arboretum Wojsławice, Poland. A local gem near where I live.

Sobótka, Poland. En route towards the Ślęża mountain

Bangkok, Thailand. From the left side there's a small garden, from the right side (not visible in the photo) there's a beautiful Royal Hall building.

Marseille, France. View of the city from the Museum of Civilizations of Europe and the Mediterranean.

Iceland, somewhere around the eastern shore

Poland, Książ Castle. The castle is visible when sitting on the bench, unfortunately I wasn't able to find a good perspective to snap both the bench and the castle.

todo: add some more pictures of benches

Hey you! Yes, the one that's staring at the screen! You have any cool pictures of benches? Send them over to me.
