    To refresh a bit we stopped at university cafeteria to buy some snack.

    Later we walked to Lumina and Dendrological Park. Because of the darkness we could enjoy both the old trees and lighted objects such as fairy-tale characters, animals and scary figures. The connection of wild nature and modern technology made the atmosphere magical.

In fact, it was an interactive show, where we could learn something about the history of Poznan, about the local dialect and most importantly how to bake the local speciality St. Martin’s Croissants. During this show, from the windows, we could see one of the tourist attractions of Poznań. The mechanical goats' butting display takes place every day at 12:00 on the tower of the Poznań City Hall.
