Berner Oberland, Switzerland

Adam Mickiewitz monument in the Market Square- I know next to nothing about this Polish poet, but there seem to be more statues in Poland honoring him than Chopin.

Chambord

Chambord is probably one of the most impressive castles in the world from the outside. Apart from an interesting double-helix staircase in the center, however, the interior is surprisingly bare.
