The train tracks of Birkenau

Posted byDonnchaPosted inPhotosTags:, , , , , , ,

The train tracks of Birkenau concentration camp in Poland lead off to the front gate. The camp is only a 5 minute bus journey from Auschwitz, along a road bordered by a train track. It’s surreal passing by homes, businesses and people walking about living their lives next to these places.

Tourists gather around the building, listening to their tour guides.
