Gdansk, Poland Old Town City tour
Certainly, one of Poland's most beautiful cities Gdansk sits majestically by the Baltic sea and due to its location it played a big role in World War II and suffered extensive damage due to the bombing.
Surprisingly you can barely notice this as the city rebuild it's historic centre very well.
Going to Gdansk by train
We were staying in Sopot a beach town close by so we decided to take the train to Gdansk and it was a short cheap at around €1 and pleasant ride, a great start to the day. The tri-cities ( Gdansk, Sopot and Gdynia) are well connected by train and Bus so you will find it easy to travel between them.
Arriving in Gdansk
The city is quite big, touristic and crowded, and you notice it the moment you leave the train, we were visiting in August and even worst during some sort of festivities, probably the worst time of the year to visit, and we felt it was too much at times, even our usual alternatives like going to smaller less touristic streets didn't work much.
Even so, it's easy to see the appeal of the city, it's without a doubt one of the nicest old towns in Europe with bright colours mixed with old tiled building a feast to the eyes.
It's very easy to navigate and stroll around appreciating the architecture.
Is Gdansk Safe?
Yes, we would say so, at no point did we feel insecure visiting with our 3-year-old son. The only downside is that with the number of people in some parts of the old town just like in any large city you should be aware of pickpocketers. Also during our first hours we kind of lost Lukas and his Grandfather as they wandered off for just a few minutes, with the number of people everywhere it's next to impossible to see anyone so for about 15 minutes we were in a bit of a parents panic attack.
Things to do in Gdansk Poland?
Well visiting the old town is surely the first on the list, it's just breathtaking, so be sure to see Dluga Street, Mariacka Street and Motlawa River Embankment.
If you like history visiting the Museum of the II Worl War
Oliwa Cathedral
St Mary's Church
St. Nicholas Church
The Chrane, Zuraw
Neptune's Fountain
Ambersky, scenic circle (even though it's a bit expensive)
Great armoury an amazing building
Train Station
Going by ferry
When it was time to head back to Sopot we decided to take the ferry and see Gdansk and Sopot by sea and it was also worth it, a different experience and an enjoyable relaxing way to travel, even if the weather didn't collaborate much.

Old Town Gdansk, Poland

Old Town Gdansk was largely destroyed during World War II and rebuilt during the 1950's and '60's. All traces of German influence were removed and replaced with Dutch, Italian and French design to replace the historically accurate Germanic architecture which the city was built upon since the 14th century.

LEGOLAND Visit and review videos:
A strategic and highly influential port for nearly a thousand years, Gdańsk was a stronghold of the Teutonic Knights, and later became an influential city within the Hanseatic League during the Middle Ages.
Largely destroyed in the Second World War, Gdańsk was splendidly rebuilt in the aftermath as one of Europe's most beautiful port cities. Today, Gdańsk has a population of 460,000, and is Poland's largest northern city, drawing numerous visitors into its historic city centre, its outstanding museums, and to its expansive beaches spread along the coast of the Gulf of Gdańsk, making it a popular summer destination for many Poles and foreign visitors alike.
St. Mary's Church (Bazylika Mariacka), ul. Podkramarska 5. One of the largest brick Gothic churches in Europe and supposedly the largest brick church in the world, nearly 20,000 people can fit inside the impressive St. Mary's. Dominant over Gdańsk's skyline since its completion in 1502, St. Mary's has since become one of the iconic landmarks for the city.
Green Gate (Brama Zielona), ul. Długi Targ 24. Tu-F 09:00-16:00, Sa-Su 10:00-17:00. Situated between the Long Market and the Motława River, the Green Gate was built between 1564 to 1568 as the residence of the Polish monarchy in Gdańsk.
Golden Gate (Brama Złota). Built between 1612 to 1614 to replace an earlier 13th century city gate as the brainchild of Abraham van den Blocke, a Flemish architect who lived in Gdańsk in the early 17th century, the gate was constructed in a Dutch Mannerist style.
Żuraw Crane, ul. Szeroka 67/68, . Built between 1442 to 1444, the Żuraw is one of the best intact cranes from medieval Europe. Along with handling cargo arriving on the Motława River, the Żuraw also acted as a city gate and a defensive fortification.
Neptune Fountain (Fontanna Neptuna). Situated in the center of the Long Market, the Neptune statue dates to 1549, while the fountain originates from 1633. Hidden away and miraculously surviving World War II intact, the fountain has since become a popular meeting point in the centre of the Main Town.
Long Lane (Ulica Długa). One of Gdańsk's most popular places for tourists, the Long Lane has been one of the city's most principle streets since the Middle Ages, flanked by the Golden Gate on one end and the Green Gate on the other. All throughout the Long Lane are numerous restaurants, cafes, shops, and impressive Mannerist and Dutch-inspired architecture.

Gdańsk alternate spellings (German: Danzig - Latin: Gedania)
Our visit Gdańsk travel guide documentary covers some of the top attractions including a food guide, top sightseeing tourist attractions and the city by day including visiting castles, churches and museums. We also cover off-the-beaten-path outdoor activities you won't find in a typical Gdańsk tourism brochure, Gdańsk itinerary or Gdańsk, Poland city tour.
10 Things to do in Gdańsk, Poland Travel Guide script:
After visiting the Basilica, we walked over to the main pedestrian street in Gdansk: Dluga, also known as Long Street. Unlike most Polish cities, Gdansk doesn’t have a main square, but this stretch of road acts as the equivalent with lots of vendors and performers along the way.
On the west end of Dluga (Dooga) we came across the Amber Museum, which sounded a little unusual, so we bought tickets and went up. Here we learned the history of Amber trade in the Baltic, and we also discovered that the tower that now houses the museum, was once a prison and torture chamber.
Not done with museums just yet, our next stop was the Historical Museum of the City of Gdansk. I think we spent more time staring at the ornate doorways, ceilings and staircases, than we did at the exhibit itself!
Here, we also saw the Medieval Crane, which was first mentioned in texts in 1367, and was at one point the biggest working crane in the world.
Next, it was all aboard the SS Sołdek, a Polish coal and ore freighter which is now a ship-museum.
And since we’re on the topic of food, we need to show you a milk bar we really enjoyed.
On our last day in Gdansk, we walked over to the European Solidarity Centre, which is about a 15-20 minute walk from the Old Town. The museum tells the story of Solidarity, a Polish trade union and civil resistance movement, founded in 1980 at the Lenin Shipyard. This was the first union not controlled by the communist party, and it’s a fascinating museum to learn a bit more about the history.
And that’s a wrap for our Gdansk travel guide. We hope you guys enjoyed this video and that it gave you a few ideas of things to do in Gdansk on you visit. You know the drill, if you have any other tips or suggestions to share with travellers, feel free to pop those in the comments section below. Happy travels and until next time!

Walking in GDANSK / Poland - Around the Old Town - 4K 60fps (UHD)
The old port city of Gdańsk (German: Danzig) is one of the most beautiful cities in Poland and part of the Tri-City area with Gdynia and Sopot.
We start the walk at the Golden Gate (Złota Brama) and walk down to the Town Hall and Neptun fountain. Then we cross over to the Wyspa Spichrzów - one of the island here and walk back to Old Town along the Philharmonic Hall on Ołowianka.
Some side streets and the churches we have time even for short stroll through the market hall.
Note: the microphone battery went out in end, so it's just the Osmo Pocket sound for the final 5 minutes.
