Gdansk is very old city. 755 is a long history. We have stayed in the part of the city which is old. There is a lot of modern apartments and detached houses here.
Most buildings in the city are renovated...
This house is sample of German architecture..
Buildings hee are made from red brick which is very popular for Germany, too..
The city offers nice parks for their residents and tourists..
The building is called The Old Mill - now is a supermarket.. and nice restaurant offers fantastic fish.
A charming river in the city..
Typical vehicle for tourists
Pizza and ice cream time..
The globe - interesting monument in front of the shop...
Tomorrow about St Catherine Church - well known place here,,.
Excellent report on Gdansk, Gosia.
ReplyDeleteIsn't it funny that the new World of the Americas and Australia
were not even discovered when Gdansk was founded.
Strange how some people can't get their heads around that fact.
I wonder if like in Norway that the homes of the ancient tribes of
the Gdansk region as they were then have been preserved in museums?
The small tourist bus for sight seeing is a good idea - the smaller
the tour bus and the more you hear the commentary from the guide.
I've been on some European day city trips and been subjected to loud mouth
tourists do nothing but noisely sprout forth on "how much better it is where they
live" - why tour if that is all these "clowns" can do????
