Gdańsk has a unique feel that sets it apart from the other cities in Poland.
Centuries of maritime ebb and flow as a port city; streets of
distinctively un-Polish architecture influenced by a united nations of
wealthy merchants who shaped the city’s past; the to-ing and fro-ing of
Danzig/Gdańsk between Teutonic Prussia and Slavic Poland; and the
destruction of WWII have all bequeathed this grand old dame a special
atmosphere that millions of tourists now come to enjoy the narrow, cobbled streets of the Main Town, to gaze in wonder at
monster red-brick churches, to scatter along its historical
thoroughfares lined with grand, elegantly slender buildings and to
wander in and out of characterful cafes, amber shops and intriguing
museums.
