Thank you for your job and the video about Gdansk! I am delighted! This is a very beautiful city, it looks fabulous, it is a pearl! Greetings from Bulgaria!
What a wonderful city to visit! Despite the less than perfect weather, you could still appreciate the beauty of Gdansk. Btw, great drone shots Matt! Really enjoyed your video. Thanks! 👋😎
Thanks for all your great travel videos! We're off to Gdansk tomorrow for 5 days and you've given us some great tips and ideas to include on our trip 😎
Is there another video to come? We acually fell in love with Gdańsk. For us definetly one of the most beatifull cities in Europe. You should visit the WWII museum even if you don't like museums, it is actually unique. Hugs from Germany.
Great vlog molly and Matt some great views from the Ferris wheel and from the drone, food looked great “Patatoe Dishes “ thanks for sharing and catch up with you in the next one.
Hello from Toronto, Oh my GOD !!!!!, what a lovely video, and lovely city Gdansk. We really enjoy watching, this Capital of Amber, in Europe. Thank you, Cheers !!!!!!!!
My parent’s city! My mom was born in Sopot and grew up in Gdańsk while my dad was born in Gdansk. My oldest brother was born in Gdynia before they came to Canada and my middle brother and I were born in Canada.
In my life I have seen hundreds of beautiful cities in the world, but Gdansk will always be the most beautiful for me. Everything is here and Tricity (Gdansk - Sopot - Gdynia) enriches life even more. It is a real "WINDOW ON THE SEA". Here live "Wolves of the Sea" ("Wilki Morskie"), tough and real people of the sea.
Our return trip to Poland will include Gdansk. Sounds like the beauty of the city is in it's architecture. A beautiful video showing off Gdansk city streets and stunning ships in a lovely harbor with a sea side seat drinking your favorite polish beer. Life is Good .Guys. Sending you lots of love💖💖 Jim and Harriet. Richmond, Va.
Molly the bells on the Towm hall are special 500 years complex mechanism called Carillons, playing melodies. In Gdańsk there is a summer festival of Carillon music . UK Portsmouth cathedral has a Carillon.
Hiya Molly and Matt, I can not do those wheels. Like a cable car. Dangling. ☺Beautiful city. Just a random horse. Playing a keyboard. 🤣😁Enjoyable video as always. Thank you for sharing. Have a great week.
Wow thank you for your always beautiful adventures nice country with out you we can’t see that beautiful country thank you for your hard work adventures take care guy’s and always bless you 👏👏👏🥰🥰🥰👌👌👌
Gdańsk, Toruń, Riga, Kopenhagen, Antwerp, Amsterdam, Hamburg - all of these cities used to belong to the medieval trading company called 'Hansa'. For sure you'll find a lot similarities of these cities. Houses are thin because taxes had been counted based on width of a building's front - the wider front the more notable your house and shop was, you could sell more goods.
Piekne miasto. Poznan, Wroclaw, Warszawa, Gdansk, Krakow, Olsztyn, Torun sa tez swietne. No i oczywiscie jest sporo mniejszych miast jak Sandomierz ktore uwielbiam. Pozdrawiam!
Ok so fun fact, the reason most old towns are squares (like in Warsaw, Krakow, Poznan etc.) is that the cities were "settled with German law" - basically land owners used Magdeburg rights which were a set of medieval laws which regulated how cities worked. All the cities that were granted these laws were built very similarly to Magdeburg (so a square with the city hall in the middle). Gdańsk on the other hand was settled with Lubeck law, which was the other popular medieval municipal law - Lubeck has a one long street as it's old town and so do the other cities based on it. That's kind of an easy way to know which city was settled with which law.
This is my favourite city in Poland as well. Interesting fact so that crane In Gdansk in 3:22 was copied in to video game The Witcher 3 Wild Hunt and location in the game is Novigrad Docs also few building from Gdansk was implemented in Novigrad as this game was produced in Poland by polish company.
I am honoured as I am Polish Canadian. But my mom was born in Sopot and grew up in Gdansk and my dad was born in Gdasnk and my oldest brother in Gdynia. I have to agree with you it is beautiful in Gdansk but also I think Krakow is stunning in Poland and would like to visit. The history and beauty of Krakow is unmatched and would like to visit during Christmas. Old town Warsaw and the parks there are stunning too.
You motivated me to go to the oldtown today, so there is a chance to meet you :D But honestly, thank you for reminding me how beautiful my city is. I should go outside more :D
I think 4: 1-2 for Gdansk itself (Main and Old Towns, Solidarity Centre Museum), one for Malbork Castle (it’s mind blowing) and one for short ride with the metropolitan train to see Gdynia (modernist “ideal” city”) and Sopot (restore town with the largest wooden pier in Europe).
Great video of my Alma Mater city of Gdansk ! Gdansk definitely flourished over last 20 years, many buildings were renovated and some new development makes it look way more flattering. Interesting fact, that not many ppl are aware of is that the part of Gdansk with Dlugi Targ is called Glowne Miasto ( Main City/Town) while actual Old Town is historically located east of it, closer to the main train station.
Szczecin ist definitly worth a visit, but "Polish Paris" really sounds exaggerated - plus the roundabout and boulevard mentioned was not even built under Polish rule.
We love that city and we were going to go this weekend, but the covid retrictions have put us off. If you get a chance hop on the train to Sopot 20 minutes away. Its unreal
I hope you guys saw in the photos what Gdańsk looked like right after the war. This makes the city's present landscape even more impressive. *Fun fact:* In the Przymorze district, there is the longest residential building in Poland (and the second longest in Europe) - 850 meters long, with approximately 3,500 inhabitants. Popularly known as "Falowiec" - it's actually the name of the type of building. Built in the Soviet era. Not the prettiest one (quite the opposite), but it's definitely interesting. PS You're such a lovely couple! I hope you will come back to Poland and Gdańsk soon!
Fun fact. Before ww2 Gdańsk was called Danzig, under the Versailles treaty it was a free independent city state, like today Singapore. It wasn’t part of Germany. When Hitler invaded France the code name all the German troops were waiting for to start the invasion of France was “Danzig”
Question for you folks - do you know why the old town buildings are so thin and tall? I haven't seen any answer on your previous videos, so if I'm repeating something, I do apologize in advance. It's because the ground tax. The wider house you wanted to build, the bigger tax you had to pay. That's way they are so crammed and tall.
The historic city center (which is here wrongly called old town, it´s in fact the Main City) was fully reconstructed after the WW2. This part of the town was destroyed by more than 90% and was reconstructed using old paintings and photos. But it was not rebuild in the way it was just before 1945 but in the shape of Gdansk from the 16th century when the city was under the rule of Polish kings. The reconstruction was restricted to the facades of the townshouses, the inner part of the buildings were just communal flats with the standards from the fifties. Only few historical buildings like townshall or churches were fully reconstructed. The effect is still amazing, but due the war it is only a facade of what it used to be. But Gdansk is more than Main City. You shoud visit other parts like Wrzeszcz or the beaches in Brzezno or Jelitkowo.
Isn't it that Rechtstadt/Main City is basically the Neustadt/New City of Danzig - the extention of the Old Town after the Middle Ages to the south? the last time I went to Gdansk I stay in an guest appartment next to St Marys Church, which extended over two historic-style facades. So the narrow fassades and gables down refelect the flars behind it. Plus the layout of the Main City after the war has another advantage: you have larg green courtyards now. I would image that it was much denser, houses were deeper before the war with more commercial use.
When I hear Gdansk tears flow onto my eyes I turn onto the lord to grant me the delayed visa appointment date from the Polish Embassy in Nairobi KENYA Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord Lord
I think that Gdańsk is cooler than Kraków, but the gastronomy in Gdańsk is probably worse than in Kraków - it is from my experience. From Gdańsk it is close to Sopot and Gdynia and to the Hel peninsula. It's a pity you didn't visit this place in summer - in summer this region is really cool. And how do you like Poland and Polish food in general? Hope you can make a summary.
Guys you came to Poland during the coldest months of the year -January and February, so don't be surprised that the weather is crap. Next time just come between April and September and then you will see completely different Poland
You absolutely need to see the Gdańsk Oliwa cathedral from inside, and to *see*, and listen the organ presentation! (you can find an English speaking guide there, if you wish).
Thank you for your job and the video about Gdansk! I am delighted! This is a very beautiful city, it looks fabulous, it is a pearl! Greetings from Bulgaria!

The whole Trójmiasto, Gdańsk, Gdynia and Sopot are great!
Not Gdynia, cos it’s the ugliest city in Poland !

Absolutely BEAUTIFUL! Thanks for watching!

Thank you Gustavo ❤️
Awesome ! How many days would you recommend to stay in Gdansk ?
I think 4: 1-2 for Gdansk itself (Main and Old Towns, Solidarity Centre Museum), one for Malbork Castle (it’s mind blowing) and one for short ride with the metropolitan train to see Gdynia (modernist “ideal” city”) and Sopot (restore town with the largest wooden pier in Europe).
If you visit during holidays you have nice beaches may - September is more than 20 °C

So glad You got to Gdansk x
You have to try polish bottle beer called specjal u can find it in any shop in gdansk.this beer is straight from this town
Thanks for the recommendation!
I hope you are planning a visit to Warsaw. It is very different but worth a visit. Good luck !
Stay tuned!
Awesome , amazing and stunning ❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉
Thanks a lot 😊
oh Hi there you Beautiful people again! 🙂🙂
Love your videos guys , always checking what is worth to see and taste in my own country before I travel there;)
Thank you so much!
The architecture of Gdansk is linked to the Hanseatic league. Its similar to that of Antwerp, Bergen, Netherlands etc..
You should go to the Polish Paris, Szczecin. After Gdansk. Alot og Big roundabout and wide boulevards.
Szczecin ist definitly worth a visit, but "Polish Paris" really sounds exaggerated - plus the roundabout and boulevard mentioned was not even built under Polish rule.
3:16 I love this snap😍
We love that city and we were going to go this weekend, but the covid retrictions have put us off. If you get a chance hop on the train to Sopot 20 minutes away. Its unreal
Stay tuned, thanks for watching Jeff!

Pyra Bar come's from Poznań. In Greatpoland dialect mean potato. Greater Poland people are called Pyra also.

Indeed a very beautiful old German town called Danzig, today in Poland
Danzig is the incorrect name, correct pronunciation is Gdansk.
Destroyed by german nazis and rebuilt by Poland
I recommend visiting westerplatte
We wanted to but wanted to go by boat! All closed at the moment but on weekends!
Love both your shades! Are they English?
They’re from a market in the UK

Yeah definitely. Depending on where you go 🤣
