- Our first time in Gdansk, Poland!
Gdansk is a port city on the Baltic coast of Poland.
At the centre of its Main Town, reconstructed after WWII, are the beautiful facades of Long Market, now home to shops and restaurants.
Neptune Fountain, a 17th-century symbol of the city, is topped by a bronze statue of the sea god.
Gdansk is also a centre for the world’s amber trade!
Let's explore Gdansk, Poland together.

Been 3 times in the beautiful Gdańsk and always during winter.
Go to the Polish mountains in the summer... 😂
That place is beaaaauutiifull! Been there twice! That place never gets old! And its only 1 hour flight from here in Turku Finland. Planning to go back esp. In Sopot.
Yes it really is beautiful 😊❤️ Thanks so much for watching ❤️
Gdańsk is the one of the most important cities not only for Poland but for whole Europe as well. Once Gdańsk was the biggest and most rich city in Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, the WW II started here, and the Solidarity movement was born. Add to it the world amber capital and birthplace of many famous people like Fahrenheit whose temperature scale is used to this day in English speaking countries.
I ❤ Gdańsk and Tricity!
Yes yes yes! It’s simply beautiful place 🇵🇱
Yessss Gdansk looks GORGEOUS 👀
The best description of a milk bar: "For a little bit of money you can fill up your tummy!"😄👌👍👏
😂😂❤️❤️ the new slogan for all milk bars 🇵🇱
Gdańsk was the richest and largest city in the Kingdom of Poland. The inhabitants of Gdańsk, although they did not speak Polish, were the most loyal subjects of Polish kings.

Naomi have natural ability to learn Polish in my humble opinion, just cause fluent speaking some words with accent. Again i head that sometime in video and was surprised
Thank you! 🇵🇱
DANZICA LA PERLA DEL BALTICO!!! Danzica sopot gdynia sono innamorata sono posti meravigliosi!!!!
Enjoy Gdańsk with us 🇵🇱
Share this video with someone who should visit this great city 🤙🏼🇵🇱
Milk bars are not an invention of communism, it was first created in the nineteenth century. The biggest boom was after the First World War, just look at Wikipedia.!!!
@@maskot5pu Thanks for watching.
@@TwoMadExplorers Please do not understand me wrong, some Pole probably told you that, unfortunately many of us do not know the history of our country.
You make very pleasant movies to watch, best regards and good luck.
@@maskot5pu Thank you 🙏 we love to know the true history of Poland 🇵🇱
We read this fact from many articles online 👍
Thanks 😊👍
Apparently, there are ideas to build glass skyscrapers in Gdańsk somewhere near this historic old town. What do you think, is it a good idea for Gdańsk to build a lot of skyscrapers, such as Warsaw? As tourists do you think - should Gdańsk change into a city like New York or something similar?
Beautiful city, can't wait to go back there again some day.
Oo Gdańsk 💪😎🇵🇱
🇵🇱😊🇵🇱❤️
beautiful city👍👍👍
Yes! One of our favourites 🍻❤️🇵🇱
Wow! So good pronunciation of Długi Targ!
Wow, amazing! I watch every episode of this series and now I am nearby Gdańsk in Łeba. You should came here and visit polish desert!
❤️😊👍 thanks so much for watching!
Gdansk is Gdansk, we know that, but the weather... Just two weeks ago it was over 30 degrees. You never know...
😆😆🌧🌧☀️☀️
Such a historical place. We went on that boat when we visited. Pity about the rain 🌧️
As a history lover I loved Gdansk! I am also an amber lover, and it was like amber heaven for me! I couldn't resist making a couple of purchases!
This is not Wisła, this is Motława (pron. Motwava) river. Greetings.
👍👍
.....Two opposing paths of expansion also intersected here: the constant drive of the Polish state to the north and the German pressure to the east. The clash of these two forces influenced the fate of the city for many centuries. In the 11th century, the settlement, and with it the entire region, belonged to the Kingdom of Poland, and then - for over two hundred years - it was under the rule of East Pomeranian dukes, who at the end of the 13th century ceded their domain to the rulers of Poland, Przemysł II and finally Władysław The elbow. In 1308, Gdańsk was armed by the Teutonic Knights, who ruled until 1456, when Royal Prussia, and with them Gdańsk, were - for over three centuries - within the borders of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. Lost to Prussia in 1793. In the years 1807-1814 and 1920-1939, Gdańsk was a Free City. In 1945 - by the decision of the great powers during the Potsdam conference (and previously a unilateral decision of the authorities of the Soviet Union) - it was re-granted to Poland....
Another great video from one of the most beautiful places in Poland.
❤️❤️🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱
I've been there in May with my son. It was his first time in Gdańsk and he was absolutely mesmerized. I was too, since I haven't seen this beautiful city for almost twenty years. Ok, guys, so next step ➡️ Hel Peninsula 😍💙
5:30 it''s not Wisła it's Motława river. Very good grand tour and relation. Best from Gdańsk :)
Gdansk is not only one of the most beautiful cities in Poland, but also in the world.
Polska 🇵🇱 ❤️
Love Gadask. Hopefully return soon. Great video guys 👍😊
Another one! LFG 🇵🇱
Awesome intro....Awesome colors and ALWAYS Awesome job guys!
That city looks beautiful and I'm glad the SFO hat has returned 😁
Cheers guys ❤️❤️❤️❤️😊😊😊
You can tour that ship Sołdyk that you went by on your river boat cruise. It was interesting to tour. Also if you have time, Malbork Castle is really great to tour. Short train ride there from Gdańsk.
Jak zwykle super filmik ,montaż pierwsza klasa miłej dalszej podróży kochani po naszej pięknej Polsce
🇵🇱❤️🇵🇱❤️🇵🇱❤️
Welcome to my home town 😀Very nice to see you here. If you like viewpoints I would highly recommend the highest viewpoint i believe in the whole tri-city which is is the olivia star scyscraper with it's observation deck and restaurant. You could see a greater chunk of Gdańsk, Sopot some Gdynia districts, the whole Gulf of Gdańsk and the Hel Peninsula as well.
Guys go to Malbork there is the largest red brick castle in the Europe or maybe even cross the world but I'm not sure. "Zamek krzyzacki w Malborku" it's worth it to exploring.
Very soon we will be there 🇵🇱
🖱
👍👍
Been 3 times. Absolutely love the place. Stunning.
Yes 👍 it’s amazing!
Try to stay in Poland until the beginning of August , on 4-6 August there is a free Pol and rock festival ;) biggest open air festival in Europe :)
Wow 😯
Gadansk is one of the most beautiful places in the world.
Gdańsk is the most beautiful city in Poland, and while you are there, visit Sopot which is also beautiful and amazing. Also since you are in Gdańsk try to go to "Chleb i Wino" (Bread and Wine) restaurant. Have a great time and enjoy😊
❤️🇵🇱❤️🇵🇱❤️🇵🇱❤️🇵🇱 Thanks for watching!
Gdansk is beautiful. But Sopot is heaven!💯😉👌
Wow! I must admit that your preparation and knowledge you have about the places you're visiting in Poland is amazing. Not only this one, but all the previous. I can only say: Guys I recommend your channel !
🇵🇱❤️😊😊😊 thank you!
Such a cool area!! Thanks for sharing!!! Great vlogging! You really did capture the essence of this area! Well done!

As you might noticed, in less than two weeks, the annual Jarmark Festival -St Dominic's Fair will take place in Gdańsk(23.07-14.08.2022) .On the second day of opening ,the Feast od Bread ,lots of deliciousness and fragrances.The traditions of St.Dominic's Fair dates back to 1260 when pope Alexander IV alloved the Dominicans of Gdańsk to grant 100 days later indulgences on the their founders feast day.
Wow! Nice! Thank you Pawel 🇵🇱🙏
beautiful city🥰
Yes! 🇵🇱❤️
You are slowly becoming true Poles. You start complaining about the weather. It is a national sport in Poland. Although recently it was raining on me while visiting the Mayan pyramids on the border with Guatemala. It's not possible for it to rain in Mexico, it's disappointing. :-)
It's not a Wisła river, it's Motława River :)
Gdansk is a beautiful city. I approve this message ;-)
Yes! Such an amazing, charming place 🇵🇱❤️🍻
@@TwoMadExplorers If you like history you should check out WWII museum. Is really good.
@@TwoMadExplorers and there is a statue of Fahrenheit since he was born in Gdansk.
After around 40+ critical comments of saying it’s not the Wisła river… we get it 👍😂 IT’S THE MOTŁAWA!!!!
I'm happy you had a good time , I recomend for you to visit WWII museum. On your video you can see it at 6:26
Why Polish city is so clean pozdrawiam z Oxford
It’s BEAUTIFUL! Gdańsk ❤️🇵🇱
@@TwoMadExplorers try explaining Sandomierz Poland jest Amber
Thanks to show Poland and ❤ enjoy pierogi
❤️
🇵🇱❤️🍻
Great City....I Want to Go There TKS
I had no idea that Poland has so many indoor malls. My bf and I love indoor malls, it’s a nostalgic feeling for us.
Thanks for showing the different ones there are 😀.
Of course the historical buildings are in a class of their own, we like to see those too 👍
❤️😊
The difficult and complicated recent history of Gdańsk was immortalized in the book Tin drum - Gunter Grass (there is also a film from the 1970s). Up-to-date book. The Russian army has not changed for decades. The events in Ukraine confirm this. St. Mary's Basilica in Gdańsk is the largest red brick church in the world. A bar mleczny (literally translated as "milk bar" from Polish) is a Polish cafeteria. The first milk bar, called "Mleczarnia Nadświdrzańska," was established in 1896 in Warsaw by Stanisław Dłużewski, a member of the Polish landed gentry. Although the typical bar mleczny had a menu based on dairy items, these establishments generally also served other, non-dairy traditional Polish dishes as well. The commercial success of the first milk bars encouraged other businessmen to copy this type of restaurant. As Poland regained its independence after World War I, milk bars appeared across most of the country. They offered relatively cheap but nourishing food, and thus achieved even more prominence during the economic depression of the 1930s and World War II. Contrary to official propaganda, the majority of the population was poor, and even moderately-priced restaurants were derided as "capitalist". During the post-war years, most restaurants were nationalized and then closed down by the communist authorities. In the mid-1960s, milk bars were common as a means of offering cheap meals to people working in companies that had no official canteen. They still served mostly dairy-based and vegetarian meals, especially during the period of martial law in the early 1980s, when meat was rationed. After the fall of the communist system and the end of the centrally planned economy, the majority of milk bars went bankrupt, as they were superseded by regular restaurants. In the early 2010s, milk bars began to make a comeback. They became small, inexpensive restaurants .Due to their good locations, milk bars often fall victim to gentrification and are defended by activist groups.Today milk bars are privately owned, but partly subsidized by the state and local governments, which allows it to offer low prices.
Gunter Grass miał sam kłopoty ze swoją niechlubną przeszłością i prawdomównością.
@@euzebiuszzagorski1437 A co ma piernik do wiatraka???? Nie kompromituj się! Pożal się Boże strażnik moralności i prawdomówności się odezwał! Pajac!!!!!!!!!!!!
Świetne dane historyczne. "Bary mleczne", (Milk Bars) powinny być oficjalną polską siecią restauracji "fast food" oferującą polskie jedzenie.
@@ziutbryk531 Poniekąd są 🙂 Wiesz gdyby ktoś z nich zrobił sieciówkę, to była by tragedia. Jedne są lepsze, drugie gorsze, to ich urok.
My home,my city
Gdańsk and all tri city is great but this region Poland have the coldest climate and weather in country.
Can't go wrong with Gdansk. Always beautiful! I truly enjoyed the video and I'm already looking forward to the next one.
Thanks so much 😊❤️🇵🇱
Teraz zapraszam do pięknej stolicy zielonych płuc Polski, czyli zapraszam do Białegostoku! Do miasta mniej odwiedzanego przez turystów, lecz jak bardzo urokliwego. A przy okazji zwiedzania Białegostoku warto też zajechać do Supraśla jak i Białowieży :)
I'll be there in two weeks. I can't wait . I come from Poland but I haven't been there for 14 years. Great video.
Thank you!!!
5:34 the river is called Motława, it's the side stream of Wisła in the north
Gdańsk is a top league among Polish cities.
Love this channel ❤
We love you too! Thanks for the support!
Welcome to my birth city, there is no other city like Gdansk. Thank you for showing my town
🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️
Great video.Good luck !!!
I wonder why Poland is clean and safe... I don't know, but I can guess
Hey Guys, thank you for your beautiful and interesting video about my city ❤ I'm glad you enjoyed this trip. One note. There is no Wisła river in old Gdańsk. There is Motława river. And Kanał Raduni in the Forum mall
Great view from a church tower and from a boat. Highly recommended to go to Hel (Hel Peninsula 👿). You can take buss number 666 or train. Recommended train. National Geographic put a beach in Hel in 15 most beautiful beaches on the world.
If you guys be in Gdynia , take a walk on the cliff. I know that in Ireland has most beautiful cliffs, but maybe you find some similar . Have fun guys!
Thanx for the content. Love the city sooooo much. But there is a mistake, it's not the Wisła river, it's Motława.
Hi wow great video thankyou for shareng greetings from #Philippines to #KrakowPoland enjoy watching here glad to see you
So greaat! I can't wait to see viedo from my lovely Gdynia! :)
❤️🇵🇱❤️
I live here, my beautiful city 😍. Westerplatte my favorite place in gdansk and I recommend island of sobieszewska near gdansk
Good job !!! Beautiful place !!! 👍😉
forward forward always backwards never❤️❤️
I spent a week in February in Gdansk. I used to live in Swietego Ducha Street in a beautiful building stylized as old one. It's almost a middle of the down town. I have to say that I have not seen for ages such a beautiful city as Gdansk.
Agreed ❤️
St. Marys Church ist the largerst red brick church not only in Poland, it´s the largest red brick church in the world! There is another superlative building in Gdansk: the falowiec in the district Przymorze is with its over 850 m the longest residential building in Poland and the second longest in Europe.
Zostańcie u nas 🙂
The river called Motlawa guys,not Wisla😉
If you are in Gdańsk 15-16.07 (Friday - Saturday) look for Globaltica Festival in Gdynia Kolibki/Orłowo. It's world music festival.
Another great video! Just two comments - 1) St. Mary's Basilica (formally the Basilica of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary) is not only the largest brick church in Poland. In fact, it is one of the three largest brick churches in the world (and which of them is the biggest depends on how you measure the size. No one knows for sure.). 2) "Bar Mleczny" is not a communist invention. The first one was established on 1896 in Warsaw, and plenty of them followed after WWI. They were especially popular in the 1930s, during the economic depression.
Thank you ❤️❤️❤️🥰🥰
Nice
Love to watch yours video,lots of effort,don't forget about Malbork Castle;)
Thank you Pawel ❤️🇵🇱
Czekam na Wasze wrażenia z Sopotu 😀 Trójmiasto jest przepiękne!
What's Up
Since you are boht red bricks buildings lovers : ) thous yours next must go city shoud be Malbork and the castle, which was headquaters of the Teutonic Order! Knights ghosts are awaiting for you both! Uaaahhh!
@3:46 ... and the third largest brick church in the world.
Wooooow nice!
That's not true. It is the largest brick church in the world.
❤️❤️❤️
If you are still in Gdańsk you should definetly go to museum of world war II. Its modern and incradable. Sorry for my gramar :(
I recommend you Wejherowo and hike in the Kalwaria there. This is near Gdynia.
My Gdańsk experience was just not that great, but of course I did have the misfortune of arriving the weekend that the summer holiday started in Poland so it was overrun with tourists. I was, however, impressed with the European Solidarity Center. Westerplatte and the Baltic coastline were also worth it and easily accessible by bus. I may give the city another chance someday, but it will have to be in the off season.
Yes it’s definitely too expensive and overly crowded during these months!
Thanks so much for the support and comments ❤️😊
Similarly to Hamburg it's even called Speicher-Island
Wow nice!!!
Well done as always ! I did my studying there & lived in Gdansk -Oliwa/Polanki .Great times in the 80's despite the hardships .Will be back for 5 days at the end of this month , staying in those apartments you think that look like from Hamburg . We did not find the prices super high ,2 bedroom apartment for $120/night in prime location . Too bad we will miss you by 2 weeks -for sure would have invited you to dinner ! Don't miss WWII Museum .Thank you for such great series of videos from the best country in Europe ( for sure ! being very subjective !!!!).
Thanks so much Alexandra ❤️🇵🇱
Aw thank you for your great support!
@@TwoMadExplorers you are welcome ! By the way the reason the basilica is painted white ....it was burnt inside at the end of WWII by soviet army ,used to store cattle /horses .My Mom remembers how it looked before -like the basilica in Krakow , full of frescos .It would be very expensive to recreate it now .
schön
Danzig ist echt toll! 🇵🇱♥️
Sie erwähnen die Speicherstadt in Hamburg. Im Norddeutschen Raum gab es in Königsberg die meisten Fachwerkspeicher, heute Kaliningrad, die sind leider bei den Bombenangriffen 1944 auf die Stadt zerstört worden. In Danzig haben es die Polen scheinbar wieder schön aufgebaut
👍😁😁👏
🇵🇱🙏❤️
We are happy you have reached Gdańsk and the Tri-City. We love your vlogs, you are both so friendly and positive, full of energy! We love you, even more because Naomi is from one of our favourite German cities: Düsseldorf, (and you like our favourite German city - Hamburg, where we used to live in the past), not only because Luke is from one of our favourite European countries Ireland, where we have been to several times and we love Ireland (especially Howth, Greystones, Galway, the Aran Islands, Gweedore, Tory and Gola Islands). We hope you have enjoyed your visits to Sopot and Gdynia (one of our favourite cities on the Baltic Sea). We hope you finally go by train to Hel on the Hel Peninsula (you can always watch some films on our channel filmed on the beautiful and unique Hel Peninsula). You should visit all the villages and settlements on the Hel Peninsula, from Hel Cape and Hel (with its lighthouse - you can have splendid views from the top of it), Jurata (with its fine viewpoint tower and wooden Jurata Pier - both with free entrance) (you can walk 2 km to) Jastarnia (with its harbour and the interesting church), Kuźnica (with its small harbour) and Chałupy (Poland's capital of windsurfing and kitesurfing). Rozewie lighthouse is also worth visiting. We wish you good luck with the whimsical and changeable Polish weather and enjoy your summer in northern Poland, all the best. Warmest wishes and friendly greetings, Paweł and Gosia 🌞 🧡 🌤 🌹 ⛱ 🌅 🧡 😊 🌞 🌟 🍀 🇵🇱 🏝 🏖 🌅 🧡 💙
We love you too ❤️😊 thanks so much ❤️
thanks guys, I was born and porobably die i nGdansk, and I love it :)
🇵🇱 ❤️
I am in Gdynia. But today I visited Sopot and Gdansk Oliwa the basilica with the biggest organs in Poland.
Such an amazing place ☀️🇵🇱❤️
Go check City of Elblag it's only 55 km from Gdansk. U can see 👀 there a unique bout ride ( its called a " kanal Elblaski " ) on water 💧 and rail as well its a kind of pushing and pulling platforms who was moving the boats from one site to another . Good luck Guys
Nice thanks for the tips 🇵🇱❤️☀️
Go 49ers. Nice to see the city where I was born.
❤️🙏😊🇵🇱
the river in Gdansk is not Wisla but Motlawa
Grüsse aus Deutschland weiter so !!!
❤️❤️❤️❤️
05:33 Motława, not Wisła😊
Which city did you prefer Gdansk or Wroclow? I am flying home in Feb and want to take my folks to one of them for a long weekend. Both look great.
In terms of things to do, Gdansk is much cooler and much larger with more options for everything. In terms of architecture, charm and walkability, Wroclaw is much better.
It depends what you’re looking for 👍
Gdańsk is more developed and more expensive too.. Wroclaw is more quaint and gives off like a artsy vibe!
Hope this helps a bit more
The best is Bar Turystyczny (Milk Bar) very delicious like home ,highly recommend
Oh wow amazing thank you!
Dear friends I do also recommend take boat or train trip to town Hel - very relaxing to see fishing village ! I never know Gdańsk is so crowded from tourists? Gdańsk is very popular with tourists from Scandinavia countries? Gdańsk have unique history? Was the richest town in Poland! Independent free city! Had own currency ! Because was very expensive city land was very expensive so people build houses upwards? Polish and German live in the city in harmony until nationalism hit Germany!
I do think the war museum is one of the best in country I am now in Sydney Australia and is cold and rain all the time going back in August enjoy 😉 So pls take your girlfriend to Hel 😂😂😂
Sounds amazing! Thanks so much for support and comments ❤️🇵🇱
You are not leaving outside of Gdańsk, for sure. You are leaving probably somewhere around Wrzeszcz or Oliwa area. It is not outside of Gdańsk. It is still Gdańsk. You can find beautiful beaches also in Gdańsk.
If you want to eat good pierogi you should go to Mandu restaurant.
Nice! Thanks for watching ❤️🇵🇱
