Gdańsk
Gdańsk is as old as Poland itself. Located in the north of the country on the sea coast at the mouth of the Vistula, Gdańsk was the Polish gateway to the sea, a thriving, wealthy city, an important Hanseatic port and a Free City. It is here that the majority of Gdańsk summer art festivals are held, as well as the famous Dominican Fair which attracts many visitors from all over the world. A real masterpiece of architecture is the short ulica Mariacka (Holy Mary Street) with its narrow houses and spacious terraces under which are located amber jewellery galleries. Read more...
