Gdansk

by kazbah - last update: Oct 5, 2005

Why do people think I'm Norwegian
When you mention Gdansk to people who have never been, they probably think of shipyards and nothing else.

Gdansk is actually a very pretty city with loads of historical old buildings that at times look very similar to the old Dutch buildings of Amsterdam.

Oh yeah the shipyard is big !!!!

Places to see

From Gdansk places worth a visit are Westerplatte ( this you can do on a boat that takes you through the shipyard )
You get these boats just at the bottom of the main old street that I am standing on n this picture ( yeah I know it has a name , but can I be bothered to dig it out )

Also train will take you to Sopot which is a seaside resort, or you can go the other way to Malbork and see Malbork castle which is rather special.
In a refective mood

Malbork castle

Malbork is just a short trip on the train from Gdansk and the castle is rather special. Much of it was destroyed after the 2nd WW but it has been rebuilt in a way that you would never know

Pros:"Good location for other interesting places"
Cons:"A couple of days will be long enough to see the old bit of Gdansk"
