One of the city's most striking features is its stunning architecture, particularly in the Main Town (Główne Miasto). Here, you’ll find the majestic Long Market (Długi Targ), lined with colorful, ornate townhouses that transport visitors back to the city’s golden age. The iconic Neptune’s Fountain stands proudly in front of the Artus Court, symbolizing Gdańsk’s connection to the sea.

The Gdańsk Shipyard is another significant site, where the Solidarity movement, led by Lech Wałęsa, began in the 1980s. The European Solidarity Centre is a must-visit museum that offers a powerful and immersive look at the struggle for freedom and democracy in Poland and beyond.

For those who enjoy scenic views, a stroll along the Motława River is essential. Here, the medieval Gdańsk Crane (Żuraw), once the largest port crane in Europe, serves as a reminder of the city’s storied maritime past.
