To be honest, Gdansk wasn’t firmly on my idea of places to visit in Poland. In truth, I’d probably overlooked it in lieu of the other beautiful places in Poland or even the stunning castles, too. Though I’m so happy I remedied this with a spontaneous trip to the city. Honestly, it’s gorgeous and there are so many of the best things to do in Gdansk dotted all across the city.
Perched on the northern coast of Poland, it’s a pretty historic city that’s filled with cobbled streets, historic buildings and plenty of yummy places to eat. Better still, it’s the kind of city that’s great to visit at any time of the year.
You see, in the winter months, it’s filled with cosy European Christmas markets; whilst in the summer, it’s a great place to chill after a sunny afternoon in Sopot.
Whether you’re heading to the city for a long weekend or even part of a bigger trip around Poland, I wanted to pop over a few of my favourite suggestions on the best things to do in Gdansk during your visit.
