JAPAN TRAVEL GUIDE: WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
The trip to Japan was a dream that reigned in the most beautiful corner of my bucket list and my heart.. Now I am writing all about Japan with the joy of having this dream come true. In my Japan travel notes you will find everything from Japanese cuisine to Japanese nightlife. At the end of the article, we will be looking for a cheap flight ticket to Japan, since we do not have any problems with Japan visa. So JAPAN TRAVEL GUIDE: THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW?
How to find cheap tickets to Japan, what are ticket prices, how to get cheap transportation in Japan, will we starve at Japanese cuisine? To answer these questions, I start The Most Asked Questions About Japan.
Here I leave my first vlog about Japan.. Subscribe to my Youtube channel so you don’t miss other videos.
1- PLANET JAPAN HAS A VERY DIFFERENT CULTURE FROM THE WORLD! HOW ARE JAPANESE PEOPLE? IS JAPAN SAFE?
Japan is my 28th country, but I have never seen such a different culture, such a different world in my life.. Undoubtedly, at the beginning of my most unforgettable travels, I will remember you forever, my dear Japan.
Especially after seeing the kindness, hospitality, always smiling, hardworking and intelligence of Japanese people, I realized that my friends, the Japanese are the superior race.. The dominant religion in the country is Shintoism and Buddhism.. Shintoism, on the other hand, is based on the foundations of goodness that I just mentioned to you.. So when these people do good, they kind of worship.. This is not conscious, they are raised this way.
My uncle’s wife is Japanese and he has 3 children.. Already in Japan, we stayed in Osaka with our bride Kaneko’s mother for 5 days after Tokyo.. I am very happy about this because it gave me the opportunity to observe much more.. I will explain the details below in the accommodation section, but in summary, Okasan (meaning mother in Japanese) is 72 years old, and his brother and his wife, who live next door, are 70 years old.. The man had a record collection of 40 years and was a big Jazz fan so he played Jazz on his gramophone for us.. He showered us with gifts, even gifted a 150-year-old family heirloom.. You know these people are not old. People who do all their own work, are full of life, and are very happy because they are kept in prosperity by their social state.. And even though we are 40 years old, they treated us not as children but as individuals.. Now we have Japanese friends!
They like to have fun, on weekend nights the streets are full of crazy Japanese teenagers. Life ends early on weekdays. No one hangs out, no one bothers. I didn’t even hear a horn sound for 1 week.. The Japanese have internalized the feeling of being a society to the fullest and live for the society.
Remember, Japan does not require a visa from us! They even like Turks too much.. In fact, Cappadocia is the city most of which is on the bucket list!
2- WHAT IS THE BUDGET FOR JAPAN TRAVEL? IS JAPAN EXPENSIVE?
Is Japan expensive?. Will the prices of food, drink and transportation kill us in Japan? i live your pride. 1 week, 2 people flight ticket, food, transportation, accommodation (We stayed with our relatives for 5 nights including 2 nights) totaling 2000 USD!
Japan of course is expensive, but with the tactics I will give you, it is not that expensive. Especially about eating and drinking, we did not sit down without looking at Foursquare.. Although we had problems finding the place we were looking for due to the alphabet, we overcame this obstacle with the help of the people.. We tried the local flavors of many Japanese cuisines, but always in the most affordable way.. We spent the afternoon with the snacks we bought from 7 Eleven markets.. We preferred sushi, seafood and ramen dinners in the evenings.. I will explain what ramen is in the Japanese cuisine section below.
I am sharing the items of our total travel budget for 2 people one by one below.. Details will be in the rest of the article.. Keep reading!
- Flight Ticket: 900 USD
- JR Pass: 544 USD
- City Transportation: 53 USD
- Food and Drink: 300-350 USD
- Accommodation:
<
strong>200 USD (2 nights)
3- HOW TO FIND CHEAP TICKETS TO JAPAN?
As you know, the biggest budget of a travel budget his pen creates a plane ticket. Especially intercontinental flights.. In order to minimize this damage during trips to distant lands, the additional smart move to be made is to purchase the ticket at least 6 months in advance.. Sometimes I even bought it 1 year ago. As a matter of fact, I bought my ticket from Istanbul to Tokyo 6 months ago from Qatar Airways for 450 USD per person, or 1575 TL at the current exchange rate.. Of course, I bought the ticket by following the campaign periods and I definitely recommend you to buy a ticket during the campaign period.. I am announcing all the campaigns on my Instagram account @oykununoykuleri.
If you want cheap tickets, you should not hesitate to take connecting flights. It is not difficult at all. Qatar Airways is an airline we are very pleased with.. Our flights via Doha give up our long-distance travels. Your 1-2 hour transfers with Qatar Airways at the world’s most luxurious airport, Hamad Airport, are like snacks.. Usually transfer times are like this.. If you have a transfer exceeding 8 hours, you can already get a free city tour from the tourist information desk.. This means a new short trip for you.
4- HOW TO GET TRANSPORTATION IN JAPAN CHEAP? SHOULD JR PASS BUY TICKETS?
Since this is one of the cornerstones of cheapening a trip to Japan, I wrote a separate article explaining the details.. TRANSPORTATION GUIDE IN JAPAN JAPAN RAIL PASS Please click for the article.
5- DO WE HAVE LANGUAGE HARD IN JAPAN? DO JAPANESE SPEAK ENGLISH?
Japanese mostly do not speak English. Of course, there are more people who know more in Tokyo, but you can observe that this rate decreases as you head towards Hiroshima.. For one thing, you can’t say I understand the signs because the alphabet is different.. subway etc.. English direction is not excessive in places. Some restaurants may not have an English menu.. However, none of these seemingly negative items will cause you any trouble in Japan.. The reason is the extremely benevolent and wonderfully helpful Japanese.
We have always traveled using offline maps of Google Maps and Ulmon. I suggest you to download it and mark the points you want to visit on the map before you go.. However, in places where these applications are insufficient, he helped us by turning his way and walking for 15 minutes with us, even if we wanted to go to a place in the opposite direction of the direction he was going, even if he did not speak English.. The most perfect people I’ve ever seen in my life. Please do not be afraid of this issue.
6- WHAT ARE THE INTERESTINGS SPECIFIC TO JAPAN? THINGS YOU CAN ONLY SEE IN JAPAN?
The elevators these people use start from the 1st floor, so ground floor means 1st floor.. Japanese people wear masks even though they feel sick. Yes, for this reason, they are walking around with masks just because they think about the people in front of them.
Anime music playing in the subway, arcades everywhere, maid (maid) cafes, cat-owl cafes where you can show love by paying their money, technology, consumer society being a pure race (no fat, blond, bald Japanese), crossroads where thousands of people cross at the same time, streets full of neon signs, bars in the form of rooms where only 5-6 people can sit, bamboo forests, ten-story subway stations and underground cities. Get ready to travel to another planet! They are such civilized people that even a beggar came to us by opening Google Translate on his smart phone and asked us for money.
7- HOW MANY DAYS ARE REQUIRED FOR JAPAN? HOW MANY DAYS TO VISIT JAPAN? HOW TO PLAN A JAPAN TRAVEL ROUTE?
You can plan your Japan trip for 7-15 days, with a minimum of 7 days. But if it were me, if I had 15 days, I would go to South Korea for the remaining time after 7-10 days in Japan.
I write our Japan route day by day.. We are very satisfied with this program.. I recommend it as a guide.
- Tokyo (2 days) – We got up at 6 am and went to bed at 1 am.. It just arrived.
- Kyoto (1 day) – If there is time, it’s right 2 days. You can go up to 3 days.
- Hiroshima and Miyajima Island (1 day) / Evening road return Kobe (Kobe Beef Meal)
- Nara (1 day) – We spent the evening in Osaka. Osaka is more beautiful at night.
- Osaka (1 day)
- Osaka Universal Studios (1 day) – Harry Potter’s I went for the magic world and had a lot of fun along with many more activities! Osaka Universal Studios is present in the USA, Singapore and Japan. I recommend it if it interests you.
8- SHOULD YOU PREFER A HOME OR HOTEL FOR ACCOMMODATION IN JAPAN? WHAT IS A CAPSULE HOTEL?
We stayed at the hotel for 2 nights in Tokyo, Japan. The only thing that made me feel like I was in Japan was the Japanese TOTO brand amazing toilet system. In my opinion, for a Japanese accommodation experience, you should stay in capsule hotels in Tokyo and ryokan in Kyoto.
On the name of the capsule hotel. a place where you can get cheap accommodation and experience as if a single person is inside a coffin in the form of a capsule. Of course, such marginalities do not come to our Umur, we could not stay.. It’s not unfair either, because capsules are not places for everyone to stay.. You must be devoid of claustrophobia. Ryokan is authentic hotels made of Japanese wooden houses.. It can give people a super experience.
We stayed in a Japanese house in Osaka for 5 days after staying in Tokyo for 2 days.. In this house, which is organized according to the philosophy of Feng Shui, I was amazed by the logic of few things, empty corners, the energy circulating in the house and the fact that people did not have anything to do with worldly goods.. We slept on a floor bed on a wicker mattress, no frills. Grams did not hurt here and there.
Of course, not everyone has relatives in Japan 😊 For this reason, you can think of hotel spending as $50-100 per night as an added bonus to your travel budget.
9- HOW IS THE JAPANESE CUISINE? WHAT TO EAT IN JAPAN?
After the last time I was very hungry in Thailand, I sighed to see what we would eat or drink in Japan.. Yeah! Now we put our prejudices aside together. You know, there are many delicious options in Japanese cuisine.
The cuisine is definitely not all about sushi.. In fact, on the first day, we couldn’t find a sushi maker in Tokyo.. Then we went to the Japanese sushi shop in the back streets called Namazuko. You take the sushi plate you want from a rotating belt and eat it. Pricing is made according to the color of the plates.. Compared to Turkey, you have both cheap and many options.
Another dish I eat and drink with a lot of love is Ramen Ramen. Ramen is a soup like a mixture of our broth and head trotter.. It contains spicy, green onion slices and noodles.. We were amazed by its taste! In fact, if anyone knows how to find this soup in Istanbul, write it to his reward.. We tried it at a place called Ichiran in Osaka.
Squid, octopus and shrimps fried on sticks were also very successful.. As a person, I would eat squid with soy sauce anyway.
But I haven’t eaten meat until now! This is nee! Kobe Meat, which makes us cry because I want to keep it in my mouth and live with this dish forever, is a flavor you should definitely try. We chose to eat this when we went to Kobe using our JR Pass. This meat, which we eat on the ground, is obtained by making cows drink beer and not walking at all, with the aim of reaching a soft leavened consistency.. Since it is the most expensive meat in the world, we did a long research and with the optimum decision in terms of both taste and budget, we went to the Steakland restaurant in Kobe.. The cook cooks the meat at your table and you eat it with chopsticks. There is no need to cut it, it falls apart while eating.
In addition to all these, a dish with meat in the dough, such as ravioli, Okonomiyaki, which consists of ingredients wrapped in dough, referred to as Japanese pizza, poisonous fish Fugu is among the flavors that can be tried. I advise you to be careful with Fugu, a certain number of people die from Fugu every year.. As I said above, we received a lot of support from Foursquare in terms of price, taste and English menu control.. It was quite tedious and funny to get there by looking for the Japanese language of the place on the signs!
10- WHAT ARE EXPERIENTIAL ACTIVITIES IN JAPAN?
Kimono for 100 TL per day You can rent or buy it for 200 TL to wander around the streets of Kyoto, watch sumo wrestling at Ryōgoku Kokugikan in Tokyo, attend a tasting event of the Japanese traditional drink Sake (I love Sake! Make sure to bring a few bottles to your home), Kyoto’ You can also go to the Geisha tea ceremony, attend a free traditional Japanese dance lesson on a Sunday you go to Tokyo Senso-ji Temple, and learn Sakura Sakura.
My Japan articles will continue to be published on the blog under Tokyo Travel Guide, Osaka – Nara – Kobe Travel Notes, Kyoto Travel Notes, Hiroshima and Miyajima Travel Guide.

Greece‘s greenest island Lesbos owes its green nature to water resources. Lesbos, the third largest island of the country, has lush forests, water springs, tiny canyons, endemic plants and incredible mountain views.
The island’s second largest city, Plomari, is and places that manage to stay away from the negative effects of urbanization due to its geographical location.. When you say the second largest city of the island, Plomari is not a city-like place.. The size that we can call the largest town or seaside resort in Turkey.. With its scattering mountain villages, the population of 7 thousand finds it difficult.
Plomari Square
With its pristine beaches, historical wooden houses, small taverns, plane and olive trees, coffee houses and views, Plomari journey is one of the best options to get away from it all.. No matter how crowded and active the center of Lesbos is, Plomari experiences the opposite.
The birthplace of Barbaros
As Captain-i Derya, the first captain of the Ottoman Empire Barbaros Hayrettin Pasha, who was the pasha and the great admiral, was born in Plomari in 1473.. Although there is no trace of Barbaros in Plomari, this name is very important for the history of the seafaring town.
Akrasi, Ampeliko, Megalohori, Neohori, Paleohori, which is known as Plomaritohoria on the south coast of Lesbos The town, consisting of the villages of Plagia, Trigonas, has a strategic location.. Dominating Chios in Greece and Karaburun in Izmir, the town has a deep-rooted trade tradition.
Beautiful photos can be taken in the side streets of Plomari
The place where ouzo and olive oil soap were first produced
strong>
Within the Greek islands, 19. Turning into one of the most important centers of industry, commerce, production and maritime trade in the mid-century, Plomari is also the place where the Greek national drink ouzo was first produced.. Today, just like raki, the quality of ouzo is measured by the water used.. Since Plomari has the best quality drinking water sources in the geography of Greece, the aroma it adds to ouzo is noticed everywhere.. There is no production today, except for a few ouzo workshops.. Plomari, with its beaches and cultural tourism, is a region where European, American and Turkish tourists spend more time in high season.. Since it is not very well known, the region, which is not crowded and uncomplicated, is ideal for those who want to relax and have a peaceful holiday. Ouzo, which he throws, is consumed in a similar way in coffee houses today.. Drinks thrown together while playing backgammon or chatting with friends accompany the pleasant conversation.. Unlike Turkey, the coffeehouse culture in Greece also includes the offering of liquor.
ouzos produced in Plomari
Because of the ouzo production, it is between Lesbos and Plomari. there is serious competition. What makes the cute town one step ahead of this competition is the quality water source and the qualified anise grown in the region with aromatic plants.. It is possible to count Pitsiladi, Yannaçi, Varvayani and Plomari/Isidoro Arvaniti among the ouzos that have become brands in the town.
Things to do in Plomari
The so-called ‘old town’ in the center of the town, which is one of the oldest settlements on the island, is where you can witness typical Greek architecture.. Two-story, bay window, mostly wooden houses line the narrow streets.. It is essential to enjoy walking among the historical houses on quiet and calm streets without traffic noise and to breathe the atmosphere of the town.
There are many shops, shops and coffee houses around the big plane tree in the city square.. After wandering the streets, it is quite enjoyable to relax, have a drink and chat with the local people.
The beaches, each carrying the blue flag, which are chirpy in the summer season, are an unforgettable experience for those who love sea, sand and sun holidays.. Agios Isidoros Beach is shown among the few beaches not only in the region but also in Greece.
Oceanis Cafe
Make sure to try frappe, one of the cold drinks consumed by the Greeks.. Iced coffee, which is prepared by adding milk and sugar according to preference, is available in cafes and coffee houses in every corner of the town.. One of my suggestions is the Oceanis Cafe, where we sit to drink frappe with its stylish design.. Souffle is around 3€, waffle is around 4€, frappe is around 2€, Turkish (Greek) coffee is around 1.5€.. When you sit in all restaurants and cafes, a large glass of water is offered free of charge.. Get immersed in life by sitting in the cafes that stretch towards the beach and the port.
There are 3 different museums in the town that appeal to enthusiasts. Varvayianni Ouzo Museum, Lomari Isidoros Arvanitis Ouzo Museum and Soap Museum are must-sees to see the most important production tools for this town.. The hospitality and warm welcome at the museums make people happy.
Where to stay in Plomari
There are nearly 25 accommodation options in the charming town.. Among these places that can be preferred according to the budget and accommodation concept, there is also a hostel, a luxury studio.. So before you go, decide exactly what kind of place you want to stay.. I stayed at Frini Studios on my trip to Plomari. There is a special 10 percent discount for Keşfetsek at the property that got full marks from me for its hospitality and approach.. Check out my Frini Studios post for discount details and a closer look at the facility.
The Mytilene-Plomari Road
How to get to Plomari
<
Plomari is 42 km from the center of the island of Lesvos.. Due to the nature of the road, this journey takes approximately 50 minutes by private vehicle.. In order to go to this town from Turkey, it is necessary to take a ferry from Ayvalık to Lesbos.. After the ferry ride that takes 1 hour and 15 minutes, the port of Lesbos is reached.. There is a municipal bus service between Mytilene and Plomari that runs 3-4 times a day.. However, without the hassle of the city bus, choose a pleasant journey by renting a car and being included in the nature view.
Plomari with its unspoiled nature, friendly people, historical structures, magnificent beaches, ouzo, olive oil and soap >, one of the most beautiful corners of Lesbos. Those planning a trip to Mytilene should spend a few days in this beautiful town.
After our tiring and intense trip to India, we got out of the chaos and arrived in Nepal, where we said “oh there is a world”. We had a comfortable journey to Kathmandu, the capital of Nepal, with a 55-minute flight from Varanasi.. Nepal is 3 hours 20 minutes ahead of Turkey and 15 minutes ahead of India.
From Victoria Subirano’s book named A teacher in Kathmandu so that you can get an idea before you come to Nepal. you can watch the movie “A Mirror in the Sky” which he freely inspired. It is the film that reveals how the education system in Nepal works, poverty and mysticism.
Kathmandu is located in the valley at the confluence of the Vishnumati and Bagmati rivers.. There are dozens of temples hidden between its streets.. While it is difficult to breathe from the exhaust fumes in its narrow streets, it is certain that you will discover many things in the company of colorful shops, peddlers, bookshops and local people.
A blend of 2 religions, It is very possible to see that Buddhism and Hinduism coexist in the country where it is intertwined, and this unity is reflected even in objects and temples.. Whether Buddhist or Hindu, everyone can easily perform their daily rituals according to their religious beliefs.. There are enough temples in the city. Someone who goes to work or wanders around the streets completes his prayer by ringing the bell in the tiny temple on the street and applying the red paint inside the temple to his forehead.. A person who has prayed has red paint on his forehead. When you see this, know that that person has prayed. Let’s not forget that the main element of flower worship. During the worship we witnessed in temples, they offer flowers to their gods and light candles.
We were surprised that the fruits we ate did not taste salty, although agriculture is the livelihood of the country.. Especially when we say that the banana is disgusting that we have not eaten in our life, we say it’s like straw, we ate a banana that tasted just like that.. We got our Nepal visa quickly and very easily at the airport for 25 USD (15 days). They came to meet us because our hotel had a pick-up service.. We arrived at our hotel without the need to take a taxi.
We wrote the details and places we visited in separate sections to be more descriptive.
But first, let’s list the must-haves and some information you need to know for those who are considering coming to Nepal:
Take a mask. Too much air pollution in the city. If you don’t want to walk in dust and smoke, take your mask.
Bring walking shoes. The roads are very bad and dusty.. If you don’t want your nails to get dirty, wear sneakers.
Those who come to Nepal by plane should get a free map from the airport.. The map you will get from the hotels is not very descriptive and guiding.
Visit the bookstores in the Thamel area. There is a wide variety of books, magazines and many products for anyone interested in books, not just travelers.
Buy LP-Nepal. If not, you can find it in Thamel.. But those who do not want to buy definitely need a guide in the temple areas.. But for me, the temples and the figures carved on the temple do not mean anything, if you only want to take pictures of them, you do not even need a guide.. They charge up to 100 rs from tourists, don’t give more than 25 rs. For your information! Locals don’t like discounts in Kathmandu.
. If you are going to shop, know that they sell you exponentially more expensive.
Although not everywhere, 25% tax is charged in many restaurants and cafes.
Have dinner at Northfield Restaurant in the Thamel area.. There will be a pleasant dinner next to a cozy wood fire accompanied by Nepali music.
Entrance fee to all Durbar squares.
Kathmandu Durbar Square : 750 rs.
Bhaktapur Durbar Square : 1100 rs.
Patan Durbar Square : 500 rs.
Eat jujudhav yogurt in Bhaktapur. We should have paid 25 rs for 3 yogurts, but because we are tourists we paid 150 rs
Eat Daal Bhaat. It’s like Indian Thali.
Eat Momo. A dish resembling a tibetan dumpling. Vegetable, buffalo meat, chicken options are available. A little spicy and bitter.
During the time we were in Kathmandu, we made kora in Buddhist temples, translated mantras and sent our wishes to the universe in the fastest way, we worshiped according to God in Hindu temples :), We photographed the most beautiful examples of Newari architecture, followed closely the funerals of the cremated dead in accordance with Hinduism, practiced their rituals, respectively, Svayambhu Mahachaitya (Monkey Temple) temple, Pashupatinath Temple, Boudhanath Stupa, Bhaktapur, Changu Narayan Temple, Kathmandu and Patan Durbar Squares. SummaryArticle NameNepale ArrivalDescriptionAfter our tiring and intense trip to India, we got out of the chaos and arrived in Nepal, where we said “oh there is a world”. We had a comfortable journey with a 55-minute flight from Kathmandu Ya Varanasi, the capital of Nepal.. Nepal is 3 hours and 20 minutes ahead of Turkey and 15 minutes ahead of India.
There are some places that I came across somewhere and noted down and I couldn’t wait to go… Here is such a special route for me in Gdansk
I have been on my master’s degree for almost a year. Since I live in Brescia, Italy, I plan to visit various cities in Europe in combination.. I chose Gdansk first and said I’d go to Norway from here, to Alesund…
Gdansk Overview / Famous “Pencil Houses” of the City
My Plane Could Not Land in Gdansk
Here come the time, I went to Alesund and even got on the plane to Gdansk on the way back!
Oh what a plane ride…
While getting on I knew there was 55 km/h wind in Gdansk but I guessed it would be okay. But we couldn’t land on our first try, it passed, the plane was rocking like a cradle!
I Shared Those Moments We Couldn’t Land in Gdansk on Instagram @gorkemliyollarcom
An airstrip I was on for the first time in my life he had to pass, luckily the pilot managed to land in Gdansk on our second attempt…
It wasn’t a very good start, but I’m welcome Poland
Trying to go to Gdansk Glowny <
Finally Gdansk!
If the plane landed so hard, you should also think below, it’s as if I don’t come from the Norwegian fjords but went there, it’s so cold, wind, rain all together…
Since I got off at 10 pm anyway, I’m in trouble to go to my hostel and sleep You can actually reach the center directly from Gdansk Walesa airport by bus. But the buses after 11 o’clock leave at a different station called Wrzeszcz, and from there you reach the central Gdansk Glowny train station by commuter train.
That’s exactly how I got to the city and my hostel, but thanks to the Polish, who helped me while I was waiting for the bus. Thanks to a college couple…
Hello Gdansk / My First View in the City / Going to a Hostel
About Gdansk
Good morning from Gdanks!
This is Poland’ A city located on the Baltic Sea in the north of. Actually I visited all the Baltic countries and I loved it very much, but they said to Gdansk that this is Poland, you are not exactly Baltic
I mean this is Poland but Gdansk I think It’s even more beautiful than Poland…
Morning Hours / Walking By Motlawa
I’ve visited the capital Warsaw before, but now Gdansk is getting me pretty excited, let’s see what we’ll see…
Since my hostel is located at the northern end of the city, I also start walking from the riverside towards the center.
Yes, Gdansk is a typical Baltic city… I say that this city also has islands, rivers and plenty of water
strong>
Too Much Wind, But Not Without a Selfie
The Spirit of Gdansk: Motlawa River
Our River is Motlawa!
If I follow the Motlawa river, Gdansk’ It means I can almost completely tour the city. Because the city consists of this city and the small islands it surrounds.
First of all, when I come across a beautiful Gdansk text, she says OK. um I’m in the right place…
I Love Those City Names You Must See Me To Understand The Wind…
The Famous Cute Pencil Houses of Gdansk
The first thing I want to tell you in Gdansk is actually Houses that make up the unique architecture of this city.
In fact, although you can see similar ones in other cities of Germany and Poland in general, the ones here are more characteristic.. Thin and long, crooked, colorful houses like pencils!
Famous Pencil Houses of Gdansk / I Found This Name If I Found It In The Sun From The Tip, A Selfie Immediately…
And to the bottom aren’t they built?
Sweetly narrowing the top floors…
I admit that I saw the aerial view of these house-filled streets and fell in love with Gdansk and I thought I should see it. . Yes, maybe I won’t be able to see it from the air, but I’ll still see it.
“The top floors, which narrow down sweetly…”
There Could Be A Modern Building Without Destroying The City!
But here it is one thing to visit and see another photo of it.. The photos did not have modern siblings of these typical Gdansk houses either!
Yes, as a civil engineer, I noticed the modern buildings in Gdansk from the very first minute. Because the modern structures here are “we are modern” They don’t smirk They went and built with a nice modern interpretation of architecture similar to their old brothers.
I can’t say I’m not impressed with this work, Gdansk can still be visited after 50 years…
Modern Gdansk Houses I Like Very Much, There Are Some More Futuristic As Well… These Also Provided a Nice Transition / Modern-Old
Is Crane One Of The Attractions In Gdansk?
Now by the riverside While walking on the promenade called “Deptak Nadwodny”, I see one of the first things that come to mind when I think of places to visit in Gdansk.
What is that Crane?
Interesting place in Gdansk Crane The River And The Crane Look Better Here
Yes “Crane” is one of the interesting structures in Gdansk. This used to be a crane building used to load ships. If I said old, of course.. century is quite old The original state is destroyed, but the current one is worth seeing.
There is the Black Pearl of the pirates of the caribbean a little further ahead, there are nice photos, try it here…
Black Pearl is also here <
Like the Harry Potter Scene: Mariacka Street!
I’m diving down the river into Mariacka Street now
Mariacka at first sight became my favorite place in this city!
I feel like I’m on the street where I’m going to choose a wand for Hogwarts. “Hagrid, where do we get the wand?”
Can it be without a photo Mariacka Street
In Gdansk, you can feel an interestingly slightly British air; mysterious buildings painted in a depressing style, staircases in front of houses small courtyards and magnificent artistic details…
These small courtyard houses on Mariacka Street are boutique shops! Local products, gifts or jewellery, whatever you are looking for. All meticulously furnished with excellent details, this place can be studied for a few hours.
Magnets Here from the Map Detailed Shops in Mariacka Are So Sweet
Across the river side of the street, the huge St.. Mary’s Church…
Undoubtedly, it is one of the most magnificent buildings in the city, you can go inside and have a look at it.. Mary’s Church Is Also Visible
The Rain Follows Me
Just at that moment I’m being caught in the rain!
If it rains, I have a solution; raincoat and my umbrella…
Now it’s time where the heart of Gdansk beats; Long Sunday!
Long Sunday With Shaking Rain
Long Sunday
Long Sunday ie Długi Targ is a classic Polish style market-square. I don’t know why these guys built such thin and long squares, but it happened
As the name suggests, this is a long market area. If I said market, it means small peddlers and generally the shops lined up along the square, better if I say square…
Long Market / Długi Targ
You can see the most beautiful of the typical cute pencil houses of Gdansk that I mentioned in the Long Market.. The ones here are a little more historical and have wonderful decorations.
Also, I think the most eye-catching structure of the square is Gdansk Town Hall.
Gdansk Town Hall with its golden inlaid tower and legendary beauty. The clock may be the most magnificent structure in this city!
The Long Market and the Magnificent Gdansk Town Hall
Gdansk, the City of Gates
My market is at one end of the street, the Golden Gate is at the riverside end there is also the Green Door…
I forgot to mention; Gdansk is the city of gates
You can often see these gates in the old city centre.. It is generally built like 2-3 storey private buildings and has arch-shaped openings from the inside and you enter and exit the square and the street from there.. Especially the Golden Gate is another beautiful one, don’t miss it…
I’ll be visiting soon The Golden Gate / The surprise is gone! The Sun Is Clearly Opening The Gates of Gdansk: This Green Gate by the River
Is it a Rainbow?
And these gates are rain shields for me! Because I’m stuck at the door leading to the river from Long Market, it’s raining heavily
But a few minutes later, “the sun?”
If there’s rain and sun, let the rainbow come !
My Rain Shield Behind the Green Door I Watch Gdansk with Rain and Sun; Delicious!
Things suddenly turn upside down in Gdansk, it’s sunny now
The weather in the city has really changed with the sun and rainbow. Those depressing houses have turned into bright spring colors, now It’s time to wander the streets and take photos a lot.
The Rainbow Has Arrived Can I Pass Such An Unforgettable Moment Without A Photograph? This Is The Back Side
Gdansk’s Islands
I set foot on one of Gdansk’s islands from the Green Bridge in front of the Green Gate. I say island, but it is a part of the city I say so only because rivers run on both sides.
This is also a very touristic area, but it is under construction for now, that catches my attention the most. lots of mobile sweet sellers I see around. Poland’s sugary pastry desserts are in vain, definitely try it!
