Brussels Step by Step
With an area of 30,528 km², Belgium, officially the Kingdom of Belgium, has a population of approximately 11 million people.
Belgium, due to its location, forms a border between the Germanic and Latin worlds r. We can say that it is a multi-national and multilingual country.. The Dutch speak Dutch, the Walloons speak French and the Germans German.
Belgium, which has a federal state structure, is mainly the Flemish region where Dutch is the official language, and French is the language of the French. consists of the Walloon region, where it is the official language, and the capital region of Brussels, where both languages are considered official. Although the part where the Germans live is located in the Walloon region, it is a part that has autonomy in some areas.. This linguistic diversity has been causing a number of problems in the political and cultural field for years.. We start our tour from Brussels.
We came to the city center by taking the metro from the airport.. A Turkish lady named Suzan, whom we met in the subway, helped us a lot.. He has lived in Brussels for 14 years.. Originally from Gaziantep. He came here for college education and then he didn’t come back.. During our journey in the subway, he marks the places to visit on the map.
We came to the city center.. It’s around 23:00 at night and it’s pretty crowded.. At the metro exit, we take a taxi and give the address of the hotel.. But he says it’s very close and we can go on foot. It describes us which way to walk.
We start walking… There is a group of people in front of a pizzeria.. While we are chatting with my friend, a member of the group welcomes us.. Dhaka 1 goal 2. We just set foot. We are in Belgium and we are dealing with 2. Turkish. even 2. not because this group is all Turkish. One of them is running this pizzeria here, another is in the textile business, the other is in the cleaning company… Where did we come from…
Where to Stay in Brussels
Take a taxi from here, in a central place, on a side street. We arrived at the Hotel Colombier, located in. A small but clean hotel. After settling in, we go to bed immediately to get up early in the morning.. The walls opposite the hotel are full of graffiti.. The Marriott Hotel is located right on the corner of the street where we are staying.
The hotel prices in Brussels are a bit high.. A few suggestions can be given among these hotels.. Located close to the city center and transport networks, Dansaert Hotel is also 400 meters from Brussels City Museum and King’s House. A nice hotel that you can choose in terms of price and facilities. Besides, if you want to make accommodation cheap, Sunrise Apart Hote l located close to Rue Neuve shopping street can be an economical choice.. Alternatively, you can choose the Hotel Belvedere’, which is an economical hotel very close to the Basilica of Brussels.
As for hotel suggestions in Brussels, 5 minutes to Manneken Pis Statue, Magritte Museum and Brussels Park, You can consider Aris Grand Place Hotel, which is a 10-minute walk from Belvue Museum. As an alternative to this hotel, La Madeleine Grand Plac hotel, located in the city center and close to many transportation networks, can be preferred.. If you have a limited budget for accommodation in Brussels, located 500 meters from the Grote Markt, with the Rue Neuve shopping street and the Belgian Comic Art Center You might also consider Hotel Best Western, which is 5 minutes’ walk from strong>i. For other hotels in Brussels, you can browse here on booking.com and make reservations.
There are Novotel and Ibis hotels next to the main metro center.. A very central point to stay. From here we go back to Manneken Pis and enter the cafe opposite.. His name is Poechenellekelder. The interior decoration is very different and there are many kinds of beer.. Especially their fruit flavored beers are very delicious.
While walking towards the Grand Plaza, we saw many chocolate shops and shops selling embroidered lace on the road.. I don’t think I need to tell you how the smells coming from these chocolate shops attract people before you even have breakfast in the morning, and that we start the day by eating chocolate. The air temperature, which is 8 degrees in the morning in May, rises to 16-17 degrees during the day.
The Landmarks, Sculptures and Squares of the City
At the entrance to the main square Dantello Lace shop you can get a wide variety of lace work. The cafe named Le Roy in the Main Square is quite famous. It was very difficult to find a place here in the evening hours. The Main Square is rectangular with florists in the middle. First we started walking from the Main Square towards the Peeing Child Statue. But on the way, of course, we stopped at a waffle shop and fulfilled our missing sweet needs.
While thinking that the Manneken Pis) Statue, which has become the symbol of the city, is a magnificent structure, Frankly, I was a little disappointed when I came across a tiny statue in the neighborhood.. They dress this statue in costumes on important days.. These costumes included everything from the Elvis Presley costume to the Nelson Mandela outfit.. Are the clothes dressed in this statue exhibited in the city museum?. The statue was naked when we saw it.
You can buy different chocolates from the chocolatier named Leonidas next to the Peeing Child statue.. In particular, they made a chocolate fountain from the peeing place of the model in the form of a giant peeing child.. Other interesting chocolates were transparent colored chocolates.
Since our time is a bit limited in Brussels, we decided to make a preliminary exploration in the city with city tour buses.. The first point is the church that looks like Notre Dame in Paris, which was restored by the royal family. This church was built in the 16th century and there is a large garden in front of it.
Then we come to the stairs that have become the meeting point called Bourse.. Young people meet here in the evening, drink beer and socialize.. It is also a venue that hosts many rallies.. While we are walking on the roads, we are passing through beautiful buildings.
Then we are moving towards the Royal Palace. Although this place was built in the 13th century, it was restored in 1695 when it was bombed by France.. It is still in use and has a very nice garden.. Currently, part of it is used as a city museum.. The museum is open from 10:00 to 17:00 every day except Mondays.. The entrance fee for this museum is about 2.5 Euros.
The most colorful things to see in this museum are Manneken Pis’ costumes. Another important point is the model of the city of Brussels.. But the surprising thing is that this model has a river in the city.. However, there is no river in the city… Because in the 19th century, they filled the river on the grounds that it smelled bad.. Of course, they didn’t change the model because it was made in the old days.
Then we reach the Margitte Museum’. After all, this is a part of the royal palace.. Opened on June 2, 2009 in memory of Belgian surrealist artist Rene Magritte(1898-1967). Entrance fee 8 Euros. However, if you buy a joint ticket with the Fine Arts Museum in this region, you pay a total of 13 Euros to enter both museums.. In the fine arts museum, the 15th-18th century, mainly belonging to the south of the Netherlands,. There are works created between the 19th century and works by Belgian artists.
We come to the 175-meter-long Palace of Justice from here.. This palace, which was under renovation at the time we went, is located at the highest point of the city.. Right next to 1. and 2. There is also a monument built to commemorate World War II.
Then we see the European Parliament building. There is also a bridge that connects the two buildings and symbolizes peace.. Consulates are located on this street.. Belgium is one of the first countries to join the European Union.
There is a large monument and a park built by the king to celebrate Belgium’s independence in 1880.. They named the park Cinquantenaire Park. It is also possible to see the military museum and the art museum in this area.
Then we come to the Schuman Building’, a gift from the European Commission to Belgium.. This building is named after French Foreign Minister Robert Schuman. The reason is that the foundations of the European Union are originally based on the European Coal and Steel Community.. That is to say, on May 9, 1950, French Foreign Minister Robert Schuman proposes a plan to establish a single body to supervise steel and coal production in West Germany and France, and to keep this partnership open to the membership of other European countries and the cooperation of the United Nations.. Robert Schuman is a person who founded the European Coal and Steel Community and made an effort to establish the “United States of Europe”.. Robert Schuman’s proposal is considered by the French government as “a serious step towards the unification of Europe” and the Schuman Plan is accepted at the Paris conference attended by the Foreign Ministers of West Germany, France, Belgium, Netherlands, Luxembourg and Italy.. This treaty is the first foundation of the European Union.
The monument that we come across on the continuation of this road was built in 1830 (Colombos monument). The first king was symbolized on it.. The statues at the bottom represent religious, physical and spiritual freedom. From here, we pass through the area where the shopping centers are located and proceed towards Chinatown.
Atomium
From there we come to Atomium, which has become one of the symbols of Brussels. This place looks like a spaceship. The WELCOME model at the entrance of Atomium’ was just being built when we went.. Above each letter, they summarized the developing history of Belgium since 1830.. The entrance fee was 11 Euros when we went.
It has become one of the symbols of Brussels.. It has a large share in international tourism. It hosts many fairs and organizations. After the renovation in 2006, 5 of the 9 spheres were opened to the public.. The spheres are connected to each other by 20 pipes and ladders inside.. The shortest link has 87 digits and the longest link has 164 digits.. Made in 1958 5. The World’s Fair Expo 58 was held in Brussels. 50 of this fair. They built this building to commemorate the fair.. During the construction of the building, 15,000 workers worked for 3 years.. This structure represents the future and universality.. This place looks like a superspace.
At the top of the Atomium, there is a small but stylish restaurant and the view of the city is excellent from here.. Provides a view as far as Antwerp when weather permits. From the top of this building we see Mini Europe.
Mini Europe
A tiny Europe consisting of scaled-down models of 27 countries affiliated to the European Union is really. But they have done everything so meticulously that everything has been thought of, from the trains running on the rails, the bells ringing in the churches, the bustling bulls in the bullring, the gondoliers in Venice to the dolphins jumping next to the boats.. When you come in front of each country, the national anthem of that country is played when you press the button in front of it.. While wandering around here with my friend, we are trying to choose the country we will go to next.. You should definitely visit here.
The use of bicycles is quite common here too, but of course it cannot be compared to the Netherlands.
A street reminiscent of our Nevizade for dinner. we enter. We live in Chez Leon on this pleasant street. This is one of the oldest restaurants in Belgium. The food is delicious. There’s a shop called Beer Planet at the end of the street. There are beers with 13-14% alcohol content here.. The most preferred beer brands are Westvleteren, Orval, Kwak, Delirium Tremens and Westmalle.

Ouzo’s Birthplace Plomari, Mytilene
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.

Nepal Arrival
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”.

Gdansk Travel Notes: Better Than Poland!
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

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

Too Much Wind, But Not Without a Selfie
The Spirit of Gdansk: Motlawa River
Our River is Motlawa!

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!

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

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.

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

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!

Time to enjoy sunny Gdansk. I pass the Golden Gate at the upper end of the Long Market and open to the modern part of the city.
There is a triumphal arch-like gate and another historical building behind the Golden Gate.. You have now reached the wide streets of Gdansk here.
Gdansk Became Another Beautiful When The Sun Comes Out The Golden Gate I Just Mentioned Gdansk Houses Also Shine Differently!
A Little Out of the City, The Environment Is Different
There is a huge modern shopping mall right across the street. It is also possible to see socialist-style buildings when you go to a little bit further in the city. Gdansk dates back to different historical periods. It is a city that has witnessed it too.
I am now finishing my sightseeing in Gdansk.. You might think that this city is an atmospheric place anyway, and all its streets and avenues are special in general, so I say go everywhere
