I often receive messages that my articles under the title of “Living abroad” are very helpful to those who decide to move to Germany, and I am also happy that I have not come across a friend who hasn’t come across my blog yet, as I am on the way to abroad. I come across you somehow, so I will continue to share what I have learned and experienced so that they will continue to make your job easier. Our topic today will be on how to get a driver’s license in Germany.

What to do after moving to Germany First Days Abroad I explained in my article. One of the next most important and priority jobs is to get a driver’s license in Germany. In this article, I will give information about the conditions for using a Turkish driver’s license in Germany, tell you how you can do it in case you want to get a driver’s license in Germany, and I will talk about possible exam questions.. Since the person who got the license is my wife, this time she wrote the article, we are listening to it from her pen

Let’s start with the first question that comes to mind before we move on to the question of how to get a driver’s license in Germany.

Turkish Is his license valid in Germany?

Both yes and no. You are allowed to drive with your Turkish license for 6 months after arriving in Germany. Turkish driver’s licenses lose their validity in Germany 6 months after receiving a residence permit, regardless of whether the new Turkish driver’s license is valid in Germany or not.

To get a driver’s license in Germany, you first have your Turkish driver’s license checked. The photo is from uk.reuters.com

If you are caught, neither your Turkish driver’s license nor your master driver can save you and you will be treated as driving without a license.. In other words, you may encounter problems such as confiscation of your Turkish driver’s license, being fined, not being able to apply for a driver’s license for a long time and even receiving psychological treatment.

For this reason, your first 6 months It would be wisest to change your Turkish driver’s license to a German driver’s license after it expires.

Converting a Turkish Driver’s License to a German Driver

As I just mentioned, your old or new Turkish driver’s license is not valid in Germany and convert a Turkish driver’s license to a German one within six months of settling in Germany

  • 28/12/2017 – I submitted the documents and submitted my application
  • 18/01/2017 – My license application was approved
  • 19/01/2017 I got my Turkish driver’s license back
  • 23/04/2017 – I took and passed the theoretical exam
  • 16/05/2018 – I went for a test drive (one test drive was enough for me)
  • 18/05/2018 – I took and passed the practice exam
  • 18/05/2018 – I got my driver’s license
  • In this case, it is not for me to get a driver’s license in Germany After the first day I enrolled in the course, it took a total of 5 months and 4 days.

    Driver’s License Fee in Germany

    How much is the driver’s license fee in Germany? >Online training application – 50,00 Euro

  • First aid course – 30,00 Euro
  • Eye test – 6,43 Euro
  • Translation of Turkish driver’s license – 20 0,00 Euro
  • Photo – 10,00 Euro
  • Driver’s license application fee – 42,60 Euro

  • 90 minute trial drive – 100,00 Euro
  • Practice exam appointment – ​​180,00 Euro
  • Practice exam fee – 91,75 Euro

  • Driver’s License Course in Germany

    How long it will take to get your driver’s license in Germany and how much it will cost in total will differ depending on the course you are enrolled in and the city you are applying to.

    I’m in Munich, in case it’s helpful Why do you want to search for a Turkish driver’s license course in and write there? I was tempted, but I chose the course called “Manufaktur Fahrschule”, which I was very pleased with, because of the intensity of the course (they could make an appointment for the practical test drive 4-5 months later due to excessive demand) and the higher prices.

    Is German a Requirement to Get a Driving License in Germany?

    Germany The answer to the question of whether German knowledge is required to get a driver’s license in Turkey is both yes and no. If you want to renew your driver’s license, the only advantage of enrolling in a Turkish course will be to speak Turkish during registration and driving lessons.. Because the online material you receive for exam preparation can already be used in the language you want, and there is no need to enroll in a Turkish course to study from Turkish sources.. You can take the theoretical exam in any language you want through the same application.

    If you are going to get a driver’s license from scratch, you need to learn the theoretical-practical knowledge from the beginning and you do not have enough German/English knowledge, then It would be beneficial for you to attend a Turkish course.. But for license exchange, you can enroll in any course as long as your English and/or German is at intermediate/advanced level.. However, in the practical exam, the examiner gives commands such as turn right, turn left in German.. It may be helpful to ask this again while enrolling in the course.. Maybe there are examiners who also do that part in English, and your appointment will be made accordingly.

    As I said, I don’t see much advantage of the Turkish course in terms of price/timing, both the prices are very high. I can wholeheartedly recommend www.fahrschulmanufaktur.de to those living in Munich in terms of being more convenient and saving time.. In fact, if you say you got your contact information from Mustafa/hayatveseyahat, they will give you a discount.

    Choosing a driving license course in Germany is very important.. Audi Q3 is the vehicle where we took the driving lessons and took the exam

    What to do to get a driver’s license in Germany

  • Participating in a first aid course
  • Taking an eye test
  • Taking a photo (1 biometric)

When you enter the building, direct 3. You go up to the floor and make an appointment from the bank to apply for a driver’s license change.. I went at 10 in the morning and was able to make an appointment for 13:30 in the afternoon.. If you are going to apply from other cities in Germany, you need to find out where Fahrerlaubnisbehör (or a similarly named institution) is.

    When it’s your turn, you go to the room indicated on the screen.. Before you go, you can make photocopies of all the documents you have prepared and give them photocopies.. So you can keep some of the originals (eye test and first aid certificate). They check the original with a photocopy and return the original to you.

    Be careful: They ask if you want to take the practice exam in an automatic or manual transmission car.. If you prefer automatic transmission, your license is valid only for driving cars with automatic transmission.

    Driver’s license exam questions in Germany help the user to be more environmentally friendly. It contains many rules and information encouraging.

    Other than that, they ask you if you have any health problems and have you sign a few papers.. At the end you are given a 42.60 Euro payment slip.. You pay with cash or EC card (not a credit card, but a kind of debit card used by the Germans) at the vending machines on the ground floor.. Then you go to the same room again without taking your turn.

    Intelligence of your Turkish driver’s license and approval of your application for change is 2 – They explain it will take 6 weeks. They keep your Turkish driver’s license and they give you a temporary document that they have your driver’s license.. This document does not replace a driver’s license.. If you need your Turkish driver’s license in Turkey or in other countries, you can go back and get your Turkish driver’s license back after your application is approved.. When you come to get your new German driver’s license when all the procedures are finished, they will ask you to bring your Turkish driver’s license with you again.. But they will not take it from you again, they will just stick a small paper on the back showing that you also have a German driver’s license.

    Driver’s License Exam Questions in Germany

    Examination of the documents and your application After approval, they notify you of the course you are enrolled in and the course calls you and says that your application has been approved and you can make an appointment for the written exam at any time.. How long it takes to prepare and take the written exam is entirely up to your learning and study performance.. You can work hard and complete it in a month, or you can take it slow like me and be ready for the exam in 3 months.

    When you sign up for the course, they give you a username and password for the fahrenlernenmax.de portal.. You are preparing for the theoretical exam from this portal and/or its mobile application.

    Preparation for approximately 1100 theoretical exams and 100 practical exams on the education portal

    The portal is basically a question bank.. A document containing simulations of traffic signs, traffic rules and possibilities you may encounter.. About 1200 questions are waiting for you to be solved over and over again

    In some of the exercises, you are also asked how you should behave by watching the videos.. You have to watch the videos carefully and you can watch them up to 5 times.. In videos, you need to pay attention to mirrors, your speed, other vehicles in the traffic and signs.

    Some of the driving license exam questions in Germany have videos and these questions it is necessary to watch it carefully until the end.

    When you finish all the course questions (the aforementioned thousand-odd questions), the program makes the practice exams accessible and you start to try yourself with real exam questions.. You work by constantly solving the practice exams until you get them completely right, and the exam questions consist of questions you have already learned in these practice exams.

    Driver’s license exam questions in Germany

    I said it’s not too hard. There are 30 questions in the exam and each question has a point value.. Some questions are like 5 points, some are like 2 points.. You have the right to make mistakes up to 10 points in total, but if you do two 5-point questions wrong, you will be left behind!

    If you solve enough tests, you will memorize almost all of them after a while.. Because the same questions are asked all the time.. When you complete 3 practice exams in a row with zero errors, then the program tells you that you are ready for the exam.

You go and request an appointment for the theoretical exam, or you must make an appointment beforehand and be ready by that date.. On the day of the exam, you go to the address given to you (Rüdesheimer Strasse 7 for Munich) and wait for your exam time.. When the time comes, you pay the exam fee of 22.49 Euros to the cashier and they give you a receipt in return.. Then you go to the next room where the exam will be held, and they check your name and payment from the list.. They ask in which language you want to take the exam.. You choose the language you want and sit on the seat number you are told.

    There is a tablet in front of you where you sit.. Welcome “Your Name” on the tablet screen. They say start after explanations about how to use the application and how to end and submit the exam.. Since the exam application is exactly the same as the Fahrennen application, they do not tell you anything you do not know, do not worry.. It takes 20 – 30 minutes to complete the exam.

    When you complete the exam, you send it for approval on the tablet.. They also check the system and send you your results.. You know right there whether you passed or not.. Then you go and get your signed pass from the supervisor, and good luck, you passed the first step.

    I’ve solved as many practice exams as I don’t know for sure. and I took the full test in the real exam

    After passing the exam, you go back to your driver’s license course and say you passed the exam.. This time, your practice exam preparation process begins and you make an appointment for a test drive.. They say that you are ready for the exam and you can make an appointment for the exam after you have done a test drive as your instructor deems sufficient.

    Steering Exam in Germany

    When the exam day comes, you go to TUV with the vehicle you test drive and your teacher and get the officer who will do the exam.. Before the exam starts, the attendant checks your credentials and asks a few questions about the car.. As I mentioned before, inform your course about your English/German level so that you do not have language problems in the exam, because unfortunately there is no Turkish option for the practical exam.

    Questions in the Driving Exam in Germany Questions

    • What should be the minimum profile depth on tires? Answer: 1.6mm
    • Where is the vehicle inspection date written? Answer: On the small round sticker on the plate
    • Where do the quads, headlights and fog lights come from?
    • Can you open the hood?
    • Brake fluid, wiper fluid, engine oil and Which radiator fluids?
    • How do you check the engine oil level?

    Your teacher teaches you these in practical lessons, repeat them a few times. it is useful to. In the exam, I was asked where the quads are and how to check the engine oil level by opening the hood.

    After these questions, you set off and the officer both guides you from the back seat and guides you.

    Things to Consider in the Driving Exam in Germany

    • When moving first signaling to the left, checking the blind spot over the mirror and over the shoulder, then setting off.
    • Controlling the blind spot over the shoulder during turns (especially essential not to miss the pedestrians and bicycles).
    • Pedestrian and giving way to cyclists.
    • To comply with the speed limit and not to be stressed, no matter how fast it comes behind you, no matter how fast it presses you (no one is pushing anyway, we think it will be). Permanent damage to the brain is inevitable after years of Istanbul traffic stress ).
    • To show that you control all road junctions by leaning slightly forward when approaching road junctions in areas with 30km speed limit.
    • When parking backwards. or while manoeuvring, turn your head once and look back, and complete the rest with mirrors.
    • To be extremely calm, especially when parking and driving in the 30km zone.

    The exam takes about 45. After performing a parking maneuver, a short drive on the highway, a few intersections in the residential area and crossing the roads with signs to watch out for, a few street tours in the 30km speed limit area, a U-turn and an emergency brake test, the officer asks you to park.. Right there, he hands you your certificate of confirmation that you passed the exam.

    Congratulations, you’ve accomplished the second step.

    Receiving Your New Driver’s License

    Go to the Kreisverwaltungsreferat Fahrerlaubnisbehörde (Eichstätter Strasse 2 for Munich) again with your certificate of approval, passport, Turkish driver’s license and the documents that were given to you during the first application stating that they have your driver’s license.. you are going up to the floor. You tell the officer that you have passed the exam and come to get your driver’s license, after you look at your documents, they give you a number again and you wait for your turn.

    When it’s your turn, you enter the room indicated on the screen, present your documents and get your new driver’s license.. Unfortunately, the driver’s license does not replace your identity card, so you will continue to carry your passport.

    Now you can buy yourself a car and drive with peace of mind, good luck. I can recommend https://www.autoscout24.de to give an idea to those who are wondering about car prices in Germany.. Have a nice ride

    Tips for Those Who Want to Get a Driver’s License in Munich

    • You can get your Turkish driver’s license translated for Munich at the sworn translator on the top floor of İşbank in Hauptbahnhof Goethestrasse.
    • For the first aid course, you can find recent courses, where they are held, in which language and their prices (prices vary according to day/time and language options) at http://www.notfallmedizin.de/. Unfortunately, this training does not have a Turkish option.. They state on their website that the language of instruction is very basic German, but that is not the case.. Minimum B2 – C1 level If you do not know German, I would prefer English education.. The training takes 7.5 hours and there are 10-minute breaks.. It’s a good idea to bring something to eat and drink with you.
    • The eye test is done right there before the first aid course starts.. You look at the shapes on the small monitor and say what you see.

    Ouzo’s Birthplace Plomari, Mytilene

    Published

    on

    By

    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

    Published

    on

    By

    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.

    Gdansk Travel Notes: Better Than Poland!

    Published

    on

    By

    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!

    Here’s the Island for You Just Kidding The River Divides A Wonderful Street I Discovered, Find It “Poland’s Candy Sweets pastry desserts of all kinds”

    “The cafes of this city are very nice”

    I want to have a snack and rest now. Şso that I can have a little view so that I can both fill my stomach and watch the city

    Eat a great boutique pancake shop called “Pan Kejk” on the Long Market I came. There is everything to eat and drink here, and you won’t believe the prices. I got a great sandwich, salad and unlimited coffee for only 15-20 zloty.

    I Need to Have a Rest and Eat Something / “Pakejk” Gdansk

    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
