Where is the Phrygian Valley?

The Phrygian Valley covers the whole of Ankara, Afyonkarahisar, Eskişehir and most of Kütahya and the geographical regions to the north of Konya, Isparta and Burdur.. Phrygia was the ancient name of this area in ancient times.. The region got its name from the Phrygians, who founded a civilization on this vast land.. They lived here in the 7th century BC. The region where they are most effective is known as the intersection point of Afyonkarahisar, Eskişehir and Kütahya provinces.

The Phrygian Way is Turkey’s third largest hiking trail. Recently, I think the most popular trekking route after the Lycian road is the Phrygian road.. When I can’t think of walking the Lycian Way, I want to walk the Phrygian Way. There are many trekking groups that go to walk the Phrygian Path. I’m going with my Kamptrek Erol Geygel teacher.

Don’t forget to follow me on my social media accounts Instagram:

Phrygian Valley is its original name. Someone from the region sent a message on Instagram and got angry with me.. “Why do you write Phrygian Valley, its name is Phrygian Valley”. I am not a historian. Everyone says Phrygian Valley. Well me too. I can update the article if anyone who has knowledge about this subject writes in the comments.

How to Go to the Phrygian Valley?

The Phrygian Valley passes through 7 provinces and countless counties. How you will go to the Phrygian Valley is also taking shape as to where you will start your trek.. The Phrygian Road, which you can start from three different points, converges at Yazılıkaya Midas Ancient City. We will start the walk from Sarıcaova- Gökbahçe track.. For this, we are moving from Istanbul to Eskişehir.. The trekking group collects the participants from the stops determined by the vehicle.. We reach Seyitgazi via Eskişehir 400 km and 5 hours after our night journey. Now it’s morning and it’s time for breakfast.. Some of us sit in a cafe and eat what they brought with us, some of us eat what they bought from there.. It’s time to visit Seyitgazi.

Seyitgazi is a small town 43 km from Eskişehir.. There is no one who does not know Battal Gazi. The tomb of Battal Gazi, whose city fell during the struggle against the Byzantine Empire during the spread of Islam in Anatolia, is located here.. It is inside a huge complex from the hill of Seyitgazi district. Two epics were written in his name.. Evliya Çelebi has included it in his famous book.. The mausoleum part opens at 9 am. It was not yet 9 when we went and we couldn’t wait as we were going to go for a walk.

Which Season to Go to the Phrygian Valley?

Those who walk the Phrygian Way due to its location prefer spring or autumn. It is very hot in summer and in winter months. I think it would not be very pleasant to walk in the snow and cold.. I went in April too.. The most enjoyable times for both camping and hiking…

The recommended time to visit Yazılıkaya is sunrise time. Because the rock faces east, the rays of the rising sun hit the rock and turn red.. It turns yellow as the day progresses and sinks into the night.. Since I went to walk the Phrygian Valley and we were crowded, I couldn’t experience it, but why wouldn’t you?

How Many Km is the Phrygian Way?

Phrygian Valley, where you can see original works of Seljuk and Byzantine civilizations, also Phrygian Valley’ It is a wonderful hiking trail where you can feel the unusual texture and relaxing atmosphere of the city. The Phrygian Way passes through the region between the provinces of Ankara, Afyonkarahisar, Eskişehir and Kütahya, where the Phrygians rule, and converges in Yazılıkaya.. Phrygian Road, which you can start from three different points, ends at Yazılıkaya Midas Ancient City.

Phrygian Valley is a walking and cycling path created for visitors who want to visit the region today.. The road is very long and difficult.. The total length of the Phrygian Way is 506 km. This road is marked with red and white colors in international standards, that is, it is mapped. There are informative signs at the start and end points of the route, and direction signs at important intersections.. If you pay attention to these signs, you will not get lost.

You do not have to walk this whole road at once.. You can walk piecemeal like we did. If you want to walk all at once, you will need good condition and plenty of time.. Walking the entire Phrygian Path would only take 15-20 days. If you walk well, of course.

Sarıcaova-Gökbahçe Track

From Sarıcaova around 9 in the morning we start the walk. Before we walk through flat meadows. We see Phrygian Way signs and occasional red and white signs painted on stones.. These are so that we don’t get lost on the hiking trail.. Our guide, Erol, sets the pace of the group.. I’m at the end again. I come to the flower, the insect with pleasure, to smell the newly bloomed flowers, to take pictures.. Of course, my boots hurt my feet a little.. At first we pass through flat grassy areas. We are walking by the edge of Emre Lake.

Then we dive into the trees. we’re getting off. We take a break by the creek. A dog, an integral part of trekking, comes out of nowhere at the break point.. we feed it. We are climbing the historical artifact that we come across on our way.. We are walking 13 km, playing roses.. The walk ends in Gökbahçe. After a short break in the village square, we start looking for a camping area.. Looking here or there, we find a meadow among the trees.. It’s a really nice campground.

Phrygian Valley Camping

Camp anywhere in the Phrygian Valley without disturbing the villages and the environment you can throw. My tent is one of the easy ones. My favorite thing is to set up the tent in a minute and then watch the preparations of the others.. Still no different. For example, someone came with a big wheeled suitcase.. A huge blanket comes out of it.. I don’t write these to belittle. When everyone first starts, the camping equipment is not complete.. may not know. We’re joking about it right now. Whoever brought these is already aware of it, but at that moment he was there.. He took them and came.

Then I go to sleep in the tent, feeling tired as the road has come all night and then we went for a walk.. When I wake up at 9 o’clock, I find a group of people who had a huge fire, had eaten, and everyone was enjoying themselves.. We are preparing something with my friend right on the fire. The music playing makes the earth and sky moan. At some point the fire touches the sky. Well we didn’t burn the forest. It is forbidden to drink alcohol in such sportive activities, but since this is a more relaxed walk, it is not prohibited.. Of course, the effect is different for everyone.. Since they start the fun early, they sleep early and my favorite thing is left to me.. What is that? Of course it’s just the crackle of the fire, a starry sky and the warmth of the fire. It’s like therapy for me.

After waking up in the morning and having breakfast, the group splits into two. Those who do not want to walk and those who will. I will not be able to walk because the day before the boots injured my foot.. I can’t take a step. I put the sandals on my feet. I’m wandering like that. The group that will walk will walk 17 km from Gökbahçe to Yazılıkaya.. 4 km of this 17 km is the ancient section where Yazılıkaya is located.. If we had walked, we would have reached the village of Playas by following the paths.. We were going to reach Gökçegüney by crossing the 1300-meter pass by passing through cultivated lands, wide plains and streams.. The other group will cross this slightly mountainous road and finish in Yazılıkaya.

We are going to Yazılıkaya by car.. On our way, we stop by the Yapildak Asar Castle. Since it is spring as of the season, agricultural areas have been planted and those crops display lush landscapes.. nature is waking up. A flower, an insect, one wonders what to like.

Phrygian Valley Yazılıkaya

Yazılıkaya is located in Yazılıkaya village of Han district in Eskişehir.. Midas Yazılıkaya, which is estimated to have been built in the 7th-8th centuries BC, was the religious center of the Phrygians.. The architecture of Yazılıkaya is so impressive that people cannot take their eyes off it.. Since one of the inscriptions on this rock resembles the inscription “MIDAS”, the city is also called the City of Midas.

The monument carved on a volcanic rock is 17 meters high and 16.5 meters wide. The processed surface of the monument, which consists of three inscriptions, measures 280 square meters.. I can see the monument from afar as I walk through the village. I can say it’s really exciting. You do not pay any fee to enter Yazılıkaya.. We pass through an iron gate. It was closed in the evenings.

The Midas Monument greets you as soon as you enter in all its glory.. Taking pictures is not easy.. It does not fit in the frame of my current camera, it overflows.. I’m trying to read the articles. I call it “Daddy”. The monument is starting to wear out now.. Not easy. It has been standing for nearly 3,000 centuries.. Who knows what disasters he has been through.. It says at the entrance that it is under restoration, but there is no work.

Then we start walking around the ancient city of 4km.. Everyone is going from the right, we are from the road to the left.. I think we did it right. Those on the right had to climb the narrow, steep stairs inside the ancient city.. We just went down those stairs. There is another unfinished Yazılıkaya inside the Ancient City.. People think what happened?. We spend more time in the ancient city, which we can normally walk around in 1 hour.. I think it’s very beautiful. When we leave, my friends who go for a morning walk are coming.. We pass through the village and pass to the Hıçın Evi, where we can drink tea and eat something.

What’s Written in Yazılıkaya?

Phrygian Valley photos

strong>When it comes to our eyes, it comes to Yazılıkaya as the most important work.. Until today, no one has been able to decipher what Yazılıkaya has written on it. It is mentioned that when it is solved, many historical information will be rewritten.

When I look at the top of the rock, I can see the easily readable “BABA” and “ATES” writings.. These are written in the Latin alphabet we use.. The continuation continues similar to the Greek alphabet. Something important enough to be engraved on such a volcanic stone, but no one can read it.. What happens to a person when he does not crack with curiosity?. Midas Monument, Yazılıkaya, has been hiding all its mystery for almost 3 thousand years. Maybe someone can solve it one day.. Old

The Legend of Eskişehir Yazılıkaya

The most legendary king of the Phrygians was Midas. Born with asymmetry in the ears, which is seen in very few people. When viewed from a distance, one of the ears is below and the other is above.. King Midas was also very ashamed of this, so he always wore something on his head.. People used to make fun of him for having donkey ears because they never saw his ears.. You know the saying “Midas has donkey ears”. Of course, these legends are not told like this.. It is said that he was punished by Apollo and his ears were turned into donkey ears.. He turned everything he touched to gold.. These are all legends. Maybe such things were happening at that time.. Who knows?

Phrygian Valley Nature Park

Phrygian Valley Nature Park is located in Akdere, Bayramaliler Village İhsaniye/Afyonkarahisar address. Free entry. The 55-hectare Phrygian Valley Nature Park is open 7 days a week.

Phrygian Valley

Other Phrygian artifacts and names that you can see in the Phrygian Valley are listed as follows:

Yazılıkaya Midas Monument In addition to , Aslantaş, Yılantaş and Maltaş located in the Köhnuş Valley within the borders of Afyonkarahisar; Aslankaya, Burmeç Monument, Büyük and Küçük Kapıkaya near Döger are important Phrygian monuments.. Apart from these, there are many Phrygian artifacts around Ayazini, Kümbet, Yazılıkaya and İnli.. After the Phrygians, the region came under Roman, Byzantine, Seljuk and Ottoman rule and some of the artifacts belonging to these periods have survived to the present day.. In the village of Kümbet, there is the Tomb of Solon and the Seljuk work Himmet Baba Cupola, which gave the village its name.. Seyyid Battal Gazi Kulliye in Seyitgazi (Nakoleia), which was mentioned in the Byzantine period, and also in the village of Ayazini, besides Phrygian artifacts, there are artifacts from the Byzantine and Roman periods.

Phrygian Valley Wheel Tracks and Afyon Phrygian Valley pallet tracks are also very popular… Among the most photographed and most visited ones. It is not possible for me to walk and tour all of them at once.. When we turn back to our little house, I know that I will come here again and trace history.

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. 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!

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!

“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.

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.

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
