Gdynia is a modern port that acts as a welcome gateway to Gdańsk, a larger city known for its rich Hanseatic history. Once in Gdańsk, wander Dlugi Targ, or The Royal Way, a historic district lined with Gothic merchant houses and cathedrals. The Golden Gate, Main Town Hall, and Neptune Fountain are popular landmarks and ideal photo backdrops. Save some time for dining and shopping — Gdańsk is known for pierogies, fresh-from-the-Baltic seafood, and amber jewelry.
