Gdansk ( Poland)

 After lunch we had a short tour at Gdnask. This is one of Poland's oldest cities and where World War II started and the fall of communism in Central Europe began, also known as the City of Amber. 
 
This long embankment along the Motława River is lined with picturesque brick buildings, apartments, and moored vessels. The embankment is a popular location both day and night for visitors.

 The Golden Gate and the Long Lane



 Situated in the center of the Long Market, the Neptune statue dates to 1549, while the fountain originates from 1633. Hidden away and miraculously surviving World War II intact, the fountain has since become a popular meeting point in the centre of the Main Town.  
Located between the end of the Long Lane and the Green Gate, this impressive square was once home to Gdańsk's elite in previous centuries, and is today a popular meeting point for locals and tourists alike.
