If you plan on going to Łódź, Piotrkowska is the first place you wanna visit. There's a lot of renovations still going on, so I'd suggest holding off if you want a casual experience roaming the streets. Miś uszatek, and the other Łódź Bajkowa (Fairytale Łódź) statues, are great to take pictures with, and they're really charming. There's a lot of statues from the Galeria Wielkich Łodzian (Gallery of The Great People of Łódź) series, along Piotrkowska street, as well. There isn't much extremely noteworthy old architecture or anything to see, but there's a lot of history, as well as many beautiful tenements and small palaces. The Archcathedral Basilica is exceptionally gorgeous. Regards from Łódź.

Omg not "traditional soviet looking buildings". Gdynia city center is mostly prewar modernist architecture, one of the best in Europe. Gdynia is applying to be included on the UNESCO heritage list.

[@Planecrash13]

hello, greetings from Gdynia👋 you may have felt the atmosphere of our city 😉 maybe Gdynia is not the largest and richest (though not poor either) city, it is also not a super tourist place because Gdynia is only 98 years old, so we have no historical architecture here , but it's really nice to live here. I don't even know why, but we have such a nice and relaxed atmosphere. Personally, I like it when the season ends, tourists return home, autumn winds and cooler temperatures begin, I like the harshness of the seaside. Although it probably doesn't suit everyone 😉 cheers OH! OH! funfact: a year ago the regulations changed and the territories of seaside cities also include the coastline and since then Gdynia is the third largest city in Poland 😎😅 and Gdańsk is the largest city in Poland 😅 it's funny, but it's true 😉

[@venusflytrap1724]

Gdynia is one of my favourite places i Poland. Nice reataurants and cafes, beach in the middel of the city, beautiful coastline, great place to do sports. Pączuć and Bar Mleczny Słoneczny are classics!

[@SillyyVampire]

[@nobodynemoq]

Gdynia is my absolutely favourite city. I live in Kraków and love it, but Gdynia is a "must see" for every summer and winter, even if it's only for a day or half a day ❤ There's something so totally relaxing about this city, I think it has the perfect life pace among all Polish cities - calm and slow, while it still is a city and not a village 😍 Also the vast amount of woods is a fantastic thing, and the fact that you get from the woods onto the seashore in few minutes is just mindblowing. My wife always tells me that we should move here 😂

My favorite place in Gdynia are the cliffs in the Orłowo district (to get there u have to walk through the forest starting from the pier side). Great place and not many people, so its nice to sit there and chillout. If u are still in the 3-city, I recommend go there for a walk ^-^ Cheers from Gdańsk :)

Love every your video and i have to say that instead saying na zdrowie you can say smacznego (we as poles usualyl say it before eating ) Na zdrowie is used when we are drinking for example in someone's birthday and we want to wish him the best

[@Preventorius]

5:20 - I used to live in that building with red doors behind you. Since birth for around 30 years, got school just on the backside of that building, your probably walked pass it. That place with red doors was a chinese restaurant and let me tell you - it was the best chinese food I ever ate. The chinese guy from there was super friendly, the other one saved my life. I was like 8 years old, and dog bit me in the neck, I almost bled to death, and he just shouted for my parents to come down. If not for him, I probably wouldn't make it. He was also amazing artist - making drawings of chinese tigers, and dragons. Man... Sometimes people just walk by all those places without realizing how many memories one place can store.

i live in gdynia my whole life and i recommend it for summer vacation but in autumn or winter its better to go to Kraków or Zakopane. When you are in gdynia in summer go to Babie Doły beach its less crowded and it cleaner. Also try pizza in "mąka i kawa" and pancakes in "manekin" and beer in "morze piwa".

[@blakewood2755]

Agreed, but I'd say Poland's GEM, it's not hidden honestly ;)

[@michadybczak4862]

That is very typical for Poland to have wide beaches with forest behind. I visited them as a kid, so it imprinted in my mind this is how a beach should look like. I'm often disappointed when there is no forest or the beach is too small. It fells.. lacking. However, nowadays, north of Poland is too cold for me. Temperatures around 30 are my vibe.

[@marcinpotka9070]

Gdynia - City that never wakes up :) It's great place to settle down and live though. So glad you liked it

Glad you had the opportunity to try pączki from that place, they really are one of the best ones! Especially if you can get your hands on the fresh, warm ones.

Tri Cities is awesome! I found it quite more expensive than Krakow. But the weather was killer! 😊 The Baltic Sea is very interesting. It’s shallow so is easily impacted negatively.

[@raymond288]

Hey Wes, random thought popped into my high mind. I'm Japanese American with time lived in Poland. Just by being us, we get a lot of options in Poland but I will say I have been to Poland as a skinny boy and as a bigger boy, and while attention was like 8/10 + as a skinny boy in Poland, shit shot up to 20/10 when i went back a buff boy. You're already doing well I know and I believe have a girl but taking 3 days or 4 at the gym for an hour at a time can make a big difference over a year. Its insane the attention you get from straight 10s as a big Asian dude in Poland. Its like you're already on Steroids dating wise over there but then your roids take roids. Its almost too much man. Wishing you the best!

One of the best things about Tricity is that those are three very different cities in one. IMO Gdynia might be the best to live, Sopot best to party, and Gdańsk to do anything else. BTW Kraków has actually very bad air compared to other Polish cities.

Not really. You can see it on airly during winter that there are days when air in Cracow is polluted at the same level as in Gdańsk or other big cities in Poland

Born and raised in Gdynia. It’s not a great city for its citizens. It’s quite hard for young people to buy their own place and stay here. Majority of my friends moved to smaller cities like Reda or Wejherowo😂.

[@MikoMeowMeowx3]

But this is not only Gdynia’s problem. We can say this about any big voivodeship city like Szczecin, Łódź, Kraków, and Warsaw. It’s not a city problem. It’s problem with Poland’s economy 🙃 of course Gdynia is one of most expensive city in Poland but this is because of many pros that city have. It’s much easier to find a job in 3city than for example in Słups for example. I think gdynia is great city for everyone.

[@kotisded]

Cool U`rein my region. We call that 3city, three cities but also the historical freedom of its inhabitants - free city/Solidarity movement/many nationalities building it and living together. So, u are usually here 20 minutes walking to the beach in one, and to the landscape forest park on another hand, it`s surrounding this terrain. These hills were made by glacial ice, u can image few km. of that in thickness moving inside the land. Great by bike, rent one of these e-bikes, terrain is mostly flat between citties. Its debatable if these algies are really dangerous, i checked and don`t have any alergic reaction. But at the beach there is slush, deeper is okay. Like, don`t drink a lot of it maye? : ) Outside the gulf its much less of that. A lot of wrecks in this region, if u`re a diver. WW II and Solidarity museums are really good.

[@kotisded]

Right so this is, a Solidarity movement anthem. one can speculate that this song started the process of tearing down the Berlin Wall, and its special for us. With subtitles. Jaczek Kaczmarski - Mury - kzbin.info/www/bejne/aZLXY6SggNqCprc&start_radio=1
