Walking in TORUN / Poland 🇵🇱- Summer Tour - 4K 60fps (UHD)

[@HCFEOM]

I have been to the city of Torun, and it is one of the best places that everybody wants to spend the rest of his/her life. Dzien Dobry......

[@Veaseify]

Lovely place, great for an overnight stay if you are going to or from Gdansk or Krakow. Stayed there in July 2022, next door to The Gingerbread Museum which has a wonderful smell filling the street. Chilling on a beer boat on the riverside in the evening was fantastic. Like Warsaw's Old Town, it's really the touristy part of a much bigger modern city and also like most places in Poland bars and restaurants seem to close really early!

For me it was also just one night there. It seems like enough if you leave late and also have a stroll on the 2nd day before leaving. There are a total of 3 videos recorded in Torun on the channel

I was born in Gdansk on the Baltic sea Pomerania and grow up there , Torun is Beautiful and mistic City . Regards from Melbourne Australia 🇵🇱🇦🇺 cheers 🍻

[@poptravelorg]

Thank you. There are several videos of Gdansk on the channel - as well as more of Poland. I was a bit in the Baltics recently - Riga and Vilnius. Currently I'm in Poland. New videos will appear here soon. For now here is the Poland playlist: kzbin.info/aero/PLaxUrZNxL7WJbd_j27thqGAZZAsmaKemo

I love Poland; it hits that sweet spot between western and eastern Europe.

[@jeanvaljean7266]

You are aware that huge parts of contemporary Poland belonged to the German-speaking hemisphere for several hundreds of years. Also this city Torun (German: Thorn) does not only have a Polish but a German heritage, too.

Obejrzałem walking tour Lima i Buenos Aires , teraz jestem tu i normalnie powiew świeżego powietrza

[@kamilpasek281]

I was there many years ago in 2009 till 2011 like about 10 years ago 😉😎

[@user-us6ce7me8k]

Awesome underrated travel destination 👍

[@KEVIN-nf9oh]

Wow, I never thought this would be covered here! Went to Warsaw once and made a friend from Torun, we remained pen-pals for years, I've heard lots of stories about this city. Looking forward to exploring it with you.

[@poptravelorg]

Thank you! There are more walks in Torun linked in the description. This video here was the first one I recorded. I'm currently in Poland though on a different route getting to towns I have't been - like Lublin right now. All the existing Poland videos are from 2019/2020 so a few new ones will come up soon. Warsaw is also on the channel, BTW. Thanks for watching!

Aaaayyy yo that's me at the beginning of the film, I'm the guy in yellow shirt and samurai haircut wooow I love it ❤️

[@hanaahanaa8733]

I adore Poland and I have a simple question: Why is Poland, this large and wonderful European country, not as famous as a European country much smaller than it?

[@rsnankivell1962]

Communism effects? Thank God, Polish people got rid of that awful system.

[@12345UMZ]

I guess foreigners still have a lot of misconceptions about Poland coming from Soviet Bloc times. Those misconceptions, as well as Poland itself has been changing rapidly in last 15-20 years though.

[@poptravelorg]

Did you see this other Torun video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/enWwd3mXfr2EZqM and at night kzbin.info/www/bejne/gJPVqqxrq9mFndU ? Currently no new travels to Torun are planned but Poland sure is on the list for some updates. Maybe I'll get to Torun again as well. Thanks for watching!

[@wilczydukt]

My beautiful city! :) Just a few days ago I recorded a walk in the rain in Toruń. I invite you to watch! :)

[@tripmood365]

Hey! An interesting city. Lots of great architecture and a really relaxed atmosphere. Fun to listen to people's chatter :) Do you remember what day of the week this was?

[@poptravelorg]

The video was recorded on a Friday

[@tripmood365]

@@poptravelorg Ok thanks :)

[@umegadarkstar2657]

Is this a re-upload?

[@poptravelorg]

It's a "new" and previously unpublished video. Re-uploads aren't really allowed on KZbin as "duplicate content". You can find the other Torun videos in the video description which are different routes

[@tripmood365]

​@@poptravelorg Thanks for the good tip. Gotta go see :)

[@rsnankivell1962]

Pretty nice, but since it is a World Heritage site, it could be a bit better kept. A typical city in that area: Polish, but German Prussian-looking ... Good job.

[@blinkblinkRNB]

Not really, Toruń (founded by Slavs since "ethnic" Prussians are not of German descent) was, at one time, the third largest city in the Polish Kingdom which, btw., is much older than "Germany" or even Prussia. Indeed, some buildings are "German" looking but the old-town was mainly built long before the big migration period (prussian settlement commission) took place in the 18th and 19th century (which does not mean that there were no Germans before). Also: If you look closely, most buildings look like the ones you'd typically find in Krakow.

[@hordeman8933]

@@blinkblinkRNB The same Krakow, built largely by german-speaking bourgeoisie?

[@blinkblinkRNB]

​@@hordeman8933 You are not wrong insofar as Germans indeed had a huge impact (since krakow became a multicultural city eventually + capital of Poland). Germans and jews were the largest minorty at that time. And unlike Jews (who were mostly poor) it was the German nobility that immigrated into Poland. However, Polish architecture is "aware" of its multi-cultural roots hence it has its own "character". If you want to see how foreigners "interpreted" Polish architecture just take a look at the palace of science and culture (Warsaw) when it comes to the "modern" approach of the old or the cloth hall (Krakow) for the old-town style. Both were created with the purpose to LOOK specifically Polish or rather to reflect its architecture (in the case of the palace - as a gift to the Polish people from Stalin). The buildings you can find in the USA (built by Polish-Americans) are also helpful in this regard. Say, St. Stanislaus Church in milwaukee. For most people it looks German/English or even French.

[@blinkblinkRNB]

Well, German Migration (to the East) has a long history in Europe. The patterns are significant. From Wikipedia ("Baltic Germans") --> "At first the majority of German settlers lived in small cities and military castles. Their elite formed the Baltic nobility, acquiring large rural estates and comprising the social, commercial, political and cultural elite of Livonia for several centuries." I guess this is also why Polish and e.g. Lithuanian cities look very similar to each other (although Polish culture was very dominant during the Polish-Lithuanian commonwealth, so there is that). "Polish culture began influencing that of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania around the time of the Union of Lublin, and during the time of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth, (1569-1795) much of the Lithuanian nobility was Polonized and joined the Polish-Lithuanian szlachta class."
