WOW! MEDIEVAL TORUN IS A WONDROUS, BEAUTIFUL ESCAPE 🇵🇱 THIS IS REAL POLAND - TRAVEL VLOG

On my long awaited return trip to Poland, evening number one is in the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Toruń, Poland. In the north-central part of the country, it's a convenient resting spot between Warsaw and Gdansk.
Join me on this walking tour and travel vlog, as we walk from the train station, across the Vistula river and on to the streets of the Medieval town of Toruń. You can see the cobbled streets, find Copernicus's boyhood home, wander around St. John's Cathedral (an old Gothic church from the 14th century) and of course discourse the beautiful rynek.
We will finish off our tour with an evening meal at a Ukrainian restaurant. Let me know what you think and whether you have ever been to this cute city.

I have lived in almost 20 villages, towns and cities arcoss Poland and Germany (Cracow, Wrocław, Halle, Cologne and many others). In 2015 I left them all to settle down in Toruń. Is it your first visit to this city? In summer it is very crowded and lively. There is much more to the Old Town than meets the eye and Toruń is much more than its Old Town. I needed 20 years to discover all its stunning places and secrets. Have fun and come back!

@marcinerdmann476 I was only able to visit for a night. I know way too short. I liked what I saw though.

[@bastian33o2]

Jona is back in Poland! Woohoo!

[@TravelwithMrJon]

@bastian3302 you are getting two - three videos a week for the next month. Was good to be back.

As a teenager I was sometimes walking for hours in the old Torun, the beauty, colors, design... Medieval is better! Pure divine architecture! Torun (or Thorn in German), I would say it is Northern Poland, some might say Torun has more valuable architecture than Krakow, I do believe it has ... Please leave me alone Krakow lovers.... 😂 It is called Prussian city(in a good way, precision and beauty combined), German Teutonic order invaded Baltic countries subjugating Prussian population, they were defeated eventually(and became a part of the Commonwealth), M. Kopernik also commanded Polish defense in the region.

[@TravelwithMrJon]

@perkunlitewski I wish I had given more time to explore. The colors and beauty were wonderful. Funny about the Krakow lovers. I liked the energy.

[@perkunlitewski]

@@TravelwithMrJon Of course I'm biased I prefer the North- influenced by the Balts, Germans, Dutch and even Swedes. I sometimes say R. Polansky survived Krakow's GHETTO, but it is still a ghetto too many people ..lol 😆 Krakow is not gonna like such remarks...

[@TravelwithMrJon]

I don't know which part I prefer. I certainly took to the smaller cities east of Krakow and well to the west. The north has an interesting vibe as well.@@perkunlitewski

[@perkunlitewski]

I wonder if Tucker C. would notice it might be cleaner than in Moscow😂

[@TravelwithMrJon]

Has Tucker even been to Poland? :) @perkunlitewski

[@perkunlitewski]

@@TravelwithMrJon No, but he is constantly interviewing Polish politicians who claim they didn't allow even one illegal migrant. The same music all the time ... 🎵

[@TravelwithMrJon]

There's a reason he is no longer on mainstream media in USA. @@perkunlitewski

Jona, you said you would be in Poland in February. You only succeeded because this year February has 29 days and not 28 🤗🤭

[@TravelwithMrJon]

@nonperson22 I was in Poland last week. Filmed my spots Feb 18 - 24. But yes showing the trip I waited. I might have mentioned you in my Sopot piece...that comes out on Sunday. :)

[@nonperson22]

@@TravelwithMrJon Nie ma na to dowodów ale jeśli powiedziałeś o mnie coś miłego to możemy przyjąć że ci wierzę że byłeś od 18 do 24 🤫

[@TravelwithMrJon]

Good point. I was pointing out your superior observation skills with churches.@@nonperson22

[@nonperson22]

@@TravelwithMrJon Aah, churches. I could have guessed. Probably some church was closed, you couldn't go in, and you immediately thought of me, how nice 😅

[@TravelwithMrJon]

You know me so well. Yes, I blamed you for them being closed.@@nonperson22

[@tappvlogs]

how do you like it out there in Poland?? Greetings from Chicago

[@TravelwithMrJon]

@tappvlogs Poland is one of my favorite spots in the world. Beautiful country, history, and good people.

Oh bloody hell - you haven’t wait for a bus from train station?!

[@TravelwithMrJon]

No I walked. @bajkabajeczka560

[@bajkabajeczka560]

@@TravelwithMrJon I’ve walked as well… on a heels. We’ve went to a Rapacki Squere and than I’ve said:”I hate Toruń- even a pigeons are ugly here”- but I love the city (I used to live Ty) even if I live in London for almost 2 decades now😂

[@TravelwithMrJon]

On heels that’s impressive. @bajkabajeczka560
