Gold of the Baltic City which is a popular name of the local amber is thought as the most valuable fossilized resins that you can find all around the world. It has the highest amount of amber acid and thanks to its qualities it was used in many different ways. Of course, jewelry is the most known way, but it is also used in medicine, cosmetics, and many others. Why Gdańsk is a capital? It became a center of creation and trade of the amber.

5. Delicious food and drinks. 

When you are in Poland you need to try Pierogis (stuffed dumplings), Żurek (Sour Soup with egg and sausage), Schabowy (pork cutlet), or Barszcz (beat soup). Polish traditional food in taste is mostly sour and salty. Moreover, in Gdańsk, it connects local products with a Kashubian tradition. Many restaurants serve traditional polish food with some Gdańsk additions. Gdańsk has also long and rich traditions of beer crafting. The Jopen beer is produced here from at least XIV century and local vodka "Goldwasser" from 1598.

6 reasons why you need to visit Gdańsk

Actually, I don't know why I need to convince somebody to come to Gdańsk, but if you still have any doubts, there are 6 reasons why you should come.

1. 1000 years rich history

The history of Poland is quite complicated. When you are country that lays on lowlands in the middle of Europe it cannot go peaceful. Gdańsk had a huge impact on these lands and at least 3 times it has been on the mouth of the whole of Europe or even the world. First of all, it was the biggest and richest city in whole Poland in the 16th and 17th Century and the most enormous port on the Baltic sea. Very important trade node, that's a richness we can see up to today in the middle of the streets of the old town. Second of all, it became a conflict between Poland and III Reich, and that's why Hitler wanted to start World War 2 here and the city became a symbol of starting the Second World War.

Finally, in Gdansk shipyard Solidarity movement was born to become the biggest opposition to communists behind the Iron Curtain, counting 10 million Polish People in 1981. Lech Walesa who was a leader of the movement later on became a president of a free Poland.
