Rick Steves' Europe

S13E04 Poland's Warsaw and Gdańsk

Warsaw, the vibrant center of modern Poland, boasts an impressive palace that reflects its turbulent 20th-century past and lively Chopin performances. Our journey takes us to the charming gingerbread shops in red-brick Toruń, where we indulge in sweet treats before admiring the imposing fortress of the Teutonic Knights at Malbork. We conclude our adventure in picturesque Gdańsk, exploring its elegant Hanseatic-style townhouses, browsing amber jewelry, and delving into the powerful legacy of the Solidarity movement.
