One of the most eye-catching landmarks of the city is the Basilica of St. Marys. You probably saw it first as you entered the city, and it looks like it dominates the skyline from all angles. This Gothic church is one of the biggest brick churches in the world and one of the most popular tourist locations in the city.
I would recommend taking a stroll around the surrounding area of this landmark, but make sure you take your time here, as you won't regret it.

Carrying on with the theme of visiting beautiful religious buildings, you will come across St Catherine's Church a short walk away. Maybe not as stunning as other landmarks, but you definitely need to take a quick look at it to admire the architecture and history of this church.
This is one of the oldest churches in northern Poland, with it stunning architecture dating back hundreds of years. It was damaged during the WW2, but was rebuilt shortly after.

After all the walking and exploring you've done this morning, it's time to take the load off your feet at Drukarnia. Grab a lovely coffee and a well-earned lunch. The menu here is fairly priced with a good choice of cakes and sandwiches. I personally loved the flat white here as a coffee lover.

As the long walks continue, take a quick break in the local park. A meeting point for locals and depending on the time of year a great location for a drink and chill out with friends.

Time for an afternoon drink in one of many bars in the city. A good chance to explore the local beer list of Poland while relaxing and reflecting on the day so far. If you are brave enough, Poland is famous for its vodka, which I am sure will be offered to you more than once.

After a short walk from the bar, you'll see the Royal Chapel. This landmark will show off one of many different types of architecture and time periods of this once powerful and important city of Europe.
I would suggest taking your time to explore the area around this landmark, the busy part of the town.

Park the car here, as it's one of the best and safest places to leave it as you take the stroll through the outskirts of Gdańsk to your next location.

By this time, you would have discovered and visited many places of Gdańsk. I think a very fitting way to end the visit is to walk to Gora Gradowa. Here you can take in the views of the city and look over everywhere you've been during the day.

On the way north to the second city, stop off for one of the best burger places in Northern Poland. There is a great choice here with some creative burgers to try. This place offers great value for money, and you won't be disappointed with the portions either.
