HELLO POZNAŃ! Canadians travel to Poland.
We spend our first full day in Poland exploring the beautiful city of Poznań. We start out at the Old Town Market Square seeing the fountains, Merchant’s Row and then Town Hall to see the the fightings goats at noon. We then make our way through Park Cytadela to visit old military remnants and view the sculpture called The Unrecognized. Next we head to Cathedral Island and to the area called Śródka for some Polish Dumplings called Pierogis. Finally we make our way back to Old Town by walking along the riverbank or the Warta River.

Poznań is a city on the Warta River in western Poland. It’s known for universities as well as its old town, with Renaissance-style buildings in Old Market Square.
Poznan was once the capital of Poland and is still the capital of the Wielkopolska region. Poznan lies midway between Berlin and Warsaw, which has helped make it an important town for centuries. Badly damaged in World War II, the city (especially its Old Town) has been beautifully restored. The huge Old Town Square (Stary Rynek) is one of Europe’s nicest, and is lined by fabulous historic attractions, restaurants and nightlife. The Basilica of Saints Peter and Paul is Poland’s oldest cathedral.
The most impressive structure on the Main Square has to be the deliciously elaborate Town Hall at its centre. First erected in the early 14th century, it truly flowered in mid-1500s when Italian architect Giovanni Quadro of Lugano added the Renaissance loggia, attic, and classical tower, earning the structure acclaim as “the most beautiful Renaissance town hall north of the Alps”.
Built in the same year, the Cathedral was repeatedly damaged by natural and building disasters and wars. Now it is a three-aisle Gothic basilica with pre-Romanesque and Romanesque relics, surrounded by a semicircle of chapels.
The Warta is the second longest river lying entirely in Poland; its basin of 21,084 square miles (54,607 square km) makes it the third largest in Poland. About half its length, from Kostrzyn to Konin, is navigable. The Warta drops 1,224 feet (373 m) from its headwaters to its mouth. The river drains a largely agricultural area of the Polish plain. Częstochowa, Konin, Poznań, and Gorzów Wielkopolski are major cities along its course.

In this video I want to share with you the highlights of my one day in Torun, Poland.
This is a beautiful, medieval town in the northern region of Poland. I visited as a day trip from Gdansk taking the train both ways.
Torun is known as the gingerbread capital of Europe and everywhere in the old town you'll find bakeries selling gingerbread cookies of all kinds.
Some of the other best things to do in Torun, Poland include the gingerbread Museum, the different monuments, the castle ruins, and all of the great food.
While small, the Torun Old Town is one of the most best-preserved and picturesque in all of Poland. Bonus tip: head across the river for a different view of the Old Town.
There are plenty of local breweries and affordable restaurants throughout the city. I recommend pierogi and a local beer!
Hope you enjoyed this video about my trip to Torun, Poland. Thanks for watching!
