landscape
The city lies on the coast of the Baltic Sea. Its proximity
to the sea and location at the crossroads of four distinct
geographical regions account for the highly diverse
landscape of the city, ranging from sandy beaches to
flatlands, deep valleys and steep cliffs. The city’s forests and
parks account for one of the greatest natural resources,
covering 24% of the city’s total area. Gdańsk is also home to
a large forest complex that makes up part of the Tri-City
Landscape Park.

City and sites
Gdańsk is the capital of the Pomeranian voivodship, as
well as the sixth most populated and seventh largest city in
Poland. It is home to one of Poland’s most valuable old town
areas, although most of the historic city centre was
destroyed during World War II and subsequently rebuilt.
