Those are beautifully intricate buildingsāthe church, railway tower and hotel. The architectural touches add a lot. I really like the top of the church and its brickwork.
Thank you Ellen for your kind words of appreciation, these builders sure did interesting and intricate work with their bricks!

I keep seeing these fantastic images with bright blue skies in this part of your trip.
What time of year was this and does Poland's weather usually cooperate this well?
Wonderful compositions for your "namesake cathedral"!!

We visited Gdansk in late September 2016 and were certainly very lucky with the weather during the entire trip in Poland, and even for almost all the days in the Netherlands and Germany as well. We have experienced September to be a rather steady month in Europe weatherwise, and most of our travels to Europe are between April-June and again mid August to mid-October. These shoulder periods have way less people traveling and more doing their ordinary work which can additionally be interesting. August to September also brings the harvest which make the local markets so interesting. I cannot really comment on Poland's weather overall, but the only other time we visited Poland was in the spring of 2011, we had good weather in Krakow and a good first day in early May in Warsaw, but then the weather forecast was so dismal that we cut our stay in Warsaw short and moved on - so sometimes you get lucky, sometimes not.
