Bucharest is well worth a visit, some great late 19thC grandeur, excellent (cheap) metro, and the "entertainment" district was extensively refurbed 10 years ago (info here: http://ar-tour.com/guides/bucharest-guide/lipscani.aspx).Quote:

Beautiful city. And as a tip... Their neighbours wine (Moldovan) is one of the best kept secrets in Europe.
Sorry I can't comment on Gdańsk.
Done, Warsaw, Poznan, Wroclaw & Krakow in Poland but not Gdansk, I like Poland and had a few more places on the wish list, Gdansk being one of them but it wasn't/isn't to be, good beer, quite a few attractions mostly associated to war and unless its changed its relatively clean, for a Capitol City I was really surprised how clean Warsaw was. Not been to Bucharest
I have a Friend from Gdansk, of course they speak highly of it and we were due to visit but Covid hit,
