Life in Olszynka
Olszynka is administratively a Gdańsk district, but its character is typical of the Polish countryside — meadows, Żuławy canals, low-rise buildings and occasional windmills. The boundary of the city with the rest of the Żuławy Wiślane region.
For travellers it's a surprising pick: quiet and space you won't find anywhere in Gdańsk, but with the centre 15–20 minutes away by car. Without a car it's impractical — public transport is rare.
Sensible for people who want to come home to absolute calm after a day of sightseeing, and for bird watchers (Żuławy is an important habitat).
