Gdańsk: Since You're Here, Visit Malbork Castle! 🏰✨

Just a 30-40 minute train ride from Gdańsk Główny (Main Station), you’ll arrive in Malbork—home to the majestic Malbork Castle, the world’s largest brick castle! From the station, it’s a 15-minute walk through a small commercial area to reach the castle gates. Why It’s Worth the Trip: Time Needed: Plan for 3-4 hours (I spent 3.5 hours exploring at a relaxed pace). Some travelers even stretch it to 5 hours with lunch breaks or extra photo stops! Just a 30-40 minute train ride from Gdańsk Główny (main station) to Malbork, then a 15-minute walk through a small commercial area—and voilà, you’ve arrived at the majestic Malbork Castle! Why You’ll Love It ❤️ ✔ Spend 3-5 Hours Exploring (I took 3.5 hours, but with lunch & breaks, you can easily stretch it to 5!). ✔ Audio Guide Magic 🎧 – Available in multiple languages (sadly, no Chinese), it smoothly directs you room-to-room so you won’t get lost. ✔ Beat the Crowds 👥 – Arrive early (opens at 9 AM)! I entered around 10 AM and left at 1:30 PM, just as the tourist wave hit. Train Ticket Tips 🚆💡 One-way tickets vary: Cheap options (15-19 PLN) vs. faster trains (63 PLN). I pre-booked my outbound ticket (15 PLN) but bought a pricey return ticket (63 PLN) because… well, I didn’t want to wait around! 😅 Final Verdict ⚔️🌟 A must-visit for history buffs, castle lovers, and Instagrammers alike! The largest brick castle in the world won’t disappoint. #HistoricArchitecture #CastleLovers #Poland #ExplorePoland #EuropeanAdventures #TravelGram #Wanderlust
