The Zegrze Reservoir (or Zegrze Lake, in Polish Zalew Zegrzyński or Jezioro Zegrzyńskie) is a reservoir in Poland, located just north of Warsaw. It is formed by a dam constructed on the lower course of the Narew river (sometimes also called Bugo-Narew river). It was created in 1963. Its surface area is about 33 km².

Due to convenient nearby location, it is a very popular place of recreation for the inhabitants of Warsaw.

Golden Gate (Polish: Złota Brama) in Gdańsk, Poland, originally Langgassentor is one of the most notable tourist attractions of the city. It was raised in 1612–14 in place of the 13th century gothic gate (Brama Długouliczna). It is located at one end of Długa Street (ul. Długa), where, together with Brama Wyżynna and Wieża Więzienna, it forms a part of the old city fortifications.

It was designed by architect Abraham van den Blocke and was constructed by Jan Strakowski. The architectural style of the gate is Dutch manierism. Next to it is the late-gothic building of the Brotherhood of St.George.

Both sides of the gate have attiques, with figures symbolising citizen's qualities. They were designed in 1648 by Jeremiasz Falck-Polonus, and reconstructed in 1878 due to the originals being damaged by time and climate.

The Great Mill, erected in the 14th century. It used to produce 200 tons of flour a day.
