What travelers say:

Poland's medieval town of Torren was the birthplace of Christmas gingerbread, a food that was added to a large amount of ginger and cinnamon, and was said to be a very expensive imported spice during the Crusades, so it was only used for important festivals such as Christmas and Easter. Add ginger to cakes and biscuits to add flavor and chill out. Over time, gingerbread has become a Christmas-related snack. There is also a legend in the UK that an unmarried woman can meet an ideal partner if she eats gingerbread. Gingerbread soon became the most popular snack for Christmas after being given the Christmas atmosphere. The old shop passing by on Torren Street should be the most famous, and there are endless people coming to buy it. In addition to gingerbread, the small town itself is also very worth visiting, it was originally established by the Teutonic Order in 1232, and later became an important commercial center in the Middle Ages, is a relatively well-preserved ancient city in Poland, and is listed as a world cultural heritage. It is Copernicus's home.
