Beach at Sopot

Beach at Sopot
Sopot, a popular resort for more than 100 years, stretches along the Baltic Sea on Poland's northeast coast. During the town's heyday in the 1920s and 1930s, wealthy tourists gambled at its casino. The casino burned to the ground during World War II but was later replaced.
