Nowy Targ, Regional capital in Lesser Poland Voivodeship, Poland.
Nowy Targ sits at the meeting point of Czarny Dunajec and Biały Dunajec rivers, surrounded by the Gorce Mountains at 585 meters elevation.
The settlement, initially called Novum Forum, received city rights from King Casimir the Great in 1346 and developed into a major trading center.
The town maintains a centuries-old tradition of weekly markets every Thursday and Saturday, where vendors sell regional products and local crafts.
The town functions as a transportation hub with Poland's highest-located airport, rail connections, and bus services linking to major cities across the region.
The Bor na Czerwonem Nature Reserve contains protected species including Drosera rotundifolia plants, Mountain Pine trees, and Black Grouse birds.
