About
Nowy Targ is a town in the Podhale region of southern Poland, where the Biały and Czarny Dunajec meet. It is a traditional market centre and a base for the nearby Tatra and Gorce mountains.
Notes
The name means “new market”; a literal English translation is not the city’s English name. Input label 'Новий Торг' is Ukrainian or an indirect spelling; local_name is restored to the native-language form. Less common cross-language forms are for historical or regional text recognition, not recommendations for ordinary modern prose.
