Abstract
This paper is a result of the gallery walk workshop conducted in a group of specialists from various branches of science connected with the urban research, during the seminary summarizing the EBEH Project “Guests in a City – a City in relation to visitors – analysis of socio-spatial city structures in context of the City Users theory”. The gallery walk method was used as a tool to stimulate the discussion on four groups of city users in polish cities: students, tourists, foreigners and suburbs inhabitants. The results of discussion were compared with some main assumptions of the City Users theory. This approach helped authors to answer their main question: Are city users in polish cities as important as they are in described cases from Western Europe?References
