Answer:

Wiesel's first impression was that it is better than Birkenau.

Step-by-step explanation:

Elie Wiesel's "Night" is about the experiences of the narrator and writer Elie and his father in the concentration camps during the Nazi regime. The government under Nazism had started prosecuting Jews and even killing them. Elie and his father were also part of those people captured and sent to concentration camps. After being shifted to Auschwitz, his first impression about the new place was that it is a much better place than Birkenau. This is for the fact that they were humanely greeted on arrival, with cement walls instead of wooden barracks. Also the presence of small gardens add to its charm.
