THINGS TO SEE & DO in KRAKOW

TOP ATTRACTIONS

Start off at Rynek Glowny, Europe’s largest medieval town square, now surrounded by elegant cafes to allow you to observe the goings on. In he middle of the Square lies the striking Cloth Hall building, and St Mary’s Church & Watch Tower lie on the edge of Rynek Glowny.

The next essential sight is the Royal Castle on Wawel Hill, seat of Poland's kings from the 11th to the early 17th century. The castle complex features the State Rooms, Royal Private Apartments and Wawel Cathedral.

Two of the best museums to visit are the National Museum and the History Museum of the City of Krakow.

The atmospheric former Jewish district of Kazimierz is definitely worth visiting, including the Old Synagogue.

Two popular day tours are run by many tour companies from Krakow and are worth considering if you are here for three or more days. The first lies 60km west of Krakow - the Auschwitz Birkenau Memorial & Museum. Visiting these former Nazi concentration camps is a trip you will never forget, very moving indeed.

The other popular tour is the unusual World-Heritage listed Salt Mines of Wieliczka, 10km outside of Krakow.

Krakow is a very walkable city, with some nice green areas and plenty to see while just wandering throughout this fascinating place. One of the very best cities to visit for a short break in our opinion.

The Polish beer and great nightlife are not to be missed either.
