Trip to Krakow 🇵🇱

It was a trip to Krakow Old Town. We visited Wawel Castle, a historic castle residency located in central Krakow. It was the political and cultural heart of Poland during the 16th century. We went there for a quick walk and explored around. 📍Wawel 5, 31-001 Kraków We also visited Wawel Cathedral This cathedral is the coronation site of Polish monarchs and the burial place of many national heroes. 📍Wawel 3, 31-001 Kraków We then had our lunch at Pod Wawelem. I would recommend you to try Polish Platter (selection of traditional Polish dishes). The price was considered cheap and the quality of food is great. 📍Świętej Gertrudy 26-29, 31-048 Kraków We also visited the Main Market Square (Rynek Główny). The largest medieval town square in Europe, dating back to the 13th century. 📍Rynek Główny, 30-062 Kraków We also visited St. Mary's Basilica, a Gothic church famous for its wooden altarpiece carved by Veit Stoss. The place was stunning. 📍Plac Mariacki 5, 31-042 Kraków We also explored the Cloth Hall (Sukiennice), a Renaissance building and a major center of international trade in the medieval period. 📍Rynek Główny 1/3, 31-042 Kraków P/s: If you are looking for a place for dinner, I would recommend you to try Szara Gęś. Out of all, my favorite was Duck breast with seasonal fruits. It was really good and I will definitely recommend to you try ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 📍Rynek Główny 17, 31-008 Kraków We also explored the Kazimierz District. The historic Jewish quarter of Krakow, known for its rich cultural heritage. Aside from this, we also visited Old Synagogue. The oldest surviving synagogue in Poland. It is now a museum which I found it very unique and interesting. 📍Szeroka 24, 31-053 Kraków We also explored theSchindler's Factory Museum, a museum dedicated to the wartime experiences of Oskar Schindler and the Jews he saved. 📍Lipowa 4, 30-702 Kraków If you’re a museum lover like me, you can check Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum out! It is the largest of the Nazi concentration and extermination camps, a solemn reminder of the Holocaust. Worth to explore🫶🫶🫶 📍Więźniów Oświęcimia 20, 32-600 Oświęcim ‼️ It's a 1.5-hour drive from Krakow. Consider booking a guided tour if you’re not familiar with the area. This itinerary covers significant historical sites. We really enjoy our time there in Krakow🫶 Enjoy your trip to Krakow! #vacation #trip #getaway
