Krakow, Poland's cultural capital, is a city brimming with history, charm, and vibrant life. Steeped in legend, Krakow was founded after a dragon was defeated on Wawel Hill. As a UNESCO World Heritage city, it boasts stunning medieval architecture, quirky character, and a thriving arts scene, making it an essential destination for culture lovers and history enthusiasts alike.

Must-sees:

• Wawel Castle: A royal treasure offering breathtaking views of the city and a deep dive into Poland's royal history.
• Main Market Square (Rynek Główny): The beating heart of Krakow, home to the Cloth Hall and St. Mary’s Basilica.
• Cloth Hall (Sukiennice): A historic market turned museum, where you can immerse yourself in Poland’s artistic and cultural heritage.
• Piłsudski’s Mound: For sweeping panoramic views of the city and the surrounding mountains.
• Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum: A short trip from the city, offering a sobering and moving account of Poland's WWII history.

Culinary culture:

Polish cuisine in Krakow is hearty and full of flavour, with pierogi (dumplings) and bigos (hunter’s stew) as essential dishes to try. The city’s food scene also includes delicious smoked sausages, local beers, and Żubrówka vodka. For a sweet treat, indulge in paczki (Polish doughnuts) or traditional honey cakes, found in many of the city’s quaint cafés.

Dive deeper:

While Krakow is rich in cultural treasures, consider exploring beyond the city limits. Zakopane, with its stunning Tatra Mountains and traditional highlander culture, is perfect for nature lovers. Lesser-known gems like Wroclaw and Lublin also offer their own unique cultural experiences, with fascinating history and charming streets.

Good to know:

Poland’s currency is the złoty (PLN). Krakow boasts an efficient public transport system, including trams and buses, making it easy to navigate the city. The ideal times to visit are during spring and autumn when the weather is mild, though Krakow's allure remains strong throughout the year.
