Your Destinations —
The Old Town with the Royal Castle and the Market Square with their welcoming outdoor terraces, are top spots to sit back with a Polish beer (try a refreshing Zywiec).
Eat al fresco at a waterside café, visit one of the world's oldest brick churches and pick up some beautiful handmade amber jewellery - the trademark precious stone of the city.
Kraków’s postcard-perfect Old Town features Europe’s largest medieval market square and even a fairy-tale castle overlooking the river.
The centuries have been kind to the former capital of the Russian Empire – St Petersburg looks as grand today as when Peter the Great laid the foundation stones in 1703. From his cabin on Petrogradskaya Storona, the Russian emperor invited Europe's leading architects to fill the streets with extravagant palaces and elegant Baroque cathedrals. Today, the historic centre is preserved as a UNESCO World Heritage site, along with the grand palaces of the Romanovs at Peterhof, Pushkin and Pavlovsk.
In addition to the famous sites of the Red Square, the Kremlin, and the imposing nine domes of St. Basil's Cathedral, Moscow boasts an emerging art and music scene, and plenty of galleries and cafes, full of Moscow's cultured crowd.
The dining scene is equally vivacious , with everything from elegant haute cuisine to family friendly establishments.
