We are in Krakow, a historically and culturally rich city that has been an important political, cultural and academic center of Polish life for centuries.
In recent days, it has also managed to consolidate a welcoming atmosphere that highlights it as one of the most popular tourist destinations in the European context.
That sweet combination between present and past, between aesthetics and cultural value, makes Krakow an unmissable destination for planned journeys on this side of the map.
Krakow has an impressive historical heritage including the Old Town, which was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site. In the center of the city is the Market Square, one of the largest medieval squares in Europe, surrounded by historic and colorful buildings.
Located on a hill, the Wawel Royal Castle is one of the most iconic places in Krakow. It was the residence of Polish kings for centuries and houses an impressive collection of art, furniture and historical objects.
Krakow is also known for its rich cultural and artistic scene. The city has numerous museums, theaters, art galleries and cultural festivals throughout the year.
Krakow is also a major academic center and is home to several universities, including the Jagiellonian University, one of the oldest in Europe. The presence of students gives the city a young and lively atmosphere.
And we must not forget that Krakow is a deeply religious city and is the seat of the archbishop of the Roman Catholic Church in Poland. Pope John Paul II, who was archbishop of Krakow before being elected pope, is a much-loved figure in the city.
Krakow is home to several major festivals, such as the Krakow International Theater Festival, the Krakow Jazz Festival and the Sacred Music Festival.
In terms of services for tourists, it is a first-class city. The costs are not the most affordable and the high influx of tourists can mean that accommodation and food have prices above the Polish average.
It is always good to remember that booking in advance on platforms such as booking.com for accommodation and azair.com for flights is a good way to lighten your budget.
Krakow is a city full of history, culture and architectural beauty. With its welcoming atmosphere and rich tradition, the city attracts visitors from all over the world. It is a fascinating destination for those interested in the history, art and culture of Central Europe.
