Discover Krakow
Krakow, Poland’s cultural gem, offers a wealth of historical and architectural wonders. Krakow’s allure is encapsulated in its vibrant Old Town Square, where the historic Cloth Hall and St. Mary’s Basilica stand as iconic landmarks. The Kazimierz district, once the heart of Jewish life, offers a rich cultural experience with its synagogues and bustling cafes. A visit to the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum provides a poignant reflection on history, while the Banksy Museum is a ‘must see’ for news readers, art lovers and people who have heard of Banksy. Just outside the city, the UNESCO-listed Wieliczka Salt Mine amazes with its intricate salt sculptures and subterranean wonders.
