What to do in Krakow?
Krakow's charming Main Market Square is located in the center of the old town and is the beating heart of the city. It is surrounded by some of Krakow's most iconic sights and offers magnificent views at every turn.
The Cloth Hall, from the Renaissance period, dominates the center of the square. Traders have been selling their wares here for over 700 years, including salt from the famous Wieliczka Salt Mine. Often nicknamed “the oldest shopping center in Europe”, it's the ideal place to buy colorful crafts.
-The imposing St. Mary's Basilica dominates the west side of the square. The small church of Adalbert, near Grodzka Street, dates from the 11th century. On all sides, the square is lined with beautiful buildings constructed from the wealth of the city's different eras. The restaurants offer tables on the terrace overlooking the square and are lively until late at night.
The place is built on a cake of history. Most restaurants here have intriguing underground caves – Piano Rouge, for example, has a jazz bar decorated in decadent red velvet and a niche where sultry singers sing jazz standards.
Underneath the market hall you will find the Rynek Underground. Both an archaeological site and a high-tech museum, this must-see attraction will take you on a fascinating journey through the city's history, from the earliest settlers to the present day. You will even find the remains of an 11th century cemetery there. Try to spot graves belonging to suspected vampires.
Discover Krakow's lively Jewish quarter
Founded in 1335 by Casimir the Great, this area just south of Wawel Hill became a thriving center of Jewish life and culture in Krakow. It was almost completely destroyed during World War II, but in recent years it has undergone a revival to become one of the city's hippest and most vibrant neighborhoods.
