The country arguably most affected by Europe’s bitter 20th century bloodshed, Poland has by no means let go of its past, but strides steadfastly into the future. Warsaw is the ever-evolving, young capital, while Kraków is the former royal center containing fine examples of Gothic, Baroque and Art Nouveau architecture. Pursuits in nature abound (the country is interspersed with hiking trails across hills and forests), the food is hearty and cheap, and the people tremendously welcoming.
Denne middelalderby ser ud som om den lige er hentet ud af en eventyrbog med sin levende markedsplads, spiralformede gotiske tårne, slotte og legender om drager. Udforsk de smalle baggyder, skjulte stotsgårde og nettet at underjordiske kældre og tunneler. Krakow er kendt for at være Polens kulturelle hovedstad på grund af byens forkærlighed for musik, digtekunst og teater. Efter mange års besættelse og kamp fremstår Krakow nu som en stolt by med en stærk identitetsfølelse, men stadig med en kunstnerisk og humoristisk sjæl.
