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.
Denna medeltidsstad ser ut som om den vore tagen ur en sagobok, med sitt livliga torg, spiralformade Gotiska torn, slott och legender om drakar. Utforska de smala bakgatorna, gömda innergårdarna och nätverket av underjordiska tunnlar och valv. Kärleken till musik, poesi och teater har gjort staden till Polens kulturhuvudstad. Efter flera år av ockupation och kamp har Krakow trätt fram som en stolt stad med en stark identitetskänsla och har ändå behållit sin konstnärliga och nöjesälskande själ.
