Krakow Holidays

Krakow
Cheap Holidays to Krakow Poland:

Enjoy a cheap holiday or weekend short break in Kraków, a southern Poland city near the border of the Czech Republic, is known for its well-preserved medieval core and Jewish quarter. Krakow's old town – ringed by Planty Park and remnants of the city’s medieval walls – is centered on the stately, expansive Rynek Glówny (market square). This plaza is the site of the Cloth Hall, a Renaissance-era trading outpost, and St. Mary’s Basilica, a 14th-century Gothic church.

On a hill in Krakow above the Vistula River is Wawel Cathedral and Wawel Castle, a sprawling Gothic royal palace-turned-museum showcasing European paintings and sculpture. The city’s Jewish history is on offer at Oskar Schindler's Factory and the former Jewish quarter, Kazimierz, which is now dotted with cheap hip cafes and bars. Holiday makers on a short break in Krakow often take day trips to nearby Auschwitz-Birkenau, a Nazi concentration camp memorial and museum, or 327m-deep Wieliczka Salt Mine, with a vast labyrinth of tunnels, chapels and chambers open to the public.
