Krakow is now officially my favourite city in the whole world!
The place is just magical day and night, no photos or comments can do it justice.......Just visit there and see for yourself.
I am worried that within a couple of years it will be the new Prague...So I would suggest that you visit sooner rather than later!
It has a very special place in my heart, a city rich with Jewish history and culture, beautiful buildings and brilliant people along with the Vodka...or should I say Wodka! makes Krakow a very interesting city to visit.
- Pros:Wodka!! People, History, Culture and buildings
- Cons:Cold weather.....!
- In a nutshell:Magical, a place I know I will visit time and time again.

Hi Ali, Krakow is also one of my favorite cities as well. I've been there twice and never tired of it. Many fond memories of drinking Zywiec beer in the Rynek Glowny. Thanks for the great tour. Must get my pics together...Tom
Such a wonderful city....we are fortunate to have visited. Thankfully the wars didn't harm it.
Reading your pages again has brought back so many memories. We will certainly go again but when it is warm !! Great tips too
