Cracow - a city which is located about 70km from my place so it means about 40 minute drive by motorway.. I visit Cracow every year last time I visited on 31 st May 2015 and I did a lot of photos. So Enjoy my pictorial walk..
According to CCN Cracow is on the 7th position of cities in the world which worth visiting
Wawel Castle
7. Krakow (Poland)
Poland's second city has been experiencing a quiet cultural revolution, and it's finally getting the attention it deserves.
This World's Best debut, known for Gothic fortifications and a laid-back, blase attitude, has enchanted travelers and overcome even stalwart favorites like Istanbul and New York.
Perhaps it's the marvels of the Old City, like Rynek Glowny -- the largest Medieval square in Europe -- and the Royal Castle of Wawel that have captivated intrepid travelers seeking something unfamiliar out of their explorations abroad.
In the old Jewish quarter of Kazimierz, where synagogues that survived WWII still stand, there's a notably bohemian vibe taking hold in new hip spots like Bar Propaganda, appropriately outfitted with a bust of Lenin.
Some, however, will tell you it's the mystic chakhra stone of Wawel Hill that has bewitched the world.

DeleteGosia, thanks for sharing this view of the city. The name of the city invokes the time of the holocaust, so I'm curious as to whether there is an encampment such as Dachau in Germany.
ReplyDeleteLinda Cracow is definitely connected with Holocaust. Here was set Schindler List -fil. And the Suburb Kazimierz is a place where many Jews lived here and latet they were sent to Auschwitz Biirkenau Sad time. I had written one post about it on my blog .http://auschwitz.org/en/visiting/
