Krakow’s architecture is an absolute delight. Essential visits include St Mary’s Basilica, the Sukiennice Cloth Hall, one of Europe’s oldest indoor markets, the National Museum and Waivel Cathedral.

Every visitor should take a boat trip on the Vistula to truly appreciate the beauty of one of Europe’s hidden gems.
City of Youth
Krakow has one of the youngest populations in Europe. 60% of the population is under 45 years of age, and as a result offers a huge concentration of bars, night clubs and youthful energy, and is more than a match for the more established European destinations.
