Krakow - Europe's hidden gem
Go East, young man…Krakow, Poland’s second city is fast becoming one of central Europe’s essential tourist destinations, offering a heady mix of history and energetic youth culture, stunning architecture and sheer joie-de-vivre. The city boasts numerous UNESCO World Heritage Sites including the delightful medieval Old Town, the Main Market Square (Europe’s second largest city square, after St Peter’s in Rome) and Waivel Castle that overlooks the city. Light years away from the traditional image of Poland, Krakow is a flourishing business city and centre of academic excellence at the crossroads of Europe, with a population of just over 750,000, swelled by over 190,000 students at its seven universities. Krakow is a city that encaptures the history of Poland and celebrates an exciting future – Come and see for yourself!
Know your history…Located on the banks of the Vistula river, Krakow was capital of Poland from 1038-1596, and administrative centre of the Gran Duchy of Krakow from 1846-1918. Krakow was the motor of Poland’s “Golden Age” in the 15th and 16th centuries, an important centre of trade, printing, literature and art, and is home to Poland’s oldest seat of learning: the Krakow Academy, founded in 1364 (today known as Jagiellonian University). Krakow was also the focus for progressive political ideas in Poland in the 18th and 19th centuries under the occupation of Russian, Habsburg and Prussian empires, and a city whose visionary spirit survived the traumas of the 20th century. Famous former Krakow residents include the astronomer Copernicus and young Catholic priest Karol Wojtyla, better known as Pope John Paul II.
Beauty and EnergyKrakow’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. Other highlights include Kazimierz, Krakow’s historic Jewish quarter, and the cloistered courtyards of the Old Town, brimming with cafes, bars and restaurants. Every visitor should take a boat trip on the Vistula to truly appreciate the beauty of one of Europe’s hidden gems.
