Kraków and around

What I show visiting teachers: the old town, the salt mine, and the day you have to set aside for Auschwitz. Comfortable shoes.

1. The Rynek and the trumpeter

   The hejnał from St Mary's tower every hour. It stops mid-note, and there's a story why.

   Kasia did it 10 Sep

   
2. Wawel Castle and Cathedral

   Then the dragon at the bottom of the hill, for the children.

   Kasia did it 11 Nov

3. The Wieliczka Salt Mine

   Chapels carved from salt, 135 metres down. Book the English tour.

   Kasia did it 21 Mar

4. Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial

   A full day. Book a guided visit well ahead. Go.

5. Kazimierz after dark

   The old Jewish quarter. Zapiekanka on Plac Nowy.

6. Kopiec Kościuszki

   On a clear day, the Tatras a hundred kilometres away.

   Kasia did it 13 Sep

   Kopiec Kościuszki
7. Nowa Huta by tram

   The socialist-realist town. Plac Centralny and a milk bar.

8. An obwarzanek from a street cart

   Poppy seed or salt.

The obwarzanek rule is correct and I will fight anyone at the cart about it.
