About Kraków
Kraków: Royal Capital on the Vistula
Kraków served as Poland's royal capital for five centuries, and the legacy is visible in stone. Wawel Castle crowns a limestone hill above the Vistula River, its cathedral holding the tombs of Polish kings. Below, the Main Market Square (Rynek Główny) — the largest medieval square in Europe at 200 × 200 metres — anchors the Old Town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1978. The neighbourhood of Kazimierz, Kraków's historic Jewish quarter 1 km south of the square, draws visitors to its 16th-century synagogues, independent galleries, and weekend flea markets on Plac Nowy.
Where to Stay in Kraków
Most hotels cluster in the Old Town within walking distance of Wawel, or in Kazimierz for a quieter, more residential base. Podgórze, across the river, offers budget-friendly options near Schindler's Factory Museum. The Galeria Krakowska shopping centre sits directly beside Kraków Główny railway station, the main rail hub.
