We're on our way to this magnificent city! Anyone ever been to Kraków, Poland before? Anything we absolutely can't miss? Good places to eat? Scrapbooking stores to visit perhaps?? :)
Krakov is a great city, there's the old Jewish quarter, and s big square with amazing covered market. Lovely amber gifts. Auschwitz too, of course. It's a bus ride away. The Polish name is Ozwiezcim
...and the Castle Wawel and the University, which was founded in the mid-1300's. Beneath the Main Square they have a museum about the history of Kraków.
Magda Mizera (http://magdamizera.blogspot.se/) can probably help you out, as well -as she lives in Kraków. ;)
Been there too, it's such a lovely city! My favourite was the jewish quarter, i was touched by the little museum with photos and stories of people.. and oswiencim/auschwitz, of course. So sad but a must see! And yes, Magda Mizera could definitely help :) have fun!
A few hours later and you could be visiting my favorite place in that region which is Zakopane -with its gorgeous Tatra Moutains.Hope kids liked fire breathing Dragon under the Wawel castle:)
