Dragon’s den, “czakra” energy place on the Wawel Castle and numerous legends and tales will move you back to times of the Middle Ages splendor. The Royal-Cesarean city situated by the Vistula river will fascinate you with its history, architecture and contemporary temperament.

Kazimierz – The former Jewish district is now a part of Cracow and together with the Cracow’s Market Square architectonical complex is inscribed on the INESCO World Heritage List. Kazimierz, with its synagogues, praying houses and bohemian character is a unique Jewish Heritage Site in Europe. Nowa Huta – Social-realist urban complex build on the outskirts of Krakow in 1949.
