The Wawel Castle, Main Square, St. Mary's Church and Kazimierz District...Krakow, the city entered into the first list of the UNESCO World Heritage Sites, offers a wealth of history and architecture.

In 2019, the city of Kraków was granted the title of European Capital of Gastronomic Culture by the European Academy of Gastronomy. Krakow is the city living a full cultural life. Each year, the capital of Lesser Poland hosts nearly 100 festivals and other international-scale events.

Art galleries, narrow streets, canals, parks, and Baroque churches round out the city’s cultural attractions.

In summer, hike among the ibex at nearby Neiderhorn, or shop for watches in the town’s boutiques.
