Pieniny National Park

The scenery here is unbelievable. Incredibly beautiful and, away from Trzy Korony and Sokolica, the paths are relatively quiet.

St Mary's Basilica

One of the most famous of Poland's churches, this Gothic structure features two striking towers of different heights and surprisingly richly decorated insight, mostly thanks to the vibrant polychromy by great Polish artist Jan Matejko. The greatest masterpiece is though the Main Altar by Veit Stoss - a late Gothic illustration for St. Mary's and Jesus life, including scenes of Mary's death and Assumption. Please note that the church, including Main Altar, is currently under long maintenance and renovation works, which may be of some inconvenience.

A most beautiful church and during the Christmas market period sands out like a beacon ,we had seen the film of the beautifully carved alter backdrop that the nazis stole in 1940 and was found in Nuremberg after the war , it was repaired ,restored and placed back in the church ,the Krakow square is a magical place ,but below it is a fantastic museum , that shouldn’t be missed ,

Wawel Royal Castle

Serving as a royal residence and the site where the country's rulers governed Poland for five centuries (1038-1596), this castle is a symbol of the independent Polish state and today contains a priceless collection of 16th-century Flemish tapestries, considered to be one of the largest in the world.

Definitely worth your visit, amazing detail and architecture especially see Lost Wawel and the armoury. Strangely you have to buy tickets for each section you are wanting to see and the queues are long so definitely use online if you can. Also strangely the cathedral is another ticket and another office. They should really just sell one ticket covers all. It would be a lot quicker!

Great and very intresting trip to Wawel and the Royal Cathedral on Wawel Hill Visiting the Royal Tombs to see the last resting place of Polish monarchs and national heroes also visiting the Pope John Paul II Cathedral Museum. Worth the visit but the ticket office on our visit was hectic.

Wieliczka Salt Mine

Reviewed By 622AndrewW - Moreton, United Kingdom

This is one of the best attractions we have ever been to see, you have a guided tour of the mine and see the sculptures created by some of the miners after their shifts had finished, lasts about two hours or more. If you could get to see all the mine workings you'd probably be down there for a couple of days as you only get to see about 3 percent of the mine.

Lake Morskie Oko

Reviewed By cdcheng - Muntinlupa, Philippines

We went November 2019. To our pleasant surprise, it snowed the day before. So, when we started our trek to Morskie Oko, everything was covered in fresh white powder snow. AMAZING!! Be prepared to spend at least 6 hours for the trip. This needs to be done during daylight. So, if you're coming in during November, suggest to start around 7am or even earlier as soon as there is sunlight. Going there: If you don't have a car and you're coming from Zakopane, there are buses that roam around the city that go to Morskie Oko, you can go to a bus stop along the street's main road and catch a bus there (or see the bus schedule). it takes around 30 minutes from the main city to the starting point of the trek. Going to/from Morskie Oko: From the parking lot, you can either walk (will take 1.5 - 2.5 hours per one way) or ride a horse carriage+short walk (50 pln going up, 30 pln going down - cuts walking time by more than half). Bring your own beverage because there is no stall along the road. in Morskie Oko - there are wonderful cafes / restaurants that can sell water, hot chocolate, hot wine, sandwiches etc. It makes up for a nice treat after that trek. Then, in MOrskie Oko, be amazed at the stunning view and you can actually walk around the lake perimeter! :)
