The hike is spectacular!! You can hike the peak from Slovakia and/or Poland. We ascended from Slovakia and descended in Poland which was amazing 14 hours hike (with very many stops). Slovak side is physically easier and less scenic, while Polish side is much steeper and very narrow at a few places which causes some congestions as in generally this is one of the most popular and busiest hikes in the region. Good hiking gear is a must, but there is no need for ropes or so. Last few hundred meters to the top require scrambling. Views are absolutely fantastic!!

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

Galeria znajduje się w głównej siedzibie Muzeum Historycznego w Sanoku - w królewskim zamku w centrum miasta. Jest to największa na świecie wystawa prac tego artysty (ok. 600 sztuk).
Words fail to sufficiently describe the incredible collection of works of Beksinski. Items ranged from his early works - including photography and sculptures - to his iconic paintings and late digital explorations until his death. Highly recommended for anyone interested in the modern art scene of late 20th century.

Explore the dark face of the city. Take the challenge and let yourself feel the fear, which has never been so real. Visit rooms haunted by lost souls, and be sure that you will remember forever things which are hidden at the cursed floor at Florianska 6. LOST SOULS ALLEY - Poland's first interactive museum devoted to the basic instinct of fear. Entire floor, which is inspired by horror movies.
Walking into this place I had no idea what I was about to experience as it was booked as a surprise for me hen do (I know I’m weird). It was so amazing I wish I would give it more stars! A must for any person who loves a horror movie. It was like being in one! I would highly recommend if you’re looking for something different to do in Kraków. If anyone is unsure you can leave at any time (which my Sister did as she couldn’t cope). Absolutely brilliant, the highlight of my hen!

The best place ever, during the trip thru the polish mountains we found a great place at Grybów, near Nowy Sącz. Awesome owners rebuilt medieval stronghold, they spent 20 years doing that but the effect is beyond expectations. We were charmed, we can felt just like go back to medieval. The audio guidebook is just great and funny and available in English and Polish.

A blast from the past! The only one in Poland private collection of over 130 arcade games available on Free Play. Museum presents history of entertainment. Oldest table game dates back to 1936. Main focus though is placed on 80' and 90' classics. One cannot miss Pac Man, Galaga, Mortal Kombat and dozens of driving and shooting games. Great for kids and adults. Perfect for a rainy day. It is a time machine that will transport you back to your happy childhood memories. Cannot be missed while in Krakow - only 15 min tram ride from the city center. There is also big free parking in front.
I visited the museum for my birthday while visiting Krakow. It was my idea of heaven. Some great classic games from my youth such as house of the dead, time crisis and my personal favourite the simpsons arcade game. I spent a good number of hours there but easily could have spent all day. If I ever make it back to Krakow I will be sure to visit again. This was definitely my happy place!

The Salt Mine Bochnia is the oldest salt mine in Poland. The beginnings of the Bochnia mine as an excavating plant date back to 1248. Being a royal facility, the mine generated a huge income. In 1368, King Casimir the Great issued a document referred to as the Saltworks Statute. It defined the organizational and legal principles for selling salt. The oldest Bochnia mining shafts are the Sutoris and Gazaris shafts. The Bochnia mine and the Sutoris Shaft that are mentioned in the legend on St. Kinga’s ring. The mine developed rapidly in 15th and 16th centuries. More shafts are constructed at that time, i.e. Regis , Bochneris, and Campi. In 17th century, due to wars and an economic decline, the plant’s development slowed down. Visitors to the Bochnia Salt Mine discover the oldest and the most beautiful excavations including the August and Sienkiewicz Levels, the Dobosz Inter-Level.Visitors explore the route on foot and can cover a part of the distance by a tourist train or by boat.
We took four hours excursion, with bout trip to discover salt mine. English tour was earlier in the morning and only once a day, so our tour was in polish. In summary its the trip to take, with one note - more suitable for children 8+. Four hours underground is difficult for smaller. We were very lucky because one of our guides spoke very good English and gave him best to translate as much as possible even it wasn't his duty. Anyway, if you would like to take full of that, try to take English tour, because maybe you are not so lucky as us, and most of the shared stories/explanations not understandable.

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.

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! :)
