Krakow is not just Wawel and the vast Rynek Główny.

The narrow streets of the former Jewish quarter, Kazimierz, the banks of the Vistula and the hidden gems off the main tourist trail are also well worth a visit. You can easily explore the historic centre on foot, and the city is perfect for a relaxing long weekend.

What’s more, Kraków can also serve as a good starting point for trips to Auschwitz or the Wieliczka Salt Mines.
