  • The #wawelcastle is a must visit site when visiting #krakow. If you’re not a museum goer suffice to go up the hill and enjoy the gardens, the cathedral, the inner courtyard and the terrace with a view upon the #vistulariver #travelslow #travelsmart #travelguide #krakowinyourpocket #krakow101 #visitkrakow #visitpoland #polandexperience #krakowexperience #traveleurope #travelpoland #sightseeing #lovetotravel #seekrakow #poland🇵🇱 #traveldestination #putthephonedown
  • The spiritual centre of #Łódź, Plac Wolności (Freedom Square) is the place from which Industrial Age Lodz grew, and where you’ll still find traces of the city’s glory days.

  • Linking the districts of #kazimierz and #podgorze, the Father Bernatek Footbridge was opened on September 2010 and has played a key role in the revitalization of the areas it connects. The last bridge that stood in the same place was dismantled back in 1925. #travelslow #travelsmart #travelguide #krakowinyourpocket #krakow101 #visitkrakow #visitpoland #travelpoland #traveleurope #krakowexperience #polandexperience #lovetotravel #travelawesome #travelholic #travelbook #inyourpocket #seekrakow #igerskrakow #polska🇵🇱 #putthephonedown #wanderlust #sightseeing #travel
