Kraków

This is the pearl of Polish cities, and it is beautifully situated on both sides of the Vistula River. A long time ago Krakow was Poland's capital and the seat of the Monarchy. It is a magical city that has a lot of museums,theatres and churches. Buildings in Krakow representing every style of architecture. If you visit Krakow, you should go and see Wawel Hill. It is interesting and important place because it is known as the Polish Acropolis. Krakow is the seventh chakra of the earth and is also located on Wawel Hill. Also, you should visit the Royal Route that begins at the Barbacan and follows Florian Gate, Market Square, Florianska Street, Grodzka Street and Kanonicza Street and ends at the Royal Route. Something that is very interesting is the Main Market Square which is the heart of the city. You can find there St. Mary's Church from which hejnal is played every hour. Another interesting part of the city is Kazimierz which is the former Jewish quarter. You have there the Old Synagogue, Museum of history and Culture of Cracow Jewry. Kazimierz has a lot of cobblestone streets with cafes, restaurants and pubs. Definitely everyone should visit my beautiful and amazing city.
