Three days in Kraków lets you explore the key sightseeing districts in the centre of the city and to head out of town for at least one day trip. This is the ideal way to make the most of three days in Kraków.Don’t miss the castle Wawel on a hill in the center of Krakow, next to the River Vistula. That’s where you see the first signs of the establishment of the city in the 9th century. Kazimierz lies just below Kraków’s Old Town, with Podgórze on the other side of the Vistula river. Historically considered the Jewish quarter of the city, Kazimierz has an atmosphere all of its own and is a great place to eat and drink. Podgórze is up and coming, with some of the most exciting new museums and galleries. Kazimierz remains one of Kraków’s liveliest and loveliest districts. Retaining the soul of Jewish Kraków, it is home to some pretty buildings, cobbled streets, and numerous interesting attractions. Kazimierz is also one of the city’s best areas for food and drink. Many tours also include some excellent museums in Podgórze, on the other side of the river. In Krakow’s old town, there are countless churches and other religious buildings, and Poles are generally considered to be very religious. Up to 95% of the population is believed to be religious, and most churches are open for visits also from tourists. There is a lot to see and do in Kraków. This four-day schedule includes many key attractions, focusing on the Old Town, a day trip to either Auschwitz or the Wieliczka Saltmines, the ‘socialist realist’ area of Nowa Huta, as well as the Kazimierz and Podgórze districts.
