Known for its architecture and history, Krakow is rightly seeing a resurgence in tourism. While there are so many things to do in Krakow, for most tourists, they have to narrow their scope and choose what they can fit into their schedule.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"listheadline\"><span class=\"keep\">1<\/span>Wawel Hill<\/h2>\n<p>Boasting both the Wawel Castle, Wawel Castle Museum as well as the Wawel Cathedral, this should be tourists&#8217; first stop on a day where they can simply wander and take in all that&#8217;s on offer.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"listheadline\"><span class=\"keep\">2<\/span>Jewish Quarter<\/h2>\n<p>A section of the city that&#8217;s been revitalized since the end of WWII, it&#8217;s rich in history and now flourishing as one of the busiest parts of Krakow, night or day.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"listheadline\"><span class=\"keep\">3<\/span>Church of Saints Peter and Paul<\/h2>\n<p>Nestled deep in the Old Town, the Church of Saints sits in front of a square, lined with life-sized statues of the Apostles. As an architectural accomplishment, you don&#8217;t have to be religious to appreciate it.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"listheadline\"><span class=\"keep\">4<\/span> Auschwitz<\/h2>\n<p>Though outside the city, Auschwitz is a must-visit and not just for history buffs. The concentration camp of Auschwitz is a whole day trip.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"listheadline\"><span class=\"keep\">5<\/span>Cloth Hall<\/h2>\n<p>Dominating the Old Town, this structure is the best-preserved mall in the world. At Christmas, the cloth hall is stuffed with vendors during the famous Christmas market of Krakow.<\/p>\n<p><!--nextpage--><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"listheadline\"><span class=\"keep\">6<\/span>Wieliczka Salt Mines<\/h2>\n<p>Though this may sound boring, the salt mine tour delves deep underground where you&#8217;ll see salt-carved chapels and an underground lake. Pictures are encouraged!<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"listheadline\"><span class=\"keep\">7<\/span>St. Mary&#8217;s Basilica<\/h2>\n<p>Sitting in the main square of the Old Town, the Basilica is bursting with color from the minute you step inside. Outside, at every hour, the guard play Hejnal at the four cardinal points of the church.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"listheadline\"><span class=\"keep\">8<\/span>Oskar Schindler&#8217;s Factory<\/h2>\n<p>Made famous by the movie &#8220;Schindler&#8217;s List&#8221;, you can visit the real factory which has been transformed into a museum.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"listheadline\"><span class=\"keep\">9<\/span>The Barbican<\/h2>\n<p>Built around 1498, this is the only part of the city walls that remain. Opposite is St. Florian&#8217;s gate and the two are the only structures still standing from the city&#8217;s defenses.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"listheadline\"><span class=\"keep\">10<\/span>Rynek Glowny<\/h2>\n<p>The main square of Krakow, the Rynek Glowny is the heart of the Old Town. It holds the Cloth Hall, St. Mary&#8217;s Basilica along with numerous shops and restaurants. It&#8217;s impossible to miss on your tour of Krakow.<\/p>\n<p>With all of the architecture and history built into Krakow, it&#8217;s a wonder the city isn&#8217;t more overrun with tourists. There is too much to see and do in one trip but the prices won&#8217;t preclude a second visit. And once you&#8217;ve left, you&#8217;ll wonder what else you&#8217;ve missed. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><p>Known for its architecture and history, Krakow is rightly experiencing a renaissance of tourism.
