What to do in Kraków
Here are a few highlights to consider:
- The Old Town (Stare Miasto): A UNESCO World Heritage site, this area is home to the stunning Main Market Square (Rynek Główny), one of the largest medieval squares in Europe. Don’t miss the Cloth Hall (Sukiennice) and the hourly trumpet call (Hejnał Mariacki) from St. Mary’s Basilica. You can also explore the Rynek Underground Museum beneath the square.
- Wawel Royal Castle and Wawel Hill: The iconic seat of Polish kings, Wawel Hill offers magnificent views and is home to the Royal Castle and Wawel Cathedral. Strolling the grounds is a great way to spend an afternoon.
- Kazimierz (The Jewish Quarter): Known for its historical significance and unique atmosphere, Kazimierz is now a hub for contemporary culture with bohemian cafes, independent shops, street art, and lively nightlife.
- Day Trips: For attendees with more time, consider a half-day or full-day trip to the nearby Wieliczka Salt Mine (a subterranean world of tunnels and salt-carved chapels) or the deeply moving Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum.
- Networking & Relaxation: The city is full of excellent restaurants, traditional Polish pubs, and modern bars—perfect for unwinding and networking with fellow attendees after a day of sessions.
