Kraków
Poland – Central Europe
Kraków is one of Europe’s most beautiful and historic cities, known for its perfectly preserved medieval core and vibrant cultural scene. At its heart lies the vast Main Market Square, surrounded by elegant townhouses, cafés, and the iconic St. Mary’s Basilica. In November, the city feels peaceful and atmospheric, with crisp air and fewer tourists, making it ideal for unhurried exploration.
The Wawel Castle and Cathedral overlook the Vistula River, while the former Jewish Quarter, Kazimierz, offers cobbled streets, bohemian cafés, and poignant history. Many visitors also take a day trip to Auschwitz-Birkenau or the stunning Wieliczka Salt Mine. As winter approaches, hearty Polish dishes like pierogi, żurek soup, and mulled wine are perfect for warming up after sightseeing.
