Krakow 🇵🇱

Krakow Old Town (Stare Miasto) Address - Right in the city center, you really can’t miss it Highlights - Massive main square, St. Mary’s Basilica, street performers, and cafés where you can sit forever for the price of a coffee Rating - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Totally walkable, full of energy, and honestly — you don’t need a plan. Just wander. Wawel Castle Address - Wawel 5, just a short walk from the Old Town Highlights - Stunning views, royal chambers, and a fire-breathing dragon statue (seriously) Rating - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Entry to the grounds is free, and the paid parts are surprisingly cheap for what you get. Kazimierz District Address - South of the Old Town, 10–15 minutes by foot Highlights - Jewish heritage, vintage shops, artsy cafés, and late-night zapiekanka (Polish-style baguette pizza) Rating - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Feels like the soul of the city. Everything’s affordable, from food to second-hand treasures. Planty Park Address - Circles the Old Town like a green belt Highlights - Shady paths, benches, and perfect people-watching — completely free Rating - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Great place to chill with a cheap ice cream or takeaway coffee and just soak it all in. Milk Bars (Bar Mleczny) Address - Scattered all around Kraków; Bar Mleczny Targowy is a solid one Highlights - Traditional Polish meals for the price of a snack — dumplings, soups, pancakes Rating - ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Food like grandma might make, for under $5. Nothing fancy, but so satisfying. #europeonbudget #travel #myitinerary
