滞在と発見
Krakow, by some called the hidden pearl of Eastern Europe, has got a very well-preserved and compact historic centre, where most of the sights are just a stone’s throw away from each other, and which is, together with the Jewish quarter Kazimierz and the royal castle Wawel, included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
In its centre is the Rynek Główny (the main market), by the way the largest medieval market square in Europe, as well as one of the most recognizable icons of the city and a architectonic gem: Sukiennice (Cloth Hall).
Krakow is a young, vibrant and vivid city due to its tradition as one of the oldest educational centres in Eastern Europe and a student population of some 170.000, and its Old Town is filled with over 400 pubs, bars, restaurant and clubs which create a unique atmosphere and charm.
