We are staying on the Royal Way. It is a delightful stroll down to the main square of the old city. We explored the churches, museums and even the shops.
We have been under the square to the Krakow Underground Museum, starting under the Cloth Hall and extending out under the square for 4000 square metres. Holograms, artefacts and interactive screens tell the story of medieval Krakow.
We visited Wawel Castle, home of the Polish kings with its multitude of museums. We inspected the Treasury and Armoury, the State Rooms and the Royal Apartments as well as the cathedral, the bell tower and the crypt where the kings of Poland were interred.
Across the Vistula River, we visited the museum on the site of Schindler's factory and walked through the old Jewish Quarter.

Watch out for the air pollution, I hear it's dreadful.
Are you going to visit the salt mine? It looks really interesting!
