Hi crossies!
Tomorrow i'm gonna book my flight to Poland which will be scheduled in the easter hollidays...
I'll be going to Krakow and staying there for 7-8 days.
Anyone who lives there or has been there and knows some nice places to visit or some nice bars/clubs to go to?
Maybe some cultural hotspots as well?

Thnx in advance :)

I live in krakow, best city to visit in poland. Market square is full of cafés, clubs, pubs so you wont miss anything. Take a look at wawel castle, market square, mariacki church, old city, boulevards and many others

Ofcourse i'll taste some wodka as well. I drank Wódka Zoladkowa Gorzka already and i realy liked it :)

The main square is very nice, lots of places to go. Found the Jewish district very nice as well, some pretty chilled out bars there, food you can eat there is also amazing. Wawel castle is nice to see on a sunny day!

Went last year and enjoyed our stay immensely!

For accommodation if you haven't booked it, check out Greg and Tom's Junior hostel. The showers in that joint were better than the one I have here at home. The market square is lovely, but check the back alley ways for cheaper restaurants, as your risk paying a fortune on the square itself. Some nice polish dishes were found for a low price in such a cafe.

For cultural hotspots check the square and the castle. You may also want to take a look at going to Auschwitz, as its quite close to the city (30/1hr or something iirc).

For a night out, I can't say we had our own experience as it was all organised for the hostel. However, we did have a VERY fun night out and it was great meeting people.

Enjoy yourself!
