        0.15 Km from Wieliczka Salt Mine
        The Wieliczka Salt Mine (Polish: Kopalnia soli Wieliczka), located in the town of Wieliczka in southern Poland, lies within the Kraków metropolitan area. The mine, built in the 13th century, produced table salt continuously until 2007, as one of the world's oldest salt mines still in operation. From its beginning and throughout its existence, the Royal mine was run by the Żupy krakowskie Salt Mines. Commercial mining was discontinued in 1996 due to low salt prices and mine flooding. The mine's a...

      • Kraków
        It might have lost the title of capital city, but Krakow is still by far Poland’s most popular tourist destination, having absorbed far more than its fair share of striking history over the years, as well as literally millions of registered artworks. It’s a striking, interesting blend with so much to offer you could spend weeks exploring its intricacies. The fact that Krakow is one of only twelve cities to be listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site gives and idea of just how special this place is.

        500 years as the Royal capital left behind a rustic castle on the hill, a seven-century-old university, and reams of gothic influences. The entire city is enveloped with towering walls, as well as 55 imposing guard towers, and centered around a picturesque market square, the second largest in Europe, and still home to regular bustling trade.

        In 1000 Krakow got its own bishop, and in 1038 the city became Poland’s capital. Krakow’s Golden Age came by the end of the 15th century when it was the thriving metropolis of a vast and prosperous kingdom stretching from the Black Sea to the Baltic Sea

        Start in the old town, where startling gothic churches tower over intricate cobbled streets, or head to the Jewish quarter, which seems to lie quietly amongst its synagogues in reverence to its battered, tragic past. The Galicia Museum gives a depressing but necessary insight into the details of that particular branch of Polish history. You can take in the city on the whole from the lofty splendor of one of the ever-present horse and carriage set ups, or enjoy a side trip to the Museum of Pharmacy, and soak up the eclectic combinations of unpalatable looking elixirs and bizarre remedies.

        If you’re keen to go a bit further afield, the creepy depths of the Wieliczka Salt Mine draw you into the earth, while the magnificent forests to be found around the outskirts of the city make for a crisp and refreshing break from Krakow’s palatable buzz. And for a grim reminder of the unimaginable horrors that happened during World War 2, you can visit Auschwitz.

        Krakow’s history’s been tumultuous and strained at times, but the staple buildings and atmosphere that made it so special still stand tall, making this comfortably Poland’s most alluring destination, and arguably Eastern Europe’s, too. If you enjoy castles, fairytales and quirky yet haunting museums, you’re going to love this city.

      • Wadowice
        Wadowice is a small town of 19,000 inhabitants, located in Malopolskie west of Kraków. (No idea, why the TB map places "Wadowice, Poland" in the Czech Republic!) The town, otherwise hardly significant, has gained worldwide fame as the birthplace of Karol Wojtyła, the later Pope John Paul II. The house of the family where he was born has been turned into a museum and memorial, and together with the pretty baroque parish church, this place attracts large numbers of pilgrims and tourists.

        • Very interesting place. It's amazing to see something of this magnitude that humans made so many years ago. One downside though. You have to stay close to guide because the radios they use have a short range and therefore you cannot hear what they say if you get to far back. We weren't even at the back of our group and we only heard small pieces of what was said on the radio. So stick to the guide :)
        • Nice place to see, unique experience. Commuter train takes something like 15 minutes to get there and the mine itself is a short walk from the station. Tours are all guided. Note that there's a museum there as well. Museum is great, but not very popular, so, you'll probably will have a private excursion there, it worth the waiting. Entrance fee either included or not significant enough to remember.
        • AMAZING! I had no idea this stuff even existed until I went to Krakow and was encouraged by locals and expats to visit this place. It is so awesome, the ultimate salt lovers heaven and it's THE place to go for the sheer scale of what beauty and engineering people are capable of. A very uplifting end to the one day tour with Krakow Direct after visiting Auschwitz 1 and 2.
        • If you like Mining you have to go and if you don't you have to go and see it for yourself. That's no way to describe how amazing this place really is. There's human activity from 6 thousand years ago in the area driven by the salt rocks. Prepare yourself for a tour in the human history. It's very save.
        • I went there with a friend early on in my Kraków trip. Now I will say that this is a must see tour while in the area! It's awe inspiring to go through the mines! ...but be prepared to feel like a sheep, cause you are herded like one through there and they will try to sell you stuff along the way! All that is to be expected though as this is a tourist gold mine for the area!
