KRAKÓW / CRACOW - one of the most beautiful cities in Central Europe, the Florence of the North, the old capital of Poland, home to kings and queens, the cultural and academic centre for centuries. Cracow prides itself for its beautiful architecture of the Old Town, the Wawel Castle situated on the bend of the Vistula river, Romanesque and Gothic churches, the mediaeval Market Square, numerous museums and art galleries. Coming here is a MUST.

The academic character of the city (the Jagiellonian University, founded in 1364 and about 10 other colleges of university level education with over 100 000 students during the academic year), lots of cultural events (music, theatre, opera) going on all year round plus... uncountable international restaurants, little cafes, pubs & wine bars with their unique atmosphere - all this makes Cracow one of the most enjoyable places to live and work in the world.

No wonder that the City was the Capital of Culture "Cracow 2000".

Cracow is also full of huge modern supermarkets with a wide selection of food that you may wish to buy, elegant shops or cheap flower & vegetable markets - and everything still 2 - 3 times CHEAPER than in Great Britain !
