Krakow's Rynek Glowny Central Square
Upon pulling into the historic station in Krakow, you will be greeted by a professional local guide ready to lead you through a city that miraculously escaped the destruction of World War II. Your exploration follows the prestigious Royal Route, a path once trodden by monarchs, leading you past the architectural elegance of the Slowacki Theatre and the hallowed halls of the Jagiellonian University, where luminaries like Nicolaus Copernicus once studied.
As you step into the Main Market Square, the sheer scale of the largest medieval plaza in Europe will take your breath away. Here, the iconic Cloth Hall stands as a testament to centuries of trade, while the trumpeter’s signal echoes from the towers of St. Mary’s Church. Inside the basilica, you can witness the intricate beauty of the Veit Stoss altarpiece, a Gothic masterpiece of unparalleled detail. The guided portion of your day culminates atop Wawel Hill.
