Poland in my humble opinion is one of the best countries in Europe. And the fact that it's constantly evolving, it wont be long before it catches up with the better known destinations in the region.
Been there twice, I really liked the vibe of the city, the underground bars, the views, the people were friendly. Also worth visiting, if you're in Krakow is Wieliczka, it's not far from Krakow and there's one incredible salt mine.
Couldn’t agree more! We loved everything about Kraków! We will have to check out Wieliczka next time, the salt mine sounds awesome! Thanks for checking out the video 😊
@@Robertino12 I also think that Poland is located in Central Europe, but people from Western Europe as well as people from the USA, etc. think that Poland is an eastern country, so I will not cause them any problems. It always makes me laugh when people say that Europe has no center :D when America has it, Africa has it, Asia has it but Europe doesn't have it, their logic is strange but oh well
I was born in this beautiful , amazing city . My lovely Krakow . Long time ago I came to Canada but I never forget where I’m from . Thank you so much for the beautiful video , which really touched my heart. I feel like I’m walking with you Florianska street, Rynek Glowny , Mariacki church and of course Wawel castle and other places. Im happy you enjoyed and you like it. I hope soon I can visit my city. I love ❤️ you Krakow I miss you.❤️🤗👏🏼🥰
So happy you enjoyed the video and that it made you feel like you were back in Kraków! We miss the city already after a few months, so we definitely understand the nostalgia! Thanks again for watching 😊
Some clarification: John Paul II isn't from Cracow, he was born in Wadowice I'm glad u enjoyed ur visit here :) Also dragon didnt explode bcz of sulfur - Because of sulfur he was thirsty af and then he drank so much water and eventually exploded.
It's so fantastic you guys promote Krakow and Poland! Most people have no idea how beautiful is here and great food. Also no problem with language- english is very popular here. Have a great time here! Cheers❤
Hello! just for your information Saint John Paul II was born in Wadowice (50 kilometers southwest of Krakow). I was there in 2016 during World Youth Day with Pope Francis. We went to Wadowice to see the city where our beloved Saint was born. What used to be his house is now a museum.
John Paul II was born not in Krakow but in Wadowice. Nice views from Kraków, but it is definitely a small fragment of everything that Kraków offers. A wonderful stay in this wonderful city!
I love your video style! Guys well made video 😁 (Edit: i told this to Norwegian tourist, *poland doesn't have an one landmark, you have to see many places of all around Poland, learning the history, woven in it keeping this true gem of a country, together.)
Absolutely! It was truly one of our favorite places we have visited in Europe! We are so pleased that a local approves of our video 😁👍 thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for watching all of the videos! You must be so excited for Poland, wish we were going with you!! It’s so beautiful and the food is spectacular 😊
Welcome to the club! Very informative! No other vlogger points at this magical way of exploring the town, namely, by walking along the Planty to see Barbakan and to veer into the Old Town via St Florian's Gate into Floriańska Street.
So excited to hear that you liked the video! That was definitely our favorite walking route, magical is a perfect word to describe it! Thanks for watching 😄
About the dragon (not sure who told you this, but I'm from Krakow and this is what I've been told my whole life ;)) - it was a shoemaker called Dratewka (diminuitive of "dratwa" which means rope/shoelace or something of the sort), not a shepherd, and the dragon got really thirsty after that sulfur-rich sheep and it started drinking from the Vistula river, unable to quench it's thirst, to the point where it exploded from all the ingested water. Minor detail, but I think it makes it even more ridiculous. Anyway, great video. All the best:).
Hahaha, that does add a lot more context to the story 😂 thanks for the info! We were trying to translate it from Polish and might have messed up a few details 😅
Рік тому+4
Poland is becoming a power and a leader in Europe. Beautiful country good food. Cheap and safe :)
1 zloty equals about 23 cents US. The coffee and cardamom buns were about 9 USD total, and that’s honestly considered an expensive place in Kraków 😂 average meal for 2 at a restaurant is usually around 15-20 USD, sometimes less! We will be releasing a video that is all about Kraków’s affordability 😁
@@MaxandSidney If you know where to eat, you can have a big, filling lunch for PLN 20 (e.g. in the canteen of the Frycz Academy, it is open to the public), i.e. soup, main course and a drink for about 4.80 USD. :D
More than Nick nacks in the cloth hall. Beautiful hand made arts and crafts, many from the mountain regions... including woodwork, textiles and Jewellery.
*Small correction to the Wawel dragon story. The legend about the dragon, from what I remember, said that after eating sulfur, the dragon felt terrible thirst, so he drank water from the nearby river - (vistula) until the dragon burst. :P
So glad you liked it! We had an amazing time in Poland and wanted to share our experience. We have several more videos on the way in the next few weeks! 😁👍
So glad you liked the video, thanks for watching! We were there in October last year, it was so beautiful with the Autumn leaves! And the weather was pleasantly mild. Definitely a great time to visit!
You can take pictures inside the Wawel castle (which is not a religious place of course) and you should have visited the castle's courtyard. It's free and it's stunning.
For a moment in your video you can see the Wawel Cathedral. Do you know that on 17 January 1734, during the coronation of August III as king of Poland, the first two movements of Johann Sebastian Bach's Mass in B minor were performed under the baton of Grzegorz Gerwazy Gorczycki? /*/ /*/ From 1736, Bach held the title of court composer to the King of Poland and Elector of Saxony. Some claim that another work by Bach was performed during the coronation. However, it is difficult to imagine that Lutheran sacred music could be performed at a Catholic ceremony, during the coronation of a Catholic king in Catholic Poland.
There’s a little mistake! The Pope actually is from Wadowice, south of Kraków. The town is stunning and famous from it. But it was a Great video after all! Cheers!
If you would like to see more polish archtecture, buildings you should go to Lwów(Lvov), Wilno(Vilnius), Tarnopol, Stanisławów, Odessa, Petersburg, Kamieniec Podolski, Grodno, Brześć.
You didn't visit St. Mary Church that is one of the most beautiful churches in the world. Also In Wawel castle there is not only church but also royal apartments and other interesting exhibitions.
In fact, the ending of the legend of the Wawel dragon was this: when the dragon ate a sheep stuffed with sulfur, he felt that it was burning inside and began to drink water from the Vistula. He drank so much that he burst ;]
The Pope was born in Wadowice but studied in Crakovia and was archbishop there before he was elected to the papacy. The Mariacki and the Wawel Cathedral are Polish national treasures indeed.
@@MaxandSidney It is 20 km from Gdańsk to the biggest medieval castle in Europe in Malbork ://www.gov.pl/photo/format/72c3c59f-b336-4194-850c-1fb7ddb106e7/resolution/1920x810
Wanna see condenced real gothic in Poland - visit Toruń - Old Town - the Town of Copernicus (almost 800 years old). Try traditional gingerbread cakes - but from the original maker "Kopernik" (many others just Torun's followers , but not that good as original Kopernik's).
I will tell you a story about the bugle call in Krakow, which is interrupted in the middle and played every hour. Considered a legend or maybe not quite. Two friends who knew each other from college, when World War II broke out, fate threw one to the Polish army in the west and the other to the Polish army formed in Russia and later this army under the command of general Anders got to the west of Europe and the allies went through Kazakhstan, Iraq to Italy the one who came from Kazakhstan told the other the story that happened to him. Wasko had its own military band and the local authorities of the city in Kazakhstan turned to the Poles with a request that the military band would play for their inhabitants and the army would play to the joy of the inhabitants. At one point, the trumpeter played the bugle call from St. Mary's tower, the one from Krakow, and suddenly, as before, people were clapping and rejoicing, suddenly after hearing the bugle call, everyone fell silent and suddenly everyone dispersed in silence. The author tried to find out what happened, but no one wanted to say, only one woman explained to him what had happened. Their legend said that in the old days, when the Mongols plundered Europe during the siege of the city, someone killed a trumpeter in their opinion calling for prayer, which imposed misfortune on the nation and only the lifting of the curse will take place when in their country the trumpeter from this country will play again which has come true, so is it just a legend?
Polish beer industry and market are booming nowadays and basically there are maaaany, like hundreds of craft breweries. Although we're known for vodka and mass production beer like Tyskie, Żywiec, Okocim, Książęce etc., Polish craft beer is way better than those. It comes with a price ofc. When you wanna get wasted, you buy a six-/eight-pack of Tyskie but when you prefer tasting than getting wasted, you definitely buy some pretty dope IPA, APA or wheat beer, or other types. FYI we also invented the Grodziskie style of beer - just saying because maybe you'd like to try it. Poland is actually the 8th biggest producer of beer in the world. When it comes to the production per person in top 10 countries, only Germany is higher than us in the world ladder. Personally, as a beer lover, I like Polish, German and Czech beer the most, the rest is no match for them.
We didn't realize Poland was such a craft beer hub! We LOVE craft beer, this is definitely a reason we have to come back. One of many reasons! Thanks for watching 😊
"Very tasty Polish beer" Okocim xD Man, stop it, you're killing me :D There are many great craft beers in Poland, though most of them are still produced by rather small breweries. If you wanna good and tasty - go for that. No offense, but big-brand lagers are just plain boring because of how staple they became (though it seems you had weizen, so you're safe ;) ). In Kraków there is a Bropub near Wawel, that has quite wide variety of local craft beers - I highly recommend visiting them!
Quand j'avais 17 ans, mon père m'a emmené à Cracovie. Il m'est arrivé une chose étrange là-bas ! Un gros chien gris est sorti d'une rue en courant et s'est précipité vers moi ! Il avait une grosse carapace dure sur le dos, comme une sorte de sale tortue ! J'étais complètement gelé et je ne pouvais même pas bouger de terreur ! Et le gros chien m'a couru dessus, droit sur ma tête ! Il a parcouru mon ventre jusqu'à ma poitrine puis jusqu'à mon cou et a ouvert sa grande bouche ! L'odeur de sa bouche était horrible, comme celle d'une tortue bouillie avec des œufs d'oie ! Il prenait déjà la tête de mon bébé dans sa bouche pleine de grosses dents jaunes quand mon père est venu et a pris la tortue par la carapace et l'a tordue de toutes ses forces pour qu'elle tombe et que la cavité corporelle et les organes soient visibles. Du sang partout ! Le chien a crié et l'a laissé partir. Il s'est enfui et ne m'a plus dérangé. Seules la grande carapace, qui puait si terriblement, et le sang de la tortue restaient à terre. Pendant ce temps, le chien s'est enfui. La police nous a trouvés, j'étais sous le choc, mais mon père ne pouvait pas prendre soin de moi. Ensuite nous avons préféré ne pas aller à Cracovie.
We were more so referring to the value of the travel experience. But obviously we don't know the average wages in Poland and should have considered this when talking about its affordability
Kraków jest piękny tylko na Rynku. Tak to jest zaniedbanym miastem. Prezydent miasta nie robi praktycznie nic, żeby miasto stawało się piękniejsze. W innych miastach, miasteczkach wygląda to zupełnie inaczej. Tam bardzo się dba, upiększa, odnawia domy.
Właśnie ja byłem w Krakowie kilka razy. Architektura starych budynków bardzo ładna ale zaniedbane strasznie. Właśnie chce się gdzieś przeprowadzić z Rzeszowa i Gdańsk wydaje się rozsądniejszym wyborem
@@1.618-o2y no właśnie. Nie wiem dlaczego i gdzie te pieniądze z budżetu miasta Kraków. Władze miasta nic nie robią. Podobnie jest w Wiśle. Miasto zarabia dużo pieniędzy z turystyki, a tam nic nie zmieniło się od 1995 roku. Nawet nie pomalują balustrad, poręczy nad Wisłą. Takie Mikołajki na Mazurach, a są bardzo ładnie zadbane, odnowione. Ile razy będziesz na Rynku Głównym w Krakowie? Będziesz mieszkał w jakiejś zaniedbanej kamienicy, w smutnej rzeczywistości. Lepiej Trójmiasto, Gdańsk i morze :)
@@1.618-o2y Rzeszów to i tak jest sto razy lepsze miasto jak Tarnów. Kraków w sumie też.Na pewno w tych miastach łatwiej o pracę bo w Tarnowie to już jest tragedia.
I don't see anything interesting in Poland and Krakow. Believe me - I've lived here for 50 years... It might be interesting to have islands in the Pacific or the Caribbeans, not some old country in the middle of Europe with a thousand years of history. Boredom! P.S. It's autumn in Poland now??? I look out the window and see spring... hmmm, I should probably drink less vodka...
I feel sarcasm here. Unfortunately many foreigners think it's a cold poor country filled with communist architecture and when they come here they get surprised.
@@diablo4624 This is a very complex problem... You see - the Portuguese, Spaniards, French, Dutch and English sailed the seas and oceans and took cool places for themselves. Now they can speak their language there... and our kings had no sense fighting with some idiot Teutonic Knights... Lithuanians and Tartars helped us....15,07,1410.... Half of Europe was here... Americans promised they would be but no one saw any...
@@robertzielinski2475 People still think wrong - politically. Not culturally or geographically... Once a Frenchman asked me about the sea - I said that the sea is 600-700 km from me. He said, "That's why you still use horses for transportation." in July he came in a down jacket...:))): p "winter jacket"
@@cenobith73 I hope he was surprised positively... Also why people don't update their knowledge about visiting country before taking a journey? Ignorance or something else?
Poland in my humble opinion is one of the best countries in Europe. And the fact that it's constantly evolving, it wont be long before it catches up with the better known destinations in the region.
Couldn’t agree more! We were absolutely blown away and we want to visit again so bad! I’m sure there is so much more to discover outside of Kraków

Poland is hidden and soo underrated gem. Everyone only goes to Paris or Rome or madrid forgeting about how beautiful is eastern europe.
Definitely! We were blown away by Poland, we definitely want to come back and see more of it! 🇵🇱👍
since Poland is eastern europe is central europe map science later write something
@@Robertino12 I also think that Poland is located in Central Europe, but people from Western Europe as well as people from the USA, etc. think that Poland is an eastern country, so I will not cause them any problems.

Poland is located in Central Europe and it's belonged to western (latin) culture since 996!

For a moment in your video you can see the Wawel Cathedral. Do you know that on 17 January 1734, during the coronation of August III as king of Poland, the first two movements of Johann Sebastian Bach's Mass in B minor were performed under the baton of Grzegorz Gerwazy Gorczycki? /*/
/*/ From 1736, Bach held the title of court composer to the King of Poland and Elector of Saxony. Some claim that another work by Bach was performed during the coronation. However, it is difficult to imagine that Lutheran sacred music could be performed at a Catholic ceremony, during the coronation of a Catholic king in Catholic Poland.
Definitely didn’t know that! That’s definitely an interesting contrast!

"Very tasty Polish beer"
Okocim xD
Man, stop it, you're killing me :D There are many great craft beers in Poland, though most of them are still produced by rather small breweries. If you wanna good and tasty - go for that. No offense, but big-brand lagers are just plain boring because of how staple they became (though it seems you had weizen, so you're safe ;) ). In Kraków there is a Bropub near Wawel, that has quite wide variety of local craft beers - I highly recommend visiting them!
@Myname Isunavailable Yeah, it's ok. But it certainly does NOT deserve the kind of enthusiasm and introduction it got :D
Cadogantes@ Nie histeryzuj.
We will have to check out those small breweries next time! Definitely willing to try many more Polish beers! Thanks for watching 😁
When was this. The weather is no Nice.

i suggest you to go to Wisła Kraków game :)
We will have to add that to the list for next time! Sounds like fun! 😁
@@MaxandSidney yes, very!
In general everything seems nice but 40 zł for two buns and coffe is a lot of money
It was a more pricey café, but the quality was top notch! Thanks for watching 😊
ostatnio same filmy z krakowem mi wyskakują kekw
Thank you for watching ours! 😁👍
Pope came from WADOWICE
Wadowice, okay! We saw that on the map very near Kraków. Thanks!
Nah it is not :∆
Kraków is mostly a place for tourists to create their content on social media
You guys should look after Poland somewhere else
Where would you suggest to go in Poland?
The Pope PJ II was born in Wadowice not in Krakow.

Quand j'avais 17 ans, mon père m'a emmené à Cracovie. Il m'est arrivé une chose étrange là-bas ! Un gros chien gris est sorti d'une rue en courant et s'est précipité vers moi ! Il avait une grosse carapace dure sur le dos, comme une sorte de sale tortue ! J'étais complètement gelé et je ne pouvais même pas bouger de terreur ! Et le gros chien m'a couru dessus, droit sur ma tête ! Il a parcouru mon ventre jusqu'à ma poitrine puis jusqu'à mon cou et a ouvert sa grande bouche ! L'odeur de sa bouche était horrible, comme celle d'une tortue bouillie avec des œufs d'oie ! Il prenait déjà la tête de mon bébé dans sa bouche pleine de grosses dents jaunes quand mon père est venu et a pris la tortue par la carapace et l'a tordue de toutes ses forces pour qu'elle tombe et que la cavité corporelle et les organes soient visibles. Du sang partout ! Le chien a crié et l'a laissé partir. Il s'est enfui et ne m'a plus dérangé. Seules la grande carapace, qui puait si terriblement, et le sang de la tortue restaient à terre. Pendant ce temps, le chien s'est enfui. La police nous a trouvés, j'étais sous le choc, mais mon père ne pouvait pas prendre soin de moi. Ensuite nous avons préféré ne pas aller à Cracovie.
Tourist selfies with added music, sorry.....Still-welcome!
Funny 😆 thanks for watching!
2:28 Kraków is not ancient ;)
😁👍
!:21 affordable prices for who? for westeners yes for polish people nope.
We were more so referring to the value of the travel experience. But obviously we don't know the average wages in Poland and should have considered this when talking about its affordability
Kraków jest piękny tylko na Rynku. Tak to jest zaniedbanym miastem. Prezydent miasta nie robi praktycznie nic, żeby miasto stawało się piękniejsze. W innych miastach, miasteczkach wygląda to zupełnie inaczej. Tam bardzo się dba, upiększa, odnawia domy.
Sorry to hear that! Everything that we saw was so nice!
Właśnie ja byłem w Krakowie kilka razy. Architektura starych budynków bardzo ładna ale zaniedbane strasznie. Właśnie chce się gdzieś przeprowadzić z Rzeszowa i Gdańsk wydaje się rozsądniejszym wyborem
@@1.618-o2y no właśnie. Nie wiem dlaczego i gdzie te pieniądze z budżetu miasta Kraków. Władze miasta nic nie robią. Podobnie jest w Wiśle. Miasto zarabia dużo pieniędzy z turystyki, a tam nic nie zmieniło się od 1995 roku. Nawet nie pomalują balustrad, poręczy nad Wisłą. Takie Mikołajki na Mazurach, a są bardzo ładnie zadbane, odnowione. Ile razy będziesz na Rynku Głównym w Krakowie? Będziesz mieszkał w jakiejś zaniedbanej kamienicy, w smutnej rzeczywistości. Lepiej Trójmiasto, Gdańsk i morze :)
@@MaxandSidney to super, że Wam się podobało. My Polacy widzimy to trochę inaczej.
@@1.618-o2y Rzeszów to i tak jest sto razy lepsze miasto jak Tarnów. Kraków w sumie też.Na pewno w tych miastach łatwiej o pracę bo w Tarnowie to już jest tragedia.
I don't see anything interesting in Poland and Krakow. Believe me - I've lived here for 50 years...
It might be interesting to have islands in the Pacific or the Caribbeans, not some old country in the middle of Europe with a thousand years of history. Boredom!
P.S.
It's autumn in Poland now??? I look out the window and see spring... hmmm, I should probably drink less vodka...
I feel sarcasm here. Unfortunately many foreigners think it's a cold poor country filled with communist architecture and when they come here they get surprised.
Why didn't you moved out?
I couldn't force myself to live in a country I hate
@@diablo4624 This is a very complex problem... You see - the Portuguese, Spaniards, French, Dutch and English sailed the seas and oceans and took cool places for themselves. Now they can speak their language there... and our kings had no sense fighting with some idiot Teutonic Knights... Lithuanians and Tartars helped us....15,07,1410....
Half of Europe was here... Americans promised they would be but no one saw any...
@@robertzielinski2475 People still think wrong - politically. Not culturally or geographically...
Once a Frenchman asked me about the sea - I said that the sea is 600-700 km from me. He said, "That's why you still use horses for transportation." in July he came in a down jacket...:))):
p
"winter jacket"
@@cenobith73 I hope he was surprised positively... Also why people don't update their knowledge about visiting country before taking a journey? Ignorance or something else?
Na zdrowie
Cheers!! 🥂🇵🇱👍
