Trip to Krakow

We left Poznan at 5am. The first stop was in the monastery of Częstochowa where we visit the place and we could climb the tower and enjoy some really amazing views.

After that we had lunch there and we continued our trip until we arrived to Krakow at 6 pm.

We checked in and we went to see how We went to krakow in an organized trip by our university,

the city was at night. It was one of the most beautiful cities I have ever seen. The main square was full of lights, while we were walking around we listened somebody singing, it was such a gorgeous sound that we stood there for half an hour. She was singing opera and a lot of people as us were looking at her.

After all we came back to the hostel and we enjoy the party in Krakow.

Next day we went to sightseeing around the city with a guide during four hours and it was so interesting.

On Wednesday we went to Ogrodzieniec castle to visit it and then we had lunch in a typical polish restaurant in the middle of the countryside, after that we went to the salt mines.it was so beautiful ,in that awesome chapel you can feel like a princess surrounded of all this huge lamps. It was so worth it to go there.

At the end of the day we return to Krakow and packed everything because next day we were leaving to Zakopane.
On Thursday we went to Zakopane and we spent there the all-day sightseeing and we also took a cable car to reach the top and we really enjoy that. For me was the best part of the trip breathing this fresh air.
Next day we went to do trecking in the Tatra Mountains and some of us had the opportunity to climb along a cave.It was pretty dangerous but actually that happens once in a life time.

On Sunday, the last day of our trip we went to Auschwitz . I can describe this experience as one of the worst in my life,I can not explain what I felt that day.

My day became dark when I crossed that door.
We arrived at 11pm in Poznan.
I have to say that it was a really cultural trip but I really enjoyed meeting new people and learning more and more everyday about the Polish Culture.

  1. I guess you've seen some of the best bits of Poland, except the last one, of course. Note, however, that there are many other places worth seeing, like Sandomierz, Toruń, or Mazurian lakes, for example.

  4. I'm afraid the calendar is causing some trouble - there are some pop-up windows with ads, which did not occur before. Feel free to remove it then, or to replace it with something else.
