. World War II History
We'll begin with the simple one. At the point when numerous individuals consider Poland, they think about the nation's (generally pitiful) history in WWII. For anybody inspired by this terrible piece of mankind's history, Poland is an unquestionable requirement visit nation.
The most evident is the eerie and annoying Auschwitz-Birkenau fixation and concentration camp, situated around a hour outside of Krakow. It is important to pre-book a visit around the camp. The guide gives incredible point of view on what might somehow be a totally dreamlike affair. Regardless of the amount you've found out about what occurred at Aushwitz amid the monstrosities of the war, being there is a calming and passionate experience.
Strolling around Krakow, you can investigate the previous Jewish ghetto and Plaszow death camp. These are notable as the real area of a considerable lot of the occasions portrayed in Steven Spielberg's motion picture Schindler's List. The generally new exhibition hall in Schindler's previous plant is a standout amongst other WWII gallery's we've at any point visited (and we've been to a great deal), and ought to be an unquestionable requirement see for anybody visiting Krakow.
More unexpected is Westerplatte, simply outside the northern city of Gdansk. This is the place the main authority shots were discharged of WWII, between the Germans and the Poles on September 1, 1939.
. Numerous Beautiful Old Towns
"Magnificence" and "Poland" aren't two words the vast majority put in a similar sentence, however that is a slip-up. In spite of significant decimation amid WWII, some old towns endure, and others have been revamped similarly as they existed before the war.

Most voyagers consider just Krakow. In all actuality, the old town of Krakow is as delightful as it is overwhelm with vacationers. The old town of Warsaw is exceptionally underestimated. While most (or all) of it must be revamped after the war, it is as yet a delightful and fascinating spot to investigate, loaded up with eateries, bars, places of worship, and landmarks.
We were likewise enjoyably amazed by the northern port city of Gdansk, which was most likely our most loved city to investigate in the whole nation.
To get unexpected a bit, attempt Wroclaw. This city is know as the "Venice of Poland" because of the numerous waterways through the downtown area. Invest your energy hunting down the 300 little persons dispersed all through the city.
Or on the other hand escape the focal point of Krakow to look at the area of Nowa Huta, an arranged network given as a "blessing" from the USSR to Poland and expected to be a socialist perfect world.
. Climbing in the Tatra Mountains
Poland has astonishing climbing. Who knew? A (hopeful) two hour transport ride south of Krakow conveys you to Zakopane, and snow capped town that wouldn't be strange in Austria or Switzerland, however happens to be in the Polish Tatra Mountains. The perspectives from mainstream Mt Giewont are shocking in the event that you can manage the groups coming up the link vehicle on occupied summer ends of the week. Take a stab at going in the shoulder season for a calmer affair.
. Gracious no doubt, and the Food
Pierogies. What more do you require? You like exquisite? Done! You need something sweet? Don't sweat it. In what capacity can such a straightforward dish be so heavenly? For the genuine specialist, get to Krakow for the yearly Pierogi Festival each August.
On the off chance that you ever become weary of meat/potato/cheddar/organic product filled dumplings, we additionally discovered incredible pizza (CZIKAGO in Zakopane), astonishing kebabs (Sapko Kebab in Warsaw), and even good (Sushi Corner in Wroclaw), despite the fact that the last took a touch of seeking on our part.
Ensure you wash all that incredible nourishment down with some nearby vodka!
. Also, ultimately, the Beaches
Indeed, you read that right. Shorelines. In Poland. Without a doubt, the Baltic Sea can be somewhat nippy, yet those Poles are solid individuals. The shoreline at Sopot, close Gdansk, was delightful and occupied.
