Krakow

Über Krakow

Kraków (IPA: [ˈkrakuf]) is the chief city of Małopolskie Province in the south of Poland and was the capital of the country during the Middle Ages. At its core is a beautifully-preserved medieval town on the banks of the River Wisła or Vistula, and it's Poland's top tourist draw. The modern city, with a population of just over 800,000 (2023), stretches way beyond, including the communist-era "new town" of Nowa Huta.
