Magical, picturesque Krakow is a city that features in most sightseeing plans. Impressive historical monuments, works of art and the artistic ambience of the place encourages you to see as much as you can. Even though Krakow itself is a place for a few intense days of sightseeing, the surrounding areas are also worth visiting. If you have no car of your own take advantage of the services of a car rental agency. Krakow is a city where you can find cars available for minutes, hours or days.
What attracts tourists to Małopolska? Culture, art, architecture and many other things
The former seat of Polish kings is a place of special historical value. You can visit the Wawel hill and see kings’ sarcophaguses there; you will also find places associated with the most famous Polish artists. Among other things, you can see Leonardo Da Vinci’s Lady with an Ermine here. In addition to the Wawel hill, the city is known for its historical architecture visible in the Main Market, tenement houses in the Kazimierz district and numerous shrines of which there are more than 350 in Krakow!
Not all the attractions are located in the old town. Places such as:
- Kościuszko Mound;
- Polish Aviation Museum,
- Piłsudski Mound,
- the historical Nowa Huta district
require a longer drive. City transport is not always the best choice for cities so popular with tourists. This is when car rental is helpful. Krakow is a place where a few companies offer cars for the time chosen by the customer, e.g. Panek CS. How does it work?
