Gonna go Kraków for a few days! Any recommendations?

You can check out this restaurant: http://podbaranem.com/en/index.php
and try icecreams on Starowislna street (I dont know if they are open at this time of year).

sleep with one eye open. all that tension with the us military base there. if it jumps off you'll get a front row seat

Wawel obviously, castle of polish kings and one of the most famous meridian in europe (assuming you believe in such things, if not just go visit Wawel for it's architecture and antics).

another interesting tradition is connected with main Krakow's square: everyday at 12th o clock there's trumpeth signal played by fireman on the tower of church (signal always break prematurely to honor tradition i'll write below about it), this tradition is 700 years old and legend says that trumped long ago was killed by arrow before he finished his play (trumpeth signal was played everyday to let know guards it's hour to close town gates, also a warning signal when enemy comes close to city's gates, in this case arrow which killed the guy was shoot by tatar's however guards managed to close gates in time) so just be there in 12 at the day ;)

also church which tower is used to play trumpeth signal is one of the most famous churches in krakow and inside it is very old gothic altar made by Wit Stwosz, it's biggest if im not wrong gothic altar in europe and figures are 2.7m in height, definitely worthy to see it was made in 15th century.

as for the rest my friends who are the proffessional guides they say the most pretty part is Kazimierz - it was a city build in XIV and now is a part of Krakow, there's lots to see there from what they said, old architecture and antics.

beside this there's cons: city is expensive, especially center of it but for a few days it should not be a big deal.

hope it helps, have fun ;)

Will defo check this out! thanks

I'll have the popcorn ready

Ah great will check it out. And about that the city is expensive, i've heard that its pretty cheap...

and never go to Cocomo, Wild Night and Pleasure.

Salt mines.

The food was surprising great in all the recommended places. Unfortunately the names and my old literary are in FL and I am in the mountains now.

Auschwitz + prostitutes
Not at the samt time, maybe..

Wawel Castle, Wieliczka Salt Mine (medieval mine, really cool, there's like underground churches made carved entirely in the salt. It's still funcitoning and the salt I buy here comes from there), Zakopane is relatively near there, Auschwitz (Oświęcim in polish) is near there.

Edit: and stay far, far from the area called "nowa huta"...

Chess in the Jewish Quarter

Contrary to popular belief, there isn't really many jews in poland nowadays. I think something like 30k out of a population of almost 40 million

It's not as bad as it was 4-5 years ago, they cracked down on it alot lately...they actually punish the team/club now for the actions of the fans. None the less, there is that one area he should stay out of

Don't miss Nova Huta
