Despite the hardships of last century, Poland blossomed into a cosmopolitan, friendly and often intensely moving place to visit. Whether people watching from a café in the beautiful medieval centre of Krakow, enjoying the stunning scenery of the southern Tatra highlands, or even at the other extreme, visiting the Auschwitz memorial, a trip here will stay with you forever.
