This monument is one of the favorite meeting places in Krakow.
Kazimierz is Cracow's former Jewish Quarter. Once a separate town dating back to the 14th century, it was nearly destroyed by Nazis during World War II. Today this historic district is undergoing a renaissance as a Bohemian enclave; its splendid synagogues and churches have been restored. We visited one of Poland's oldest synagogues with one of the oldest surviving Jewish cemeteries that was not destroyed by the Nazis, and Oscar Schindler's factory as it remains today
The neo-romanesque Fisherman's Bastion overlooks the Danube. This is the oldest section of Buda, containing the original Main Street where Roman soldiers once walked.
