Situated on the Polish and Slovakian border, the Dunajec gorges offer amazing views  of the Pieniny region.    

Europe

After almost half a century of being under supervision, Poland has been slowly, but surely, opening its doors to the world over the past twenty years. Vibrant and dynamic, one of its main attractions is its striking blend of modernism and archaism. The towns boast many different sights: the capital of Warsaw is a showcase of the country’s new modernity, while the picturesque Krakow and Gdansk seem at times to be set in another era. Equally, you can discover dreamy landscapes, from the Baltic beaches to the many lush and unspoilt natural areas (natural parks, ‘the land of the thousand lakes’). But Poland also has a very heavy history, which you can, and should, discover, by visiting sites charged with history, such as the Warsaw ghetto and the infamous Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp. To visit Poland is to discover a world of contrasts, a country focused on the future, and the scars it wears preserve an authenticity that forms all its charm.

The Wieliczka Royal Salt Mines are easy to get to from Kraków.  You can therefore go on an afternoon's excursion to them. 

Wieliczka

A cold city at first sight, but a good place to come to terms with. Warsaw is a footprint of history and this history is still too often little-known.

The first winter sports resort on the Polish side of the Tatras, Zakopane has managed to retain all of its old-world charm with its many wooden chalets.

Sandomierz, which lies in the southeast quarter of the country, is a pleasant and peaceful little town with a population of around 20,000 and whose historic role in Poland's history is not difficult to discern. Despite its peaceful appearance today, Sandomierz was for centuries one of the country's most important towns, a fact evident in the relatively large scale of its historic centre, which consists of a series of beautiful Baroque houses located around a central square together with several adjacent streets. Sandomierz is a very enjoyable place to visit and offers a welcome place to stop off at in the region, especially given that it lies away from the main tourist circuits, which meant I got the impression that I was the only visitor or tourist in the place and had the opportunity to take advantage of the warm, friendly welcome offered by the local people. Overall, this is an enjoyable place to visit and in which to spend some time when staying in Poland.
