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.

Zakopane

This little town located in the Carpathian foothills of Lesser Poland contains a major historic building, the Bernadine monastery. It also has other fascinating places to visit, such as the large Jewish cemetery.

Its imposing Late Renaissance-styled Bernadine monastery, which is one of the most impressive in southeast Poland, makes the small town of Leżajsk a place definitely worth visiting. The richly ornate basilica and its convent buildings were designed by the Italian architect Antonio Pellacini, who was responsible for a number of architectural works in Lesser Poland.
You should try to visit Leżajsk for the opportunity to attend an organ recital. The 17th-century instrument in the monastery's basilica is one of the best in the country and the building hosts some excellent concerts.
The Renaissance town hall, the Orthodox church, the synagogue and especially the very large Jewish cemetery (the oldest graves at which date from the 18th century) are other highlights to see when visiting Leżajsk, a place which has the feel and atmosphere of a typically small sleepy town of southeast Poland.
