Amazing photos. I was in Krakow but only for a one day and I think that I missed many things.

I have maybe strange question. I hope it doesn’t offend anybody but now I have trouble. After some last misunderstanding between Poles and Lithuanian I have really no idea.
Is Lithuanian as a former country of Rzeczpospolita consider Krakow as their capital in any historical moment?

[Ežiukas]

never

[Mantas]

Nah, Vilnius was our capital since 1323

Ačiū, Jožikai, už pradėtą temą ir įdėtas nuotraukas.
Tos pirmos panoraminės nebuvau matęs. BTW, būtų gražu, jei prie kai kurių būtų nurodytas ir autorius.

Įdėsiu ir aš savo trigrašį
Sukiennica (gelumbės "prekybinės eilės") centrinėje aikštėje (aikštė dabar lyg ir rekonstruojama). Įdomu, kad to pastato viduje yra Lenkijos miestrų herbų freskos. Nėra Wilno, Lwow, Grodno, bet yra Szczecin, Wroclaw, Legnica, Swidnica, etc.

O balandžiai ten visai nebaikštūs


Krokuva - labai patogus stopas važiuojant iš pietų.
Paskutinį kartą ten buvau birželį. Šiaurinėj daly yra didelis akvaparkas (bet man Jūrmalos labiau patiko).

Turėjau progą prasilėkti iš ryto tuščiomis miesto gatvėmis. Čia gyvena 700 tūkst. žmonių. Didmiestis...
Be centrinės aikštės ir Wawelio dar galėčiau paminėti Kazimierz (kažkas panašaus į Vilniaus Naujamiestį, tik žymiai didesnis) ir bulvarų žiedą aplink senamiestį.

Puikus miestas

Romas, dodalem napisy do fotek

[Delfinas]

[Krakus]

SUPER foty delfin! I haven't seen them before!

[Krakus]

You must be wrong
There are two world wide famous salt mines in Poland, both near Krakow - Wieliczka and Bochnia. Wieliczka salt mine is on UNESCO list.

[DeSadas]

It is Wielizka, beautiful all the salt sculptures and even a church inside

[Krakus]

Wieliczka is only 1500 m far away from Krakow! Many people living in south districts of Krakow live closer to Wieliczka's centre than to Krakow centre, some people consider it as one city.
