What to bring to Kraków (and back from it)
Books, maps and guides I like myself. The links lead to partner shops: you pay no more, and a share of the price supports the site and the apps.
Recommended
A Kraków guidebook
A classic paper guide to the city, to read in the evening at the hotel and mark where to go tomorrow.
Legends of Kraków
A collection of legends about the dragon, Twardowski and the hejnał, for children and adults. Reads well aloud.
A map of Kraków
A paper map of the Old Town and Kazimierz. It never runs out of battery and unfolds on a café table.
A photo album
Kraków in pictures, from Wawel to Nowa Huta. A good gift for someone who has already been.
A history of Kraków
A history book for those who want to know more than fits on this site.
Obwarzanek souvenirs
Obwarzanek-themed souvenirs: magnets, ceramics, bags. Or a baking kit to make your own at home.
Partner links lead to search results in the shops. Buying through them supports this site, and the shop does not raise the price. I store no data about purchases.
Enjoying the stories?
The site and both apps are free and ad-free. If you would like more routes and articles to appear, buy me a coffee.
