  One of Europe's cities of culture in the year 2000 and already on UNESCO's world heritage list, the Polish city of Krakow is an upcoming city-break destination. For centuries Krakov rivalled the great Central European cities of Budapest, Prague and Vienna. Sited on the Vistula River, it has a huge number of attractions from the medieval, Renaissance and Baroque periods, all conveniently located around the town. The city is also well supplied with restaurants, cafes and cellar bars. This book describes day trips out of town including the medieval monasteries of Bielany and Tyniec, Wolski Forest, Zakopane and the Tatra mountains and the Nazi concentration camp at Auschwitz.
