krakow

I spent almost a week in Poland in Krakow. Went to Auschwitz and also to the salt mines. Spent the rest of the time enjoying the city and its night life....




The castle in Krakow..super beautiful!



Krakow's city mascot...how cute a big mug of beer!



Tours by golf carts..they are lined up in the street on the main square!



Where else can you get pickles in a bag?? Only in Poland!



The deepest cathedral in Poland at more than 100 meters belowsea level. Oh yeah it is in the middle of a salt mine! which also happens to be a UNESCO world heritage site.



One of the blocks where the prisoners were living in Auschwitz were living.




Auschwitz I: the barb wire and guard tower.






Auschwitz II concentration camp: the train tracks where the Jews were dropped off at and sorted to work or be murdered.
