Description
The Main Market Square is one of the largest medieval squares in Europe, forming the heart of Krakow's Old Town. This historic square impresses with its unique architecture, with the dominant St. Mary's Basilica famous for its wooden altar by Wit Stwosz and bugle call played every hour.
Surrounding the square are the historic Cloth Hall, the world's first department store, where you can buy amber, lace and souvenirs. The City Hall Tower offers a panoramic view of the entire area.
The atmosphere of the Market Square is vibrant with street musicians, artists and horse-drawn carriages. It's the perfect place to experience Polish culture and enjoy traditional cuisine in the numerous restaurants and cafes.

karyn Fawcetta month agoWhat a fabulous square to people watch from. The restaurants lining it are really cheap as the Zloty is 5 to a pound! Food is delicious. The food market at the weekend was amazing too. Spent a lot of time here just soaking up the atmosphere. It's full of pigeons so if you don't like birds..... 🐦⬛🐦⬛🐦⬛
Sudeshna Banerjeea month agoOne of my favourite European city squares, the bustling Rynek Glowny is the place to be in on a weekend in Krakow. From musical gigs to impromptu dance performances, there's everything to keep anyone entertained. Cute cafes wherever you look. Lovely place to take photos or just watch the world go by while sipping coffee or having a meal. Without a doubt, this is my most favourite place in Krakow.
Mateusz Czerniaka week agoGreat location and great atmosphere. I do recommend walking around and checking the menus if you're looking for food. Most food places about 90% of them have same food there. But the prices differ. So I do highly recommend price checking. Specially drinks, I saw few that wanted 35 zloty for a beer. Other than that is a great place to visit. I do think I enjoyed old city in Warzawa more though.Related categories
