Kraków - World Heritage by UNESCO. The heart of the city ( more places to visit, music, poem, photos )

in #steemfest6 years ago (edited)

Hello my Dear Steemers,

The heart of the city for hundreds of years is the Main Square

The largest city square of medieval Europe, preserved unchanged from 1257 and inscribed on the first list of World Heritage by UNESCO in 1978.

Krak's stronghold is in the heart of every Pole.

From the tower of the St. Mary's Basilica, for 600 years an hourly bugle is played on four sides of the world.


Sukiennice - a medieval market hall - is one of the most recognizable Polish monuments.

Krakow is a city with a thousand-year history, a former seat of Polish kings and the capital of the country, and today one of the most important European metropolises. Krakow's Old Town is a unique treasury of art, historical mementos and monuments that represent almost all architectural styles - from the Middle Ages to modern times.

Currently, the Wawel Royal Castle performs museum functions

Wawel, picturesquely situated in the bend of the Vistula River in Krakow, is the most valuable monument of national history and culture in Poland. It is a treasury of knowledge about Polish history

Andrzej Sikorowski - Misty Song about My Krakow





Tu się nic nowego nie zdarzy
tu cię nic nowego nie spotka
dookoła znajome twarze
raz do roku najnowsza plotka
tynk się tylko na głowy sypie
czyli mówiąc banalnie dno
wciąż te same panienki w Spatifie
wciąż ci sami faceci w Rio
Tu przez serca krew płynie pomału
niby Wista za mostem kawałek
wczoraj nagle zachodem powiało
wrócił koleś z krainy truskawek
tynk mu nową kurtkę obsypie
kosztowała dolarów ze sto
będzie o czym pogadać w Spatifie
będzie o czym pogadać w Rio
Moje miasto dymami owiane
dzisiaj mocno trzymam w ramionach
zanim zabrzmi gwiezdny testament
zapisany w kominach i dzwonach
na ramiona tynk mi się sypie
ale na to nie zważam bo
zostawiłem dwa słowa w Spatifie
zostawiłem dwa słowa w Rio

Nothing new will happen here
you will not see anything new here
all around familiar faces
once a year, the latest rumor
Plaster only falls on the head
in other words, a bottom
still the same ladies in Spatif
still the same guys in Rio
Here blood flows slowly through the heart
like Wista behind the bridge a piece
Yesterday, suddenly, sunset was blowing
the dude from the land of strawberries came back
plaster him a new jacket, showered
it cost a hundred dollars
there will be something to talk about in Spatifa
there will be something to talk about in Rio
My city is shrouded in smoke
I hold firmly in my arms today
before the star testament sounds
saved in chimneys and bells
I plaster down on my shoulders
but I do not mind it
I left two words in Spatif
I left two words in Rio



Smog

Krakow's biggest challenge? No doubt smog. Although air pollution is still large, the fight in this field has been going on for many years, and thanks to its policy, Krakow has become the Polish leader in the fight for the environment.



Kraków's thoughts, with a mug of hot coffee by @margaretwise


Cracow pigeon

Winter will be coming soon
cold and spicy
it may surprise you
and be ruthless

The Cracow market will be covered with snow
will cover the Marian tower
the Wawel dragon will hide
He will sleep in a hideout
to wake up in early spring

Who will notice
doves of thirst in their eyes
they do not expect too much
only bread crumbs
the welcoming hand of the newcomer
which will leave traces
on a snowy eiderdown.

Kraków is a city that impresses everyone. I'm happy to meet you there.
