Kraków & Katowice, Poland

Last week I visited Kraków and Katowice in Poland on a business trip (photos here).  I had a little bit of time to walk through the old city of John Paul II’s hometown and was very impressed.  Kraków was the old capital of Poland, and as such has plenty of ancient architecture, majestic churces and even a castle, making it a UNESCO World Heritage Site.  Given that another place I seriously want to visit is also nearby, it warrants another visit for leisure.

I was not that impressed with Katowice on first sight, but noticed that buildings that look drab on the outside may have completely renovated and rather pleasant interiors.  On  a few ocassions I remembered and missed some of my Polish friends and wondered what they’re up to.
