Krakow

85 °F

This is my second visit to Krakow and I enjoyed my time spent here, but I’m not sure I enjoyed it as much as the first time. Let’s put my opinion in perspective, the first visit was in the fall and this time it was in the summer. So, summer time is crazy crowded, sticky hot and more expensive, but It’s a great place to stroll on a nice summer night. There was a stage set up with entertainment in the main square and booths filled with food and trinkets. Ice cream taste fantastic and drinking beer on a hot summer day is the best. The restaurants are a great place to people watch and the horse and carriage scene is nice to look at but if you are eating a nice meal, the horse smell doesn’t always compliment your food. Now, fall gives you less crowds, cheaper hotels, but the cold weather isn’t always comfortable. You tend not to consume as much ice cream but for some remarkable reason, the beer still tastes great. Dining in the outdoor restaurants is still enjoyable because they have plenty of heaters and blankets to keep you warm and because of the cooler temperatures, the horse and carriage scene is much more pleasant. Personally, if I were to come back, I would choose the fall over the summer.
