We went for a walk around Kazimierz, where the Jewish culture thrived before WWII. That culture is coming to the fore once again as part of a more multicultural area with cafes, bars, shops and a flea market included. Important synagogues such as the Kupa and the Isaak, sit close to some of old Cracow's 150 catholic churches, such as the huge Corpus Christi (below). The wooden pulpit is fishing boat shaped, complete with oars, nets and mermaids
A sadly derelict children's playground, unused except for the cat. Can you spot it?
More baffling than the two gentlemen outside St Mary's Basilica. How does she do it?
Plenty of good quality street music about, but happily for us, the streets are not crowded.
