Krakow BLEW US AWAY! (First Day in Krakow, Poland)

[@barbarabal8922]

You're right Jenny. This is the heart of Poland. Old capital if the country, and the Wawel castle had seen a lot of glory and tragedy. Krakow was never destroyed, so everything you see its original (XI century to begin with). And Sukiennice was the medieval mall, full of goodies, from food to cloth).Thank you for sharing ❤❤❤

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

That is good to know. We are so glad Krakow was saved from being destroyed. Thank you for the information and for watching :)

[@PunkRockerPL]

Thank you for a wonderful video, good emotions and promotion of the city where I was born. All the best for you

[@Grzegorz2109]

Fajnie się patrzy i słucha jak ludzie z innych krajów odkrywają rzeczy dla nas oczywiste 🙂 Dobrze, że mamy czym się pochwalić .

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

It is such an amazing place!! We are loving it🇵🇱 thanks for watching!

[@kermitage]

Guys, I strongly suggest you visiting Wieliczka Salt Mine, which is not far away from Cracow, to the South. Glad you're enjoying Poland, have fun :)

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

Yes we have heard it’s amazing! If we don’t get there this trip, we will definitely be back! Thank you so much for the recommendation :)

[@jerzy7118]

2 hours' drive from Krakow to Zakopane - the winter capital of Poland. A lot of snow, highlander architecture, and when you go to a restaurant, you can see highlanders in their costumes and playing their characteristic music.

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

We are headed to Zakopane next!! We can’t wait 🏔️❄️ thanks for the recommendation friend!

[@sexybrainful]

@@JacobandJennyTravel - and make sure you DO get some skiing (snowboard) lessons! Unless you're familiar with skiing already. Great fun 😍😎

[@Glitchexop]

And from Zakopane is that Chelsea what you try call oscypek. In Zakopane is everywere!

[@WITYTRAVELS]

So glad you went to that museum to learn more of the past of Krakow. It is just a beautiful city with so much history.

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

Yes definitely!! 🙌🏼 thanks for watching friends!

[@katarzynaherman4814]

Poland has less humidity than Portugal, so even - 10C can be very pleasant. X The park surrounding old town is know as Planty. It's like a ring around the old town

[@EWAMILENAP]

Polska ❤

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

That makes sense!! It has been cold but not too bad! Thanks for the information friend :)

[@Bzhydack]

Planty are ring around town because were build in place of medieval town walls during grand modernisation of Krakow in XIXth century.

[@sgebert]

Jenny, the biggest medieval castle in the world is located in Malbork, Poland

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

Oh wow we will have to get over there soon!! Thanks so much for the information :)

[@komentator9448]

​​@@JacobandJennyTravelyou have direct trains from Kraków to Malbork every 2h. And close to Malbork is Gdańsk, Sopot and Gdynia - so called Tricity. Each city has different history and vibe: Gdańsk is the meadevial harbour and trade center, Sopot the sea resort and Gdynia is only 100 years old and is full of good architecture from 1920's.

[@rafalkaminski6389]

But Wawel is more friendly

Hi there, if you have a time, visit Krynica Zdrój - little, lovely town in mountains. Now is cozy because of snow and whole surroundings is beautiful, it's smaller than Zakopane but also nice. Greetings from Krynica!

Krakow is just stunning isn’t it. I find it addictive. Went once and have been 5 times since. Poland is full of great amazing cities. Wroclaw is just as beautiful as krakow. Go up the penitents bridge. Also Gdansk is very good and a trip to sopot on the Baltic Sea

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

That’s fun you’ve been to Krakow so many times! When we plan another trip to Poland we’ll have to check out more cities. Thanks for the recommendation!

Wawel the castle is so big because Kraków was second Polish capital in the past. Warsaw is 3th Polish capital.

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

That is good to know! Thank you for the information friend :)

[@katarzynaherman4814]

Hi there. Now in old capital of Poland. Glowny - main. Yes, Krakow wasn't destroyed. Germans had they base in Krakow. Apart from that this settlement has very good place for it. Something like fengshui. So might be that helps this town/city to exist. This long building in main square, Sukiennice were built for trading. Shopping centre of olden days ;) As you going south, you heading higher above the level of the sea. Is going to be colder. I do recommend having soups. You won't put on waight and that warm you up. (obviously warm wine or tea with rum is also good 😀) Quite a few foreigners likes our soups. Very specific one, especially in Zakopane - kwasnica, based on sour cabbage. As you know sour - fermented with salt vegetables are good for our guts. Keep warm! Best regards 💞

[@MonikaYTMonika]

Yes,the energy of Krakow city is quite nice.

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

The soups here have been soooo amazing and definitely help us warm up! We love it. Thank you so much for your comments and great information! Cheers friend ♥️

[@pavelius140]

If you plan to go even more south like to Zakopane, then you have to try Kwaśnica, its a sour soup made from cabbage and its traditional soup from Podhale

The market hall you were in is Sukiennice, one of the oldest market halls in Poland, dating back to 13th century :) Originally the goods that were traded there were mainly cloth (thus the name “sukno” means “cloth”) and salt from Wieliczka :)

That "little park" is called the Planty. It encircles all of Old Town. You feel about it like I do. Though you are in the heart of Old Town the Planty creates a place of peace and calm, being surrounded by nature. I am an American who has lived in this beautiful city for 10 1/2 years. Because the Nazis made Kraków their headquarters after invading the country, Kraków was preserved. That is why it feels so old and authentic, because it is! The streets and buildings just ooze with history. I am so in love with my city!🥰

If you want to understand Poland better, go to your library, order his biggest work named "Sir Thaddeus", read it and go back here. Imagine me, standing in front of George Washington's statue and saying: This is..., well, some US politician I guess, and I don't know how I have to spell his name properly".

Poland was a mess during WW2, loads of buildings were damaged and later renovated, but not nearly to the extent of Warsaw, which was practically down to the ground and had to be rebuilt from scratch after 1945. If you travel a bit around Poland - there are hundreds of bigger and smaller cities and towns that have lots of buildings dating back to middle ages.

[@AdamNeoDot]

P.S. When you mentioned love for castles - I had to add one more thing - visiting Malbork castle is a must have for any castle lover - it is a biggest castle in the world and it is located in Poland :). Next to Malbork the Wawel castle in Krakow is little :D. Just be prepared - you need at least 3 hours for a full trip of Malbork castle museum.

I'm an American that lives in Krakow and I gotta say as my fellow American expat friends and myself that have been here for years have noticed. You guys probably stuck out like a sore thumb with speaking so loud and doing the huge toothy smiles that say American tourists instantly lol. And to answer your questions Krakow received very little damage in the war so yes most of the buildings in the old town are original and up to a thousand years old for some of them. As someone who has lived in Poland for years and can speak an amount of Polish those tries at pronunciation made me cringe but it was a valiant effort 😅

[@NataliaD.Ś]

How do you enjoy living in Poland? I guess the cultural shock must have been pretty big at first? 😂

[@polskaexpore]

@@NataliaD.Ś I've been here for three years. It was a shock at first with family life of having to attend so many family parties. Plus bureaucracy of how everything requires paperwork that was delivered by carrier pigeons and signed by the prime minister himself 🤣. But you get used to it over time. My favourite culture shock was work culture. At first I worked for my American job remotely that I just took with me. Once I had to leave that I got a job here at a Polish company and was guaranteed 26 paid vacation days plus separate paid sick time. Not to mention the company parties and being treated like a human being. I just remember my American job made me pass out a few times from exhaustion and now here with a polish job I feel completely happy.

[@Kariija]

It's very nice to watch your reports from Krakow 😊...really....I am touched by your enthusiasm. Big props for the sour soup - "żurek". This soup is not only tasty, but also healthy (of course, when prepared properly). Krakow was not destroyed during 2WW unlike Warsaw, so what you see in Krakow is authentic old buildings. This shop in the middle of the market square is called "Sukiennice", it is one of the oldest supermarkets in Europe (the world?). Your must visit the Wieliczka, old salt mine, which has been operating CONTINUOUSLY (!!!) for over 700 years. It is on the UNESCO list of world cultural virginities. ....And the concentration camp in Auschwitz (Oświęcim). It's not a fancy & light experience, but it's a must. After seeing this, many things regarding 2WW , Nazism, etc. are seen in a different light. ....and Zakopane... well. The mountains are beautiful, but the city....mmmm...less than average. Expensive, lots of tourists and a lot of kitsch. City Wrocław - I recommend it! definitely. I wish you many nice moments and discoveries in Poland 😊😊😊 PS. Among the dishes, try dumplings - pierogi. Necessarily. PS 2. Sorry for my English.

Great video, Is it better to fly from the USA to Krakow or Warsaw to start your trip, and end it in either City? Cheers

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

Thank you so much! There seemed to be more international flights to Warsaw so we flew into there :)

[@tadeuszwojtowicz9654]

Hi there. I would recommend you visit Lublin. You will be impress. 😊

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

1200’s woah that’s some bad chronology right there. Yes, there’s old buildings, but not that old. You might find a few stones in the Churches of St Adalbert & St Andrew, or in Wawel Castle, but they’ve all had their interiors & exteriors, as well as their structures modified and built upon many times.

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

That is good to know! Thanks for the information :)

How was the train ride? What train did you take?

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

It was great! We took a direct train from Warsaw to Krakow! Very easy :)

[@komentator9448]

@@JacobandJennyTravel I ment, if it has been high speed pendolino (EIP) or the classic one: engine + cars (EIC, IC or TLK)?

Jenny, you're the biggest snow fan I've ever seen 😅 The soup you ate is called żurek and it's made of soured rye flour. It can be served in bread. Yes, inside a loaf of bread. This version is even more delicious! Have you ever heard of such a sport as ski jumping? It is a very popular in Poland. While in Zakopane, you can try to see the ski jumping hills. Maybe you'll come across a training session :) This is how it looks like in Zakopane during World Cup competition - kzbin.info/www/bejne/p5vEZ3mXna9_Zsk

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

Hahahaha I do love snow a lot ❄️😂 the soup was so delicious. That is good to know! We will look it up. Thanks for the information :)

The Royal Capital City of Kraków - City retains the title of capital. Poznań has a similar name - The Capital City of Poznań.

Those steps were so narrow going up! Reminds me of the steps going up to the Blarney Stone in Ireland! lol I def need to get back to Poland someday, I was only there 1.5 days so didn't have much time to explore!

[@JacobandJennyTravel]

Ooo we will have to do that someday too! And prepare for steps 😂 you should definitely visit Poland again, it’s so magical at Christmas time 🎄

[@levy7166]
