Travel / I miss Kraków... What do You miss...? [95]

I dont like touristy things so out of season will be just right.

it's always crowdy. i don't like it. the best pubs are in the Kazimierz area. more 'locals' less tourists. great atmosphere. and when summer is gone there gonna be a lot of students. a lot of hot female students ;)
