I will be traveling to Poland soon and I want to visit overnight at this place. I heard its a major tourist attraction but both of my travel guides does not explain how to get there. Can anyone give me some advice on how to get there from Wroclaw or Krakow area?

I also want to get to the Chapel of Skulls from this area but I heard the bus lines are infrequent.

I was under the impression that the Church of Bones was in the Czech Republic?

I honestly don't know what way would be better, but I know that Wroclaw is closer to it. My guide books mentions it but it seems a little far off. What would be the best route? I don't care how early I have to wake up to see it, I just really want to see it.

the best way to get to kudowa would be going on a bus (journey takes abt 3 hrs), a train takes much longer abt 4 hrs. There are several direct buses to Kudowa Zdróh during the day e.g. at 10:40, 13:30 15 : 50, 16:50, 18:40. there is a few more and i'm sure in morning hours. fro mthe main bus stop in Kudow it would take you abt 45 min walking there.

Ive read somewhere that you r interested in Chopin. i dont know if you heard about place Duszniki Zdroj, in the town on way to Kudowa (20 min before Kudowa). There every year takes places International Chopin Festival and there is Chopin Spa Theatre and monument.
