Krakow, the old royal city of Poland, is still considered the secret capital. It is home to a large number of undestroyed cultural sites, including Wawel, the old castle with its palace and cathedral. The old town with the Jewish residential district of Kaziemierz is also worth seeing and is a World Heritage Site.
