In my opinion, the Franciscan basilica (or (Bazylika Św. Franciszka) is the most beautiful church in Krakow. I have never seen anything like this place. Same as the Maria basilica, the walls here are amazingly painted with colorful motives. Yet here the drawings look different: more flashy, intense…

I absolutely love this museum. To go in you must get tickets ahead of time, but it is absolutely worth it. To get there you have to walk through a beautiful public park that used to be the grounds for the Borghese family's estate. Once inside you will see some of the most fantastic art in Rome. …

The Louvre is a massive museum. It is essentially, many museums combined into one, with enough material to keep a visitor busy for months. The size of the Louvre is also one of it's biggest challenges. It is possible to see it all, but not really absorb or enjoy the material.On…

I loved the National Gallery! It is full of great paintings and some sculptures of mainly Norwegian artists. Not too modern, many beautiful landscapes. And of course I did not like every painting there, but that is impossible with such a large collection. It is a very good overview of Norwegian pain…

To me, the Bazylika Mariacka or Basilica of Mary was the highlight of Krakow's old town. This church is placed at one corner of the main square Rynek Glowny, facing the Sukiennice cloth hall.
The outside isn't that much spectacular, constructed of brick stone and with two towers that aren't of th…

I really wanted to see the Van Gogh museum because Van Gogh is my favorite painter of all times. I really admire his work, all of it, but not so much the flowers and stuff, rather the sceneries and self portraits, which are wonderful. I don't know if the museum is that interesting for someone who do…

The Dominican church is a very beautiful, and rather big one, just a small stroll away from the Rynek Glowny. Seen from the outside it doesn't look very special, although the facade is a bit extraordinary shaped. Yet the inside is very spacious and light, with rather modern paintings, a small dome a…
