National Museum
reviewed by susanderek
from United Kingdom
on Mar.29.2008 | "this museum (and the Burgher museum) just along from our hotel, so thought we'd pop in. Only 4zl, but some really interesting socialist/realist stuff to see, and some more forgettable abstracts.
Our abiding memory, though, will be the stasi-like attendants. They positively glowered - even the one who took our money...Was not expecting the 'have a nice day' treatment, but this was something else! Literally following you about as you moved from room to room.
They should lighten up - as someone earlier pointed out, the Kelvingrove in Glasgow shows how it's done.
The Burgher was similarly staffed...and cost 6zl." | | |

on Mar.17.2008 | "We met here for the March of Remembrance. The whole square has a haunting feel. " | | |
Auschwitz Jewish Center
reviewed by Daniel
from Israel
on Mar.17.2008 | "Impossible to fathom the Holocaust without understanding the culture and people lost. That a Jewish community once flourished minutes from the gas chamber sites boggles the mind. This inspiring museum and modest synagogue, shockingly right next to the camps, completes any sensitive visit to Auschwitz. Staff at the Jewish Center knowledgeable, polyglot, superb." | | |
University Museum
reviewed by Dan Horton
from United Kingdom
on Mar.12.2008 | "Had a very interesting tour here. Some beautiful rooms. Interesting to hear about Copernicus. There's a good short film that's screened in the gift shop" | | |

reviewed by Dan Horton

on Mar.12.2008 | "Very impressive collection of Orthodox icons and Old Polish art. A lot of money clearly spent on getting it right, and it has paid off. " | | |

reviewed by Dave
from United States
on Jan.22.2008 | "The best Jewish Museum in Poland. Very accomodating and a must when you vist the camps. A very tasteful, modern and moving presentation of a destroyed Jewish community. " | | |
The Aviation Museum
reviewed by K Adams
from United Kingdom
on Jan.21.2008 | "this place offers an amazing and different perspective on old soviet era fighters and bombers. it really gives the feeling of the power of the old soviet reigime. alot of the exhibits there are old and rusting away, and give the place a really daunting, but at the same time an awesome experience." | | |
National Museum
reviewed by James Gilmour
from United Kingdom
on Jan.17.2008 | "would have been a wonderful experience had it not been for the staff whos customer service skills have not moved on since the communist days.
Many wonderful pieces to see and possibly a great insight into Polish life and history. Just try not to take pictures without a permit as they may interrogate you!" | | |
Wawel Royal Castle
reviewed by Jason Miller
from United Kingdom
on Dec.20.2007 | "Visited the castle as it felt like a "must-do" and looked really impressive. However, the experience was a little sterile! Only visited the State Rooms. First surprise were the plastic shoe covers - felt like we were entering a crime scene! Might as well have been actually - we felt like we being treated like potential criminals by the staff. First there was a whole battalion of them and kept us under constant surveillance in each room as if we were going to steal some state secret. The only time they didn't look was when I looked back, (nicely though!) I put this down to a hang-over from the old Communist, Warsaw Pact days - in fact, most of them looked old and ugly enough to have been party members, (nice to see what they're doing nowadays). Seriously though, it wasn't pleasant and the only one that did smile back was a young woman. I know I read that the castle is central to the Polish people and that their history has been a turbulent one with some very dark periods - but really, we're not there to trash the place! I also agree with other reviewers comments on the information boards - boring and un-informative. the best part of the castle visit was being bowed to by two giggly Japanese girls who took our picture for us! Come on Cracow this attraction could be so much more. " | | |
