Destination Profile
Poland ranges from the rock-ribbed Tatra Mountains to the icy waves of the Baltic Sea. It goes from the moss-caked forests on the Belorussian border to the rolling hills that bound across to Saxony and Czechia. Forged by millennia of conflicts and kingdoms, it's a real crossroads of Europe. Towns like Krakow still come gilded with mighty castles and medieval squares as testimony to that. Others – like the happening capital in Warsaw – look forward with skyscrapers and creative gastronomy. Then there's enchanting little Zakopane, laced with highland taverns and often plumed in snow, or Gdansk, where Hanseatic merchant homes pepper the docks. Tempted? Cheap flights to Poland from USA can be direct, though the best deals will often include a stopover before arrival.
Krakow Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that's brimming with medieval merchant halls, cobbled roads, and pulsing nightlife bars.
Be enchanted by the so-called Winter Capital of Poland. That's Zakopane, where mountains rise and quaint highland taverns serve smoked sheep's cheese by the fireside.
The Hel Peninsula pokes into the Baltic Sea with mile upon mile of soft sand and dunes.
