Located in the middle of Silesia on the banks of the river Rawa, Katowice has been Poland's main industrial centre for many centuries having a great historical importance. Among the historical monuments, the art nouveaux tenements in the city centre, neo-baroque and Neo-Gothic buildings with architectural details restored with reverence, as well as the Nikiszowiec quarters, all constitute examples of unique architecture. The must sees of Katowice are: Drapacz Chmur - one of the first skyscrapers in Europe, St. Mary's Church, St. Stephen's Church, Silesian Parliament, The Goldstein Palace and Nikiszowiec - historical settlement of Katowice, candidate to UNESCO.
Much of Warsaw's historic center was painstakingly recreated and today's Old Town buildings are closer to the original architecture than they were ever before. It has a wealth of shops and restaurants to potter around in. The city also boasts many green spaces, with leafy parks where rowing boats cruise past outdoor cafés, during the summer, and free classical concerts attract. In addition, the Former Jewish ghetto is a stark reminder of the unforgiving hand of history. The nightlife scene is equally surprising, with the city's increasingly well-dressed youth flocking to the countless bars and clubs of a city that now hums after dark.
Kraków is one of the oldest cities of Poland and one of the cultural and artistic centres of the country, the former seat of the Polish kings and national capital. Among the hightlights of the city are: the Royal Castle and Cathedral on Wawel Hill; the medieval Old Town with its beautiful Market Square; the 14th-century buildings of the Jagiellonian University; as well as Kazimierz, the historical centre of Kraków's Jewish religious and social life. Kraków hosts many annual artistic events.
