Zakopane
Zakopane
Several hours from Krakow sits Zakopane, a town known for its unique architecture and the role it played in WWII as a staging point between Hungary and Poland. Now, however, it is a mecca for lovers of the outdoors, particularly in winter. Zakopane has played host to ski championships and events since the 1920s. From Christmas through February, expect to find nature lovers skiing at Kasprowy Wierch or Gubalowka Hill, or traversing the countryside’s forests in the latticework of cross-country ski trails. Mountaineering and spelunking are also popular sports here.

Wroclaw
Wroclaw
After capital Warsaw - Wroclaw is the second largest financial center of Poland.
The city is traditionally believed to be named after a person called Wrocis?aw/Vratislaw, often believed to be Duke Vratislav I of Bohemia. It is also possible that the city was named after the tribal duke of the Silesians, or after an early owner of the city called Vratislav. There is also another story which holds that the city was named after a Polish duke named Wrócis?aw, whose name means "he will return famous" in the old Polish language.
The name of the city today may be an issue among German and Polish nationalists, although the city's municipal website uses Breslau for the German-language version of the site.

Warsaw
Warsaw
Warsaw is not the cold and dead city it used to be under communism rule. Today with bustling Polish economy and freedom from communist rule - the city has undergone a huge transformation process. Many old communist buildings gave way to modern sky scrapers, dilapidating old town was restored, entertainment and services transformed to match that of other western capitals. Crime rate is lower than that of big cities in the United States. Today Warsaw boasts GDP per capita more than 75% of European Union average.
