Mosque. Gdansk has the biggest of all 3 mosques in poland

The amber museum was a lot cooler than I expected.

so it has less than the average town of 10K in Germany?

Westerplatte and the Polish post office are both iconic WW2 locations. Sopot and Gdynia are both excellent and easily accessed from Gdansk.
Gdynia has historical ships, UNESCO site, aquarium and the Polish naval museum.
The pier in Sopot is a nice walk and the architecture around that area is excellent (same for all of the tricity area actually).
The big WW2 museum in Gdansk isn't worth it imo, it isn't bad but I remember it being a bit empty inside, haven't been to the Solidarity museum so can't speak for it. Gdansk has a zoo but it's closer to Sopot than Gdansk iirc.

I have been in winter and summer, it was great both times.

Good suggestions.
Also, Malbork castle is a potential daytrip.

the WW2 museum is dope
Also check out the bar Flisak '76 for some really cool cocktails and Mojito Cafe for breakfast

I didn't want to make another Poland thread so I'm posting here but I'm planning on having a 1-2 week trip to Krakow, possibly Christmas Week up to New Years. My original goal is to visit a friend I have but I'm not too sure if she'll be glad to have me there so I want to know if there's other stuff I could do should my initial plan fall through. Also any ideas how much an average day would cost? No fancy restaurants or tourist traps.

>christmas to new year
a-anon, i have something to tell you.

>>2853727
I'm listening.

>>2853730
It's now 2026. Christmas has passed.

>>2853731
I meant for this year's Christmas and New Years obviously. I know it's retarded to plan on January but I simply want to get a rough picture of what I could potentially be looking at. I doubt Krakow will change that much in a year.

>>2853734
>beer in bar £3
>beer in shop £1
>main dish £8-10
>salt mine access £25
>taxi from airport to centre £8-10
>pool table for an hour £10
>cinema £5-7

I guess when I go out I'm spending £40-50 or so.
Anything in particular you wanna do?

1-2 weeks is a fair bit, you'll probably wanna travel out a bit and see the mountains, maybe do a day(or2)trip to Silesia.

>>2853736
I forgot to mention but this is gonna be broke-ass college student level of trip so I expect about 1-1.5k euros at most for this trip.
>Anything in particular you wanna do?
Nothing too exciting, just sightseeing and maybe visiting historic spots. Personally I'd rather accompany that friend that I mentioned for most of my stay but again that's whether she'll be cordial.
>you'll probably wanna travel out a bit and see the mountains, maybe do a day(or2)trip to Silesia.
How much would that cost?

>>2852705
Solidarność museum, it's one of the best museums I've been to
Going to Hel(seals and beaches), Gdynia(cozy smaller city). Sopot is ok but kinda overrated imo
Just walking around, it's a nice stereotypical Baltic city
Going to the various beaches
Historical locations such as Westerplatte(where WW2 started)
Some nice parks such as the one where Hevelianum is

>>2853725
>My original goal is to visit a friend I have but I'm not too sure if she'll be glad to have me there
why don't you ask her

>>2853741
>>2853725
if you are going to Wieliczka. Go to Kalwaria Zebrzydowska too (catch a train from there). Maybe one of the most beautiful places in Poland (its baroque basilica). Also quiet place so nice change of pace, meditative trip to to speak.

>>2853745
It's complicated. I will definitely end up asking her about it later in the year but simply put, I don't fancy my chances (right now) and I'm terrified of what the response would be.
>>2853753
Those kind of places are the ones I really want to visit so I'll keep this in mind.

for flights and accom, too?

Krakow's pretty well served by low cost airlines. I'm usually flying in and out for about £40 each way. Sometimes cheap if I'm onebagging.

Accom's going to be like £40/night. I'd suggest checking into a decent hostel for a few nights to bring down your average nightly accom spend, to tap into social activities, and generally get the lay of the lland. Avoid cheap shit, as they're full of delivery drivers. Check hostel reviews religiously to look for signs of 'worker hostel'. You ONLY want backpacker vibes.

Krakow is beautiful. I love it, and now call it home. However, 2 weeks will definitely see you doing all the sights, and in winter, you're limiting kino days out by lakes and cycling to random places. After a few days hostelling, I'd recommend spending a couple of nights in Silesia or maybe in the mountains to change up the vibe and pace, before heading back to Krakow to check in to an apartment/hotel.

Silesia is cheaper than Krakow in all measurements (also bringing down your average spend). (It's the industrial region around Katowice). There you've got kino activities based on industrial heritage (mines, breweries, etc). You'll also get a breath of fresh air from mass tourism and feel like you're in abit more of a real place.

Transport in Poland is really cheap. The bus between Krk-Ktw is like £4 or something.

Over the winter Zakopane is going to be absolutely fucking heaving full of people, and is becoming expensive. It might be worth arriving there dead early in the mornnig by bus, having a look around, and heading back the same day. The Chocholowskie thermal baths are cool, with stuff like sitting naked in a sauna full of people overlooking the mountains (huge glass wall) while someone does a 'sauna dance', you can swim in a hot pool outside in minus temps, etc.

Generally you'll be fine for money.

>>2853753
Kalwaria is cool as fuck. How is it in winter though?

>>2853761
If you're worried about it, I doubt you'll be getting 2 weeks free accom from someone.
Your budget is fine and you'll have a great time.
Stay for new years, and have some fun. Your budget is plenty.

>>2853785
>for flights and accom, too?
Yes. I expect the flights to be a bit more expensive in my case as I'm a non-Euro but if the food/accom/etc prices are as everyone said so far in this thread then I guess I have nothing to worry about.
>Krakow is beautiful. I love it, and now call it home.
Good for you, anon.
>>2853788
It's less about the accom and more about her outright just not wanting to see me. Regardless I appreciate the replies anon.

>>2853800
>outright just not wanting to see me.
kek, good luck.

Let me know if you need any other advice.

If you're looking at flights in, note that you can also fly into
>budapest (6h, flixbus, probably £10 or so)
>vienna (6h, flixbus, probably £10 or so)
>katowice (2h, £10 airport shuttle)
>warsaw (2h, can be £2 regiojet train in advance lol)
>prague (6h, £15 regiojet train)

And get to Krk relatively easy. I find Budapest usually has quite good international deals (doing Budapest to Hainan soon for £250), I think their gov subsidise airline stuff as part of some national strategy.

Personally when travelling i always like to fly into 1 airpot, travel to a main place, then fly out of another airport, so i get to see 3 places. I think 2 weeks grants you that privilege, and Krakow gives you decent airport flexibility (night buses/trains kill a nights accom, too).

Basilica is open always but small temples at "calvaire path" (hiking trail around the mountain simulating jesus trail) are open only at certain days, Holliday's like august corpus Christi, etc.
If there is ice and snow you can kill yourself on such path, quite dangerous.
Not sure about traveling Poland now in general, here is view from outside of window. I have vacation now and just sit home and learn music production
