LGBT Friendly Places in Krakow
Poland may get a poor wrap when it comes to homophobia, but for every primitive moron, you'll find two more evolved legends.

Cracow is the second-biggest city in Poland with a population of over , people. It combines medieval charm, 20th-century elegance, and postwar Soviet architecture to give an unforgettable experience.
