Krakow - you must be here!
Krakow is one of the largest and most beautiful cities in Poland. Founded over a thousand years ago, it served as the capital of Poland, and the surrounding nature attracted not only merchants. To this day, Krakow is considered a magical city by tourists. This is not a surprise - a visit to this city is a meeting with the history of our country.
Apart from the historical aspect, Krakow is a business, cultural and scientific center. In July, Krakow was in the final of the European Mission Awards 2022 in the Best MICE destination category. The result is not surprising, because for years the city has attracted not only tourists, but also scientists and entrepreneurs from the farthest parts of the world. A business trip to Krakow is pure pleasure, which is encouraged by the organizers of the fair.
