Housing various numerous art treasures, the history of the Wawel Cathedral spans over a thousand years, making it one of the most exciting spots in the entire country and the city of Krakow. The walk up to the castle gate gives you a panoramic view of the grand castle. Do see the fire breathing dragon guarding the castle. A beautiful cathedral and castle are surprisingly hidden inside the walls. The place has evidence of many funerals, coronations, and burials of Poland’s rulers over the centuries. Today the cathedral is a Gothic structure, but chapels of many styles were built around it later. Many of its artifacts exhibit mysterious complicated histories of Polish kings and queens.
