Since Poland is traditionally religious catholic country, we can also find places of worship at parks too.

From here motor vehicle traffic is not allowed but we can use an environmentally friendly Horse cart. The Horse taxi takes us along a whole row of weekend houses to the ruins of the castle of Ojcow from the fourteenth century.
Many Kraków residences have weekend houses or lots here, where many grow vegetables and fruit as a hobby. They making of Sauerkraut have a long tradition. The cabbage grown in the garden is pickled in barrels or nowadays in clay pots, and use to the making of bigos. The Polish national food inspired the following lines by in this exhibits in the pandowdies. Bigos was on the boil, hard to express in words the wondrous taste, the hue, and gusty of the hunt man stew. Words are clanging symbols rhymes but seared sounds, there substance.

In the area of the park, besides the castles, some remaining old villas can also be visited. Of the once impressive buildings at the castle of Ojcow, only the pentagonal towers and the gate have remained. Near by there are two museums that we may visit. The local history museum exhibits the regional history, ethnography and traditions but the national park exhibits its rich flora and fauna. In the park or very close to it, we can find four caves to which tourist pass lead. Down there all your round refrigerators like temperature dominate, which means five to seven degrees Celsius. It's worth preparing for this with coats and sweaters.
If we've had to leave our cars anyway, we cannot only go with a good walking tour but we can take the opportunity for a bicycle tour, even with the rented mountain bike. The scenic valley of the Prudnik is winding along the oldest ranges of the era of Krakow. The river valley narrowing to canyons of some places is framed with limestone rocks of various shapes. The valley widens at some places, here it's surrounded by green fields.
While in the white rocks the mouths of caves are various sizes are open. The famous rock formation standing at the east area is called the Krakow gate. The log shaped rock rising behind is called Hercules club. In the last third of the ten kilometer long valley, the view of the romantic castles standing on the steep hill opens up. The Piascoes Kaskala was built on the fourteen century to be a royal watch post, and then it became the possession of a Polish Aristocratic family.

Wawel Castle. Kraków, Poland.
Wawel castle. Krakow, 2014, the most beatiful polish castle !!
The Gothic Wawel Castle in Kraków in Poland was built at the behest of Casimir III the Great, who reigned from 1333 to 1370, and consists of a number of structures situated around the central courtyard.
In the 14th century it was rebuilt by Jogaila and Jadwiga of Poland. Their reign saw the addition of the tower called the Hen's Foot (Kurza Stopka) and the Danish Tower.[1] The Jadwiga and Jogaila Chamber, in which the sword Szczerbiec, was used in coronation ceremonies, is exhibited today and is another remnant of this period.[2] Other structures were developed on the hill during that time as well, in order to serve as quarters for the numerous clergy, royal clerks and craftsmen. Defensive walls and towers such as Jordanka, Lubranka, Sandomierska, Tęczyńska, Szlachecka, Złodziejska and Panieńska were erected in the same period.
The Wawel Royal Castle and the Wawel Hill constitute the most historically and culturally important site in Poland. For centuries the residence of the kings of Poland and the symbol of Polish statehood, the Castle is now one of the country’s premier art museums. Established in 1930, the museum encompasses ten curatorial departments responsible for collections of paintings, including an important collection of Italian Renaissance paintings, prints, sculpture, textiles, among them the Sigismund II Augustus tapestry collection, goldsmith’s work, arms and armor, ceramics, Meissen porcelain, and period furniture. The museum’s holdings in oriental art include the largest collection of Ottoman tents in Europe. With seven specialized conservation studios, the museum is also an important center for the conservation of works of art.
