The city's Old Town offers a unique atmosphere with thousands of bars and delightful regional restaurants, many historic buildings and horse-driven cabs. You will see, among others, the Town Hall Tower, St. Mary's Basilica, Krakow Barbican and Sukiennice (Cloth Hall) – Renaissance main center of international trade. You'll also get to marvel at the Wawel Hill with the Cathedral and the Royal Castle! It's the most picturesque and important sight in Krakow. Some of its oldest stone buildings date back to the 10th century. Until 1611, the castle was the formal seat of Polish monarchy – it was the place of royal coronations, weddings and funerals. In a cave at the foot of the hill, on the bank of the Vistula River, the Wawel Dragon had his lair. Nowadays it is a common tourist stop.
