Rick Steves' Europe (2000)

S3E10 Poland Rediscovered: Kraków, Auschwitz, and Warsaw

Poland is poised for a resurgence as the traditional "east" evolves into the vibrant core of Europe. Krakow, with its lively Baroque architecture and charming cobblestone streets, is becoming the thrilling "next Prague." A trip to Auschwitz offers a profound and reflective experience, reminding us of history's weight. Meanwhile, Warsaw, which was systematically devastated during World War II, has rebounded and is now a bustling, dynamic capital once more.
