  • Despite its bleak past, Nowa Huta is a nice place to walk around and spend some time. Consider a stroll along the pedestrian mall of Aleja Róż or the Plac Centralny (Central Square).
  • From the main areas of Nowa Huta, you can easily walk to various attractions including the city’s museum and cultural center, so wear comfortable walking shoes.
  • Most tours do not include a meal, so pack a snack for a full day of sightseeing.
