Step into Central Diner, a Nowa Huta milk bar where the communist-era canteen tradition lives on. Queue with locals for pierogi ruskie, kotlet schabowy or a cup of barszcz at a bargain price.
Leave the medieval centre behind and explore Nowa Huta, Kraków's planned socialist-realist district. Walk its grand avenues, cross symmetrical squares, and take in an unusual slice of 1950s urban design on a calm, car-light stroll.
