The verdict for February

Kraków at its quietest
+Lowest crowd pressure
–Very cold
February remains cold, but it is one of Kraków’s quietest and potentially cheapest periods. Snow is possible, while the city’s museums, restaurants and historic interiors make it workable for a winter city break.
Scores and crowd levels are my own judgement; temperatures are monthly averages. Higher scores are better: quieter, cheaper and more pleasant.
