Artificial intelligence has shown where to go for Corpus Christi. Top 10 Polish places for a long weekend

AI helps us with work and silliness , like funny graphics or memes , but who said it can't also be a tourist inspiration ? I fired up Chat GPT and asked it the following question:

Analyze the opinions, reviews and tourist rankings available online and indicate the 10 most attractive tourist attractions in Poland to see during the June long weekend (Corpus Christi).

Did the answers surprise me? Yes and no. On the list of 10 places you will find both sure bets that each of you has probably heard of, as well as lesser-known tourist attractions waiting to be discovered .

To start with, an absolute classic, namely Kraków . The capital of Małopolska is primarily the Wawel Royal Castle , the Cloth Hall , cafes at the Main Square , atmospheric Kazimierz , but also great places for walks and many exhibitions and concerts.

If the number of tourists doesn't scare you, you definitely won't be bored in the City of Krakow !

During your trip to Krakow , you can also visit Wieliczka and the famous Salt Mine . The UNESCO- listed site delights with its underground corridors and sculptures carved in salt.

Chat GPT also adds that exploring underground corridors can be a godsend on a hot June day. Smart!

From the South we move to the North and go to visit one of the most beautiful places in Poland , the Old Town of Gdańsk . What makes the Tri-City ideal for a city break during a long weekend? Certainly its comprehensive offer, which will interest families, couples and singles. And above all... the proximity of beaches and the sea, which always makes a good atmosphere .

In the middle of the season I would probably advise against it, but in June the Tatras may be a bit less crowded. And yet there is something to do here. Those who like movement can check out the mountain trails , those who like peace can sample regional cuisine . In addition, AI recommends a walk through the Kościeliska Valley , relaxation in the thermal baths or a trip to Giewont .

The capital city is still attracting tourists from other countries, but also from our countrymen. Warsaw offers many "must see" places: the Old Town with the Royal Castle , the Royal Łazienki , the Warsaw Uprising Museum and the Vistula boulevards , and this is just a fraction of what you can see.

The UNESCO World Heritage Site of Białowieża Forest is the last large and old natural forest in the European Lowlands . Nature walks, bison and birdsong. Can it get any better?

A popular tourist trail running through the Kraków-Częstochowa Upland leads through the ruins of medieval castles, such as Ogrodzieniec and Pieskowa Skała . A great option for those who, in addition to relaxation, would like to immerse themselves in the world of history.

The complex of underground corridors from World War II and Książ Castle rising above the Pełcznica Valley. If you prefer less crowded places than Zakopane or Krakow , it is worth choosing this place.

A classic Baltic Sea holiday in Kołobrzeg may be a bit of a cliché, but let's be honest... It always works. A wide beach , a charming pier , a lighthouse and a promenade . The weather forecast predicts a warm long weekend, so no one rules out sunbathing !

Park Gródek in Jaworzno is sometimes called the Polish Maldives . Not without reason! This place delights with turquoise water , wooden jetties , arboretum and flower meadows . A walk, a picnic, a photo session? There are many possibilities, and one thing is certain: You will relax here like nowhere else.

As you can see, Chat GPT has selected both historic cities bustling with life, green oases of peace, and less obvious shots. Which one particularly convinced you?
