We are not at all surprised that 47 per cent of Poles chose Kraków as they dream place to live and that 73 per cent of them thought the city was the best tourist destination (as reported by PBS DGA in April 2009). Nor are we surprised that Kraków ranked in the 2006 top seven most recommended worldwide destinations, alongside the likes of Valencia and New Orleans, by Orbitz.com, one of the largest American tourist portals. We are proud that Kraków was recommended in the elite Travel Awards ranking compiled by the editors and readers of the UK daily The Guardian, who voted the picturesque city on the River Vistula as one of the world’s most interesting destinations of 2008.
Every year, millions of people visit sites that keep impressing generations of tourists. They cover thousands of kilometres to see the Kraków’s district of Kazimierz, the Main Market Square, the seat of Polish kings in the Wawel castle, to spend some time in atmospheric cafes hidden in picturesque little corners of the historic city. Garden Residents have unlimited access to this magical lifestyle of the Old Kraków. Our apartments are located just a five minutes’ walk from the mysterious Kazimierz, 10 minutes from the Royal Castle and 15 minutes walking from the unrivalled Main Square. For the shopping-minded the Galeria Kazimierz shopping centre is just three minutes away across the River Vistula and offers a host of top brand shops and a multiplex cinema.
A modern and functional home offered by Garden Residence is also a solution of the every-day problems brought about by a contemporary metropolis. With this aspect in mind we have prepared for you 500 private underground parking lots and a network of useful transport connections.
Taking advantage of its unique location between two road bridges Garden Residence ensures quick access by car to the city centre, to the main railway station and coach terminal, the Balice airport and to outgoing trunk roads connecting the city with locations to the east, south, west and north. Zabłocie is also easily accessible by the public transport system, including by night. Within a few hundred meters Garden Residents and their guests can access 18 bus and tram lines connecting them to every district of the city, as well as with the railway and coach stations and the airport.
