Cobblestone streets in Krakow wind toward the spires of the Royal Archcathedral, while the salt-hewn chambers of Wieliczka hide deep beneath the earth. Further north, the calm waters of the Motława reflect the colorful facades of Gdańsk, contrasting with the jagged, snow-dusted peaks of the Tatra National Park. This collection of scenes spans the salt mines, medieval squares, and mountain trails of Poland over approximately 15 minutes. It is a quiet look at the way history settles into the landscape, from the brick walls of Malbork Castle to the quiet river bends of the Dunajec.
