It is located on the banks of the Vistula and constitutes the cultural center of the country. The old town is on the list of UNESCO monuments. It is the religious and spiritual center of the country and is identified with the history of Poland. The first fortress was built on Wawel Hill. The city spread out in the Vistula valley and then universities and churches were built, reflecting the wealth of the medieval kingdoms.
