Lonely Planet review

This wide boulevard of ul Krakowskie Przedmieście, running from Castle Sq to Nowy Świat, is the start of the Royal Way. It begins proudly with St Anne's Church , which is arguably the most ornate church in the city. It miraculously escaped major damage during WWII, which explains why it sports an original trompe l'œil ceiling, a Rococo high altar and gorgeous organ.

The façade is also Baroque in style, although there are neoclassical touches here and there, and the detached belfry is thoroughly neo-Renaissance. At the top of the belfry is a viewing platform, which offers superb views over the Old Town.
