Marcel Burger - Third time's the charm

View over Kraków on a fresh January day

I have been taking photos ever since my uncle and aunt inspired me to buy my first DSL at the age of 16. I was born in Holland, moved to the eastern part of the Netherlands, immigrated to Sweden. Here I wrote a travel guide book as thick as a brick about my new home country, was a news and radio correspondent and was a teacher in Swedish schools. 15 years after settling in the land of the Vikings, I popped over to the southern side of the Baltic Sea, and found my third home in Kraków, Poland. The third time's the charm.

Autumn has fully arrived in Kraków, tuning the city into a colourful spectacle as the trees enter their "indian summer". One of the best spots to witness it all is on the banks of the Wisła River, where a new bridge with fantastic views was opened earlier in October.

Kraków • at the Wisła River

25 October 2026 • Autumn has arrived in Kraków, turning the trees at the banks of the Wisła River into a colourful party. How great that just at this moment, the city opened a new bridge for pedestrian and cyclists: the Kładka Schodowa (or Schodowa Bridge). It offers great new views never before possible to get unless one flew a drone.
