Notes
The Krakow Pilsudski Bridge is named after Marshall Pilsudski, usually considered the father of Polish independence in 1918. The oldest existing bridge in Krakow (originally built 1933, re-built after the war); when constructed, it was the third one and so originally named ("The Third Bridge"). Very picturesque bridge. A typical for Krakow length of 150 m, and the typical 2-pillar construction. Width 19 m. Accommodates also the tram track. Nice views on maybe not the most interesting, but still picturesque Kazimierz district. Vistula looks a bit like a channel here.
