Venice, Italy: St. Mark's Basilica
More info about travel to Venice: Among Europe's churches, the Byzantine marvel of St. Mark's stands alone. After the saint's remains were smuggled here in 828, Venice took his symbol (the winged lion) as their own. Built with pillaged materials, some describe the church's eclectic style as Early Ransack. The outside is a riot of domes, columns, and statues; the interior is covered with mosaics, colored marbles, and oriental treasures.

10. Various shots of coffins
STORYLINE:
The Wawel Royal Castle in Krakow contains the cathedral where Pope John Paul II celebrated his first mass as a priest.
John Paul celebrated his first ever mass in the cathedral chapel on 2 November 1946.
The cathedral's priest, Roman Ledzki, says the event is commemorated every year on 2 November with a special service.
When he became pope, John Paul II initially wanted to be named after the patron saint of Krakow, Stanislas, who is buried in the cathedral.
Instead, the then 58-year-old former Cardinal of Krakow took the name Pope John Paul II and became the first non-Italian pope in 455 years.
The cathedral, whose priest describes it as the most important church in Poland, is the burial place of Polish kings and other notables.
It is also where John Paul would be buried if he were to be interred in Poland.
Formerly known as Karol Joseph Wojtyla, the pope was born in Wadowice Poland on May 18, 1920 and was named Cardinal of Krakow at the age of 47.
Cardinal Wojtyla began to work to promote political change in Poland, an activity he would continue as Pope.

The Land of Faith - Poland ( Eucharistic Miracle)
In addition to hosting the World Youth Day in 2016 in Cracow, Poland also celebrates the 1050th anniversary of its conversion to Christianity. Since the year 966 the Catholic Church has played an important religious, cultural and political role in the country. During times of foreign and communism oppression the Catholic Church was a cultural guard in the fight for independence and national survival.
On Christmas Day in 2013 during the first Holy Mass, this verse was part of the Gospel reading: The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. (John 1:14) While distributing Holy Communion, by accident one of polish priests dropped the consecrated Host on the floor. He picked it up, and he put it in the Chalice with water to the the Tuberculum to let it to dissolve. Things like this happen sometimes, and usually the Holy host dissolves on its own—but this one did not.................

73rd Annual Christmas Crib Competition in Krakow, Poland
December 3rd marks the 73rd Annual Kraków Christmas Crib Competition & Exhibition. What on earth is this, pray tell? One of Kraków’s most unique and singular Christmas traditions is the popular creation of ‘Christmas cribs’ or ‘szopki’ as they’re known locally. Something of a strange cross between a nativity scene, gingerbread house and dollhouse, szopki are the bizarre result of a slowly evolving folk tradition that dates back to the Middle Ages. Originally used as mini puppet theatres upon which morality plays were performed during the holiday season, szopki gradually became more whimsical, secular and satirical in nature, leading to an ironic ban on them on church property in the 1700s and a prohibition against their construction in the 19th century by which time they had developed into a powerful political tool used in the cafes and cabarets of the Old Town to criticise the occupying powers. Upon Poland’s return to the world map after World War I, the szopki tradition was re-embraced becoming the celebrated custom it is today.
Popularised as a way for 19th century masons and other craftsmen to make some extra money during the drizzly autumn months, szopki are now made by all walks of life; in fact szopki dynasties have developed as generations of the same family build new elaborate szopki every year. Using a variety of lightweight materials and covering them with coloured foil, ribbon and other shiny bits, a typical szopka is bright and cheerful and attempts to integrate the city’s topography into the traditional Bethlehem nativity scene. Though called ‘Christmas cribs’ in English, szopki look more like castles or cathedrals (in fact they in absolutely no way resemble cribs), the general rule being that they incorporate characteristics of Kraków’s range of historic architectural styles.

STORYLINE:
Poles in the southern Polish town of Krakow, where Pope John Paul II once served as bishop and cardinal, mourned his death on Saturday night.
The Wawel Castle's Zygmunt bell rang across the city to signal his passing.
Weeping mourners gathered beside the Bishop's Office in Krakow, where the pope once lived, and bowed their heads in prayer.
The pope is deeply loved in mainly Roman Catholic Poland, where his 26-year pontificate has served as a source of great national pride.
Most popes in recent centuries have been buried in the St Peter's Basilica at the Vatican.
John Paul's wishes have not been made public and many in Poland are speculating he may be laid to rest alongside Polish kings in Krakow's Wawel Cathedral.
Meanwhile, in the pope's hometown of Wadowice, people wept at the news that the pontiff had died.
Many of them learnt of his death at the end of a special Mass in the church where John Paul II worshipped as a boy.

Wooooo! The Old Town of Krakow Poland is an absolute MUST for any European backpacking trip. This place is an absolute 5/5.
It's photogenic, it's historical, it's cultural, it's safe & clean, there's great food, and it's not far from tourist hot spots -- the salt mine and Auschwitz. This place is great!
We explored with our buddy Farell Salvador during the morning, until he had to catch a plane to London! Check out his channel here:
After he left, we shopped for some souvenirs, had some incredible food!!, and really just enjoyed the incredible ambiance of the Old Town. So much history and so much beauty... wow!
We stayed in a hostel in the old town, which was clean and affordable. There are plenty of options for you to choose from if you are thinking of doing the same. And you should! We absolutely, positively, definitely recommend it! Krakow's Old Town is a MUST!

Trumpeter of Kraków
Every hour on the hour the trumpeter of Kraków blasts the Henjal Mariacki (Kraków anthem, called Saint Mary's Dawn) which can be heard throughout the town center.
To visit, head to buy a ticket at the visitors office (just across the street to the east from the basilica) and climb the stairs where you can watch the trumpeter from the tallest tower.
