Muzeum Książąt Czartoryskich w Krakowie - najczęściej odwiedzane krakowskie muzeum przez nasze zagraniczne grupy .
***********************************************************************
Jedno z najstarszych muzeów w Polsce. Zostało otwarte w 1878 r. Jego początki sięgają roku 1801 i zbiorów księżnej Izabeli Czartoryskiej, prezentowanych w jej puławskim muzeum. Z końcem XIX wieku zbiory przeniesiono do Krakowa. W muzeum znajduje się kolekcja znakomitych dzieł sztuki, pamiątek historycznych i bibliotecznych zgromadzonych przez członków książęcego rodu Czartoryskich. Wśród najcenniejszych dzieł są obrazy Dama z gronostajem Leonarda da Vinci i Krajobraz z miłosiernym Samarytaninem Rembrandta Harmenszoona van Rijna. Dama z gronostajem (zwana też Damą z łasiczką) to chyba największa "gwiazda" całego zbioru. Wielu zwiedzających przychodzi do tego muzeum tylko i wyłącznie aby zobaczyć ten obraz. Dzieło pędzla Leonardo da Vinci to jeden z tych obrazów, które zna praktycznie każdy człowiek na świecie. Obraz trafił w ręce rodu Czartoryskich w roku 1788, kiedy to Adam Czartoryski kupił go w prezencie swojej matce Izabeli. Dzisiejsza wartość rynkowa tego dzieła, szacowana jest na co najmniej 1 miliard PLN . Ciekawostką jest to, że obraz do dzisiaj jest powodem wielu sprzeczek, ponieważ nie ustalono dokładnie jakie zwierzę trzyma na rękach owa dama z obrazu. Jedni twierdzą, że to łasiczka inni obstają przy gronostaju. Minimalne różnice pomiędzy tymi dwoma gatunkami nie pomagają w rozwiązaniu zagadki.

Wrocławska Pergola przy Hali Stulecia 🌸
Jest jedną z tych lokacji, które zostały wręcz stworzone, aby odwiedzać je jesienią.
Dwa ogromne rzędy słupów rozciągają się przez niemal 640 metrów. Całość pokrywa piękna charakterystyczna winorośl, która jesienią zmienia swój kolor na złocistą żółć, nadającą zapierającego dech w piersiach widoku.
