SZPITALNA STREET (ULICA SZPITALNA)

This street, which runs from the Słowacki theater to the center of the Old Town (Mały Rynek), has an old-fashioned charm. Much quieter and less frequented by tourists, the stores and restaurants here are generally more luxurious. At no. 24, you'll find a former synagogue that was converted to Orthodox worship after the Second World War. The Byzantine-inspired interior decorations are well worth a visit, though only during services.
