A cover from another beautiful town in Poland 🇵🇱 

Kudowa-Zdrój, is a town located below the Table Mountains in Kłodzko County, Lower Silesian Voivodeship, in the southwestern part of Poland. It has a population of around 10,000 and is located at the Polish-Czech border. 

Kudowa-Zdrój is one of the oldest European spa towns where heart and circulatory system diseases were cured. The downtown area features a park styled on 17th century revival, with exotic plants and a mineral water pump room. Due to its location, the town is famous for tourism, hiking and as the departure point for trips. 

The town has several historical and heritage sites such as the Chapel of Skulls within the Czermna district of Kudowa, an ossuarycontaining the bones or skeletal remains of thousands. It is one of six of its kind in Europe. Another site is the Basilica of Wambierzyce, nicknamed "Silesian Jerusalem", and one of the most popular Catholic pilgrimage destinations in Poland.

Szczeliniec Wielki - the highest peak (919 m) at Table Mountains, in the Table Mountains National Park. It belongs to the Crown of Polish Mountains and is one of the biggest tourist attractions of the Sudetes, the landscape reserve and viewing terraces with panoramic views of the Sudetes. The highest point is a rock called "Armchair of Great Grandfather" 

Bledne Skaly  - Although they are called the Errant Rocks in English, Błędne Skały looks almost intentional. As perfectly chiseled paths lead visitors on hikes, their imaginations can run wild among the natural forms of the rocks nestled near the Table Mountains of Poland.

 Thanks Wojtek for the postcards and the envelope with the cachets of the beautiful national parks :) I am sure you had a great trek in these mountains and a good time !
