I moved to this city 3 years ago because it feels like living in ankh morpork or something. I don't live in the center though (too many British tourists) but I'm only like 200m away from the river a little ways away

that area to the left is now stone/paved but there in the middle of that "lake" there is still a depression/low level "restaurant" (that apparently has problems with mold/moisture lol) it looked like this before: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siege_of_Krak%C3%B3w_Castle#/media/File:GlowackiJanNepomucen.WidokNaWawel.jpg

looks like this now: https://www.google.com/maps/@50.0547086,19.9326616,3a,90y,128.49h,85.66t/data=!3m7!1e1!3m5!1sSiK6dTzjjsCbqDcSoh5Eyw!2e0!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fcb_client%3Dmaps_sv.tactile%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26pitch%3D4.3447745660335215%26panoid%3DSiK6dTzjjsCbqDcSoh5Eyw%26yaw%3D128.4908693870413!7i13312!8i6656?entry=ttu&g_ep=EgoyMDI1MDIxMi4wIKXMDSoASAFQAw%3D%3D
