How to get to SOLARIS

From the Krakow Główny central railway station and a coach station you can get to the SOLARIS Centre by tram using line 52 (in the direction of Czerwone Maki P+R). A single journey ticket costs 6,00 PLN (approx. 1,5 euro) per person. 

You have to get on the tram at the Teatr Słowackiego tram stop, which is located approx. 8-minute walk from the central railway station (see the map below). When you get off the tram at the Chmieleniec stop you should return a few steps in the direction you came from, turn left just past the Ericsson building and go straight along Luciany Frassati-Gawrońskiej street to the end (see the map below).

The journey time is approx. 30 minutes.
