Which is better Wroclaw or Krakow?

Having been to both and loving both cities I definitely recommend Krakow over Wroclaw, even though I loved both cities. Krakow is Poland, has always been Poland and always will be. While Wroclaw has a fascinating history and a beautiful square, Krakow is just...well, Krakow.
