Explore Krakow
Nowadays the Krakow Christmas market begins in late November, in the shape of scores of wooden stalls. They sell a wide range of varied Christmas decorations, gifts, toys, sweets and other foods. Local artisans, such as blacksmiths and carvers, present their crafts. Besides shopping one can enjoy hot, nutritious dishes and delicious mulled wine. Another attraction is the occasional free entertainment, usually provided by children ensembles and village artists performing carols.
