Krakow Shopping Tips by LoriPori

VARIOUS SHOPS: SHOPPING IN KRAKOW

Shopping for Souvenirs??? Some products are so typically Polish and there are many souvenir shops in Krakow. Also many little stalls in the Market Square. My favourite was the cute lady dressed in Polish costume (Photo #1) selling all kinds of cute souvenirs including Krakow dragons.
Amber and silver jewellery are very popular for that special gift.
Polish food products make a nice gift. Products such as Honey - Polish Sausage - the famous Ham Krakus Morliny - pickled cucumbers or mushrooms (Rolnik).
Glass and Porcelain.
Check out the Galeria Krakowska with 270 stores and located conveniently by the Railway Station,

ALKOHOLE: POLISH VODKA

I just cracked up when I saw the sign ALKOHOLE for the first time. I don't know why, it just struck me as funny. One thing for certain, Poland produces the best Vodka in the world (so they say hehe!) Wyborowa is the most popular white Vodka brand. This is followed by Zubrowka, with the special grass to give it that wonderful, smooth taste and colour. Or the unique Goldwasser (from Gdansk) with its flakes of gold floating about inside.
