One of the many things I miss about Europe are the markets. Christmas markets and Easter markets in particular. There is a wide variety of things to see and buy including local food, crafts, cookies, porcelain, furs, lace, along with local musical performances. Here are some of my favorite Christmas market photos from Krakow and beyond. Wesołych Świąt!
One of the entrances to the market.
The entrance with the Rynek Glowny in the background.
SO many cookies from a local cookie shop.
Very important on a cold day or night – hot wine.
Wooden kitchen toys and wooden toys.
Manger scene.
Ornaments and pottery – very popular.
Gloves and hats and scarves.
One of the trees in the main square at night.
A polish Santa. 😉
A bunch of Polish Santas in Lublin.
And this is how the Santas in Lublin deliver the presents.
I love traveling and have been lucky enough to do a lot of it across the United States, most of eastern Canada and Europe. Here are some of my favorite places and memories from Europe. Hopefully there will be many more photos once travel is allowed again. Additionally, I am a real estate market analyst focusing on housing and senior housing issues and this had led me to travel all over for work. I have conducted research in Poland and the U.S. housing and senior issues, creating original data, and publishing results in a variety of publications. My book about senior housing issues in Poland is now available on amazon. https://tinyurl.com/yxml38bo. It too has some unique photos in it.
