Although I do not know so much about the ornaments themselves, this is where you will experience the most interesting culture. this is where you will find things that represent how the rest of the world looks at Poland in a stereotypical fashion. Be careful though, watch what you are buying...Poland has fallen victim to the Chinese importation culture as much as the rest of the world...So just because it looks Polish does not mean it is!!! And by the way, Christmas is BIG TIME in Poland...Not big time gift giving like it is in the U.S....But they take christmas very seriously, they celebrate the true meaning of christmas. Prepare yourself for what may be an experience like you have never been a part of...Oh, and take a nice suit!!! ZAKOPANE, ZAKOPANE, ZAKOPANE.
