Targowisko pod Gubałówką

Zakopane, Poland Farmers' market

Frequently mentioned in reviews: Top-rated.online cuts through the clutter, highlighting only the reviews that are most helpful, earn the most likes, or come from the most active contributors. The open-air at the foot of Gubałówka Hill emerged organically alongside the development of Zakopane’s funicular, which opened in December 1938. As the funicular quickly drew thousands of visitors annually, vendors began setting up regional stalls around the base station, forming what is now one of Poland’s most popular mountain markets. Over the decades, the grew from simple highlander stalls into a lively bazaar of Highlander cheeses, handmade crafts, local preserves, and clothing—especially bustling during the warmer months when sheep’s-milk cheeses like oscypek and bryndza are freshly available. Be careful as it is not what I remember from 40 years ago. Most of the items are made in China. Most slippers are made from fake leather. Take your time to check the kiosks. If you see young people serving you, ask them questions about their products, do they now where it came from?. I bought nice sheep slippers for my family from actual makers, and their stand was not easy to be found, but if you search, you will find legitimate handcrafted and their people. It is heartbreaking what this place has become. I go there because I spend most of my early life here. Went to postsecondary school in Travel and Tourism. I actually believe that whoever runs Krupowki is not really originally from here, and his main goal is to make money on innocent tourists. So beware. This place is bustling with tourists during the day. Lots of leather products, wood, souvenirs, food and retail stores on the other side. However, leather are overpriced since this is a tourist spot. Great place to go A lot of shops that sell polish and not polish products. The prices are reasonable. In front of the shopping there is cable car that goes up to the mountain. Close to the shops, games and playgrounds for kids. When you visit Zakopane and would like to buy a local souvenir you must visit the located at the lower end of Krupowki. Here you will find all the local produce from sheep cheese to wooden boards, cups, plates, slippers, shawls, hats, bags and more. The is also nice just to walk around as it’s beautiful just to look at different stalls. I was surprised to see knives and guns there. The left a very good impression – you can find many leather goods at a fair price, handmade crafts, and nice souvenirs to bring back from Zakopane. I recommend visiting in the morning, as there are fewer people then; around midday it gets much more crowded. A diverse market, you will find everything you want. I recommend visiting.
