This year sees a cool -- and even bigger! -- new Christmas market opening right in the heart of the city. From November 28-Jan 1, Plac Defilad (right in front of the Palace of Culture and Science) will get transformed into a bustling Christmas fair. This one has been dubbed a "Winter Village" or "Christmas Fairgrounds" and will include 160 wooden cottages, a 15-meter-high ferris wheel (55/45 zł), a carousel, and a santa house. Plus, tons of crafts! People from all over Poland will be here selling their handmade and homemade goods. There will be winter and Christmas specialties -- from hot mulled wine to gingerbread and beyond -- all over the market, as well as concerts, events, and even film screenings! 
This is the Christmas market of our dreams!
