Zielona Góra is located near a hill called the Wine Hill or the Green Hill. The Wine hill…… doesn’t it sound intriguing? I think it does.
The city is famous for the grape harvest. It is the largest and most famous wine festival in Poland, which takes place in the first half of September. It lasts 9 days. That’s why, in Poland we call Zielona Góra the capital of wine. A unique moment of wine festival is the parade in which residents, tourists, stilt walkers, theater actors take part. Everybody follows the king of wine, Bacchus. Just like Wrocław has its dwarfs, Zielona Góra has its own Mini Bacchuses (cute little figures).

I bought wine from Zielona Góra twice- once a glass of wine while visiting (50 zł/glass), and a sparkling wine in a local shop there (100 zł/bottle), tasted sour as hell, I felt robbed. Never again.
