The <strong>tradition of arranging flower carpets<\/strong> has become an interesting and colourful tourist attraction. Religious ceremonies of Corpus Christi are celebrated in this special way in <strong>Spycimierz in the \u0141\u00f3dzkie Voivodeship<\/strong> and in four villages <strong>in the Opolskie Voivodeship: Olszowa, Zimna W\u00f3dka, Zalesie \u015al\u0105skie and Klucz.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Today\u2019s Corpus Christi celebrations are held on the Thursday after the feast of the Holy Trinity. A moving holiday, it takes place 60 days after Easter, at the earliest on 21 May and at the latest on 24 June. The procession is led by priests from a given parish. Participants stop at sacral important places of worship, especially roadside crosses and shrines. Four field altars are set up along the way for the procession to stop at and listen to the gospel. The path that the procession takes is decorated with twigs and flowers. Children in folk costumes sprinkle flowers on the road, while all sing songs and litanies. This holiday looks particularly attractive in <strong>Spycimierz<\/strong>,&nbsp; where people create <strong>flower carpets <\/strong>in a tradition of which goes back 200 years. Among other Corpus Christi processions&nbsp; celebrated in Poland, it stands out with the marking of the procession by means of arranging flower carpet to worship God, who, according to the folk tradition,&nbsp; \u201cdescends from the altars\u201d on this day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer

class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Krak\u00f3w\u2019s nativity scenes<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The first entry on the UNESCO list of intangible cultural heritage of humanity from Poland recognised<strong> the Krak\u00f3w nativity scenes <\/strong>(entered in 2018). <strong>Building nativity scenes, or<em> szopkas<\/em>,<\/strong> is a traditional craft passed down from generation to generation, which has ensured its continuous existence since the 19<sup>th<\/sup> century. It is closely associated with Krak\u00f3w, where <strong>an annual competition<\/strong> is organised, during the final of which you can admire these wonderful handicrafts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Tree beekeeping culture<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It includes knowledge, skills, practices and beliefs connected to wild bees breeding in living tree trunks (tree hives) or cut-down tree trunks (log hives). Polish beekeepers take care of bees in a special way by trying to recreate the primeval living conditions in tree hives without interfering with the natural life cycle of the bees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Falconry<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to the unique advantages of our country in the form of large areas of forests and meadows, Poland has always enjoyed good conditions for hunting, which has a rich, deeply rooted tradition in our country. One of the more noble forms of hunting is <strong>falconry<\/strong>, which appeared in Poland around the 10<sup>th<\/sup> century. Modern falconers are not only hunters, but also breeders, who began the reintroduction of the peregrine falcon. They cultivate the tradition of training and breeding hunting birds. In 2021, Polish falconry as a living tradition was inscribed on the UNESCO list of intangible cultural heritage of humanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Timber rafting traditions<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to the Rafter Fraternity of St. Barbara, reactivated timber rafting is still a living tradition. It all began with transporting wood using natural water flows. Logs of coniferous trees were first tied to make large rafts, which were then chained into strings. Such large rafts, even about 100 m long, were used to move wood from <strong>Ulan\u00f3w<\/strong>, first on <strong>the San<\/strong>, then <strong>the Vistula<\/strong>, all the way to <strong>Gda\u0144sk<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Located on <strong>the Tanew <\/strong>estuary to <strong>the San<\/strong>, <strong>Ulan\u00f3w,<\/strong> called the \u201cGda\u0144sk of Galicia\u201d has been an important rafting centre since the 16<sup>th<\/sup> century.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cultivated until this day, <strong>rafters\u2019 traditions<\/strong> also include many other elements of intangible heritage, such as their own specific dialect, names, songs and rituals. Especially spectacular is the rite of promoting new adepts to ordinary or honorary rafters. Traditionally called a baptism, it takes place on a raft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Polonaise<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Polonaise is one of the oldest Polish national dances, with its history dating back to the Old Slavic times. It is known for its majestic, elegant and solemn character. The Polonaise is a court dance that has been performed for centuries at various celebrations such as weddings, balls and other ceremonies. However, it is not only a dance, it is also an expression of Polish culture, history and national identity. It inspired the work of many composers, including Fryderyk Chopin, Johann Sebastian Bach, and Georg Friedrich H\u00e4ndel. Currently, it is the most taught dance at schools as it opens many celebrations, including popular prom balls.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p>As stated at the 2003 UNESCO Convention, intangible heritage encompasses customs, oral tradition, knowledge and skills, along with related objects and cultural space that a given community, group or individual recognised as part of their heritage. This kind of heritage is passed down from generation to generation and is constantly being recreated by communities and groups in relation to their environment, history and relationship to nature. For a given community, intangible heritage is a source of a sense of identity and continuity. There are many such items in Poland. You will find them on <a href=\"https:\/\/ndk.nid.pl\/Dziedzictwo_niematerialne\/Krajowa_inwentaryzacja\/Krajowa_lista_NDK\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>the<\/strong> <strong>National List of Intangible Cultural Heritage <\/strong><\/a>kept by <strong>the National Institute of Cultural Heritage<\/strong>.
