Visitors can discover unique handmade wooden sculptures (e.g., grolle for friendship drinks), intricate lace, hand-knitted woolens, and locally produced ceramics. These shops offer a glimpse into the region's cultural heritage and provide opportunities to purchase authentic souvenirs or gifts. Prices vary widely depending on the item and craftsmanship. Most shops are open daily during tourist seasons, with reduced hours in shoulder periods. A perfect way to explore local culture and find unique items.
