Zalipie is a small rural village in south-eastern Poland, in Gmina Olesno, Dąbrowa County, Lesser Poland Voivodeship.[1] It is approximately 7km (04miles) west of Olesno, 130NaN0 north-west of Dąbrowa Tarnowska, and 680NaN0 east of the regional capital Kraków.

It is known for a local custom of painting the cottages with decorative motifs. The former home of local artist Felicja Curyłowa is perhaps one of the best examples of this tradition.[2]
