Zalipie [zaˈlipjɛ] is a small rural village in south-eastern Poland, in Gmina Olesno, Dąbrowa County, Lesser Poland Voivodeship.[1] It is approximately 7 kilometres (4 mi) west of Olesno, 13 km (8 mi) north-west of Dąbrowa Tarnowska, and 68 km (42 mi) 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]
