It’s that time of the year again. Looking for some of the best ways to spend time on or before Christmas can be a daunting task. There’s just so much to do and so much to see. And one of the festival’s best experiences is visiting Christmas markets all over Europe.
Although the primary purpose of any Christmas market is, above all, shopping. But even if you’re not a seasoned or seasonal shopaholic, you can still find plenty to do in Christmas markets. You can explore the local cultures, cuisine, and comforts. Spending your time tasting Christmas treats and buying exciting stuff is surely a better way than spending time at home.
The best way to explore Europe in Christmas is to plan coach trips to Christmas markets. Here are some of the best of these markets.
Vienna, Austria
Vienna has one of the oldest Christmas market traditions in Europe, dating all the way back to the 13th century. The excitement only increases up a notch with each passing year. And it shows. You can spend your time there on carousel rides or buying a number of items from miniature houses to woollen hats.
Strasbourg, France
Any time of the year is a good time to visit Strasbourg, France. But if you want to experience the place in all its joyful glory, you should visit its Christmas markets. There are about a dozen themed areas, known as ‘villages’, each with their own specialties.
Stuttgart, Germany
If there’s one reason to visit Stuttgart in Germany during the Christmas, it’s to breathe in the air full of the scents of spiced wine and fresh pine. Roaming around in the cobbled streets, you can visit many, if not all, of the 300 Christmas stalls.
