1. Vienna, Austria
Known for its magical atmosphere, Vienna’s Christkindlmarkt is a feast for the senses. Sip on warm mulled wine as you browse stalls filled with ornaments, artisanal crafts, and delicious Austrian pastries.
2. Strasbourg, France
Often called the “Capital of Christmas,” Strasbourg’s market is one of the oldest in Europe. Twinkling lights, traditional Alsatian food, and the stunning backdrop of the Strasbourg Cathedral make this market unforgettable.
