Shop at the European Christmas Markets

“I enjoyed the vibe of the Christmas markets, and they’re definitely more magical than in the United States. The markets themselves ARE equal or better than what I’ve seen in the US and Canada, but that being said, I think most of that magic comes from being set in the market square of a genuine medieval town rather than the quality of the markets themselves. The markets were a bit different than I expected in several ways.”

“I’m usually a bigger fan of the markets in small towns and not so much the big cities, but this market had the most over-the-top christmas lights and decor that I saw in Europe, and I think that more than made up for it. There were parks next to the two largest markets which made them feel less crowded and claustrophobic.”
