If the yuletide season in the United States is like a scene from a Norman Rockwell painting, Christmas in Europe is straight out of a fairy tale storybook. With a cup of hot wine in one hand and a camera in the other, there’s no better time of year to wander down narrow cobblestone alleys in medieval towns adorned with colorful lights. When it’s time to choose your destination, consider booking a travel deal for one of the charming Christmas towns listed below.

3 Enchanting Places to Spend Christmas in Europe

1. Prague, Czech Republic

With its Gothic architecture, cobblestoned paths and picturesque Christmas markets, the medieval city of Prague is among the most magical holiday destinations in Europe. As you do your outdoor Christmas shopping, treat yourself to a cup of Czech mulled wine and the city’s famous Trdelník, a fire cooked pastry made from rolled dough and topped with sugar and spices.

2. Leipzig, Germany

The world-famous European Christmas markets originated in Germany, and Leipzig is home to one of its oldest dating back to 1458. In addition to sampling gingerbread and admiring the handmade crafts, you can also venture beyond the markets to enjoy the city’s incredible history and intricate architecture.

3. Strasbourg, France

Strasbourg is the city on the border between France and Germany known for its fairytale half-timbered houses and breathtaking Gothic cathedral. You can gaze upon one of the largest Christmas trees in the main square of the historic quarter, and then walk along the river to admire the festive lights and charming architecture.
