Are you starting to feel a bit of a Christmas craving? Christmas magic is unique and always fills the heart. Are you thinking of planning some trips to the Christmas markets in December? Then check this out Condé Nast Traveller has selected the 28 most beautiful Christmas markets in Europe, and two Italian cities stand out on the list, which are filled with magic at Christmas: one is a classic destination, the other a real surprise. The craving for Christmas each year comes earlier and earlier there is little to do.
In December some cities acquire a special magic all their own, thanks also to the markets that make everything particularly special, true fairy-tale settings.
The most beautiful markets in Europe and the 2 Italian ones
In Italy we have the privilege of having two of them and not too far from each other. Let’s take a look at the selected ones among the most beautiful in Italy that deserve a special mention among the 28 in Europe:
- Trento
- Bolzano
Here are the two cities selected as the most deserving in Italy. Bolzano is the oldest and most visited. The city is invaded by stalls that fill every corner of the city.
Magical and fairytale-like is Trento as well with its Christmas tree dominating the square and the thousands of little lights to make your eyes and heart sparkle.
