?Gdańsk Christmas market is probably the most romantic Christmas market in Europe where you can find the fairy-tale Christmas fairs situated in the historical center of Gdańsk with its unique atmosphere and beautiful scenery. The streets and squares would be illuminated by colorful Christmas lights, and visitors will find many festive displays on the streets only for this special time of year such as the two-level Gdańsk Carousel, food and drink wooden stalls offering ethnic culinary specialties, craft workshops, and street performances. Do you know that the Gdańsk Christmas market was also nominated as the only one from Poland for the “Best European Christmas Market 2020” award In 2019? The Gdańsk market is definitely worth a visit.

?As one of the most incredible cities in Europe, the capital of Poland, Warsaw is very impressive with its historic center declared a Unesco World Heritage. Visitors can find two Christmas markets here, the main Christmas market is held in Castle Square in front of the Royal Castle where you will be captivated by the giant colorful Christmas Tree and the abundance of colors and smells coming from the wooden stalls. In addition to seeing the stunning Christmas decorations and tasting local treats, ice-skating around the mermaid statue in the Old Town Square would also be an awesome experience. Another Christmas market can be found in front of the Palace of Culture and Science packed with lovely wooden stalls filled with ceramics, jewelry, candles, amber, hand-made crafts.
