Most of the markets kick off in late November, with many running until early January.

So it’s time to get planning, grab a few friends and visit one of these best Christmas markets in the world.

Mulled wine, gifts for loved ones and that wonderful Christmas feeling here we come…

Budapest has been a permanent player on lists like these in recent years, so it is no surprise that it came in 23rd place, which is quite flaterring considering the number of Christmas markets all over the world.

There’s over 100 stalls in Vörösmarty Square, with local trinkets, craft workshops, children’s puppet shows and much more to explore. It’s no wonder so many people consider this one of the best European Christmas Markets.
