Information

Romantic Vienna has plenty of appeal at any time of year with its Biedermeier architecture, famous choir and exceptional galleries, but it really lights up over the festive season with enticing Christmas markets in its most photogenic corners. With around 20 to choose from, the scent of glühwein and fresh baking hangs over the city between mid-November and Christmas. Here are some of the most appealing.

1) Wiener Christkindlmarkt, Rathausplatz

Among the lavish decorations and strings of light in Vienna’s massive main square, over 150 stalls sell hand-blown Christmas decorations and wooden toys in one of Vienna’s largest – and classiest – markets.
