Christmas
in Prague is a magical time and December is undoubtedly
one of the nicest months of the year in this beautiful
city. Christmas markets are up, shop windows are
bright and beautiful, Christmas trees adorn the town
squares and the early dusk is filled with warm light.
People are nicer to each other, the mood is festive.
And if all is covered in fresh, white snow, what
more can you ask for?
Prague at Christmas is a special place,
so bundle up and take a stroll. If you get cold,
have some hot chocolate at a café, stop by a tea
room or buy a cup of mulled wine or grog from a
street vendor.
You will see the signs
of Christmas approaching as early as October when
Czech Christmas ornaments start appearing in shop
windows. Around the end of November, Christmas markets
open up and a large Christmas tree is erected
and lit on the Old Town Square.
Christmas mood marks the month
of December until its very end when New Year's celebrations
take over. |
