In December, Europe is at its most beautiful: glittering lights, decorated streets, towering Christmas trees and the scent of mulled wine.

Strasbourg, rightly called the Christmas capital of Europe, turns into a true winter fairy tale. It hosts one of the oldest Christmas markets in Europe, with the Gothic Notre-Dame Cathedral soaring above the city.

Festive Saarbrücken offers an evening market with a Christmas tree and twinkling lights. Luxembourg welcomes you with the Grand Ducal Palace and fortifications lit by thousands of lights.

And in Trier, Germany's oldest city, wooden stalls with pastries, sweets and souvenirs stand beside the Porta Nigra and St. Peter's Cathedral.
