Tourists delighted with Christmas market in Strasbourg
As the Christmas tide comes closer, Strasbourg decorates itself at its best. This Christmas capital has been ruling the throne of the best Christmas markets for generations now. Famously celebrated for its extraordinary joyous atmosphere, Strasbourg attracts millions of visitors every year to experience the authenticity of Christmas.
The Christmas market is expanded across ten locations and beyond, all placed within the Grande lle region.
Strasbourg happens to be the capital city of the Grand Eastern district, officially regarded as Alsace, in northeastern France. A district that joins hands for rich history, culture, celebratory traditions, and boundaries with Germany.
The divided border of these two distinctive customs and cultures gave birth to a French-inspired German accent regarded as Alsatian and a Franco-German culture.
The biggest and the most popular Christmas market in France is the Strasbourg Christmas market.
It also exists as one of the most famous Christmas markets in Europe. The market, named Christkindelsmarik in Alsatian and Marches de Noel in French, was first inaugurated in the year 1570, actually labelling it as France’s oldest Christmas market.
Each year, the Strasbourg Christmas Market starts at the end of November and merrily serves visitors till the end of December. At the entrance of the Christmas Market, every building in the area displays some Christmas decorations as the city braces itself for the best of the best decor for its Christmas markets.
