Christmas is coming quickly and there is no better place to enjoy the festive spirit than at the top European Christmas markets.
When planning your next winter getaway, why not visit one of the most beautiful markets in the world?
The Prague Christmas markets in the Czech Republic are known for their magical atmosphere, local Christmas traditions, great shopping, and delicious food. These are just a few of the reasons why it’s one of the best Christmas markets in Europe.
As Czechs, who have been living in Prague for a few years, we visit the Christmas markets in the Czech capital a lot. In fact, it’s a big part of Czech Christmas tradition to visit the market.

In general, prices in the Czech Republic are lower than in Western Europe so you will get much better value for your money in Prague at the Christmas market.
