Strasbourg France 🇫🇷 Christmas 🎄✨Market lights walking tour ✨
Strasbourg is nicknamed the "Christmas Capital" (Capital de Noël), and this isn't just a tourist moniker; it reflects the rich traditions of this city located in the Alsace region on the French-German border.

Here's a tour of the Christmas atmosphere in Strasbourg:

1. A Rich History (Christkindelsmärik)
Strasbourg boasts the oldest Christmas market in France and one of the oldest in Europe, dating back to 1570. Locally, the market is known as "Christkindelsmärik" (the market for the infant Jesus).

2. Unmissable Landmarks

The Grand Sapin: Located in Place Kléber, this iconic Christmas tree typically reaches over 30 meters in height. A symbol of the city, it's adorned with thousands of twinkling lights.

Cathedral Square: Here, wooden stalls spread out beneath the majestic shadow of Notre Dame Cathedral, creating a charming Gothic scene, especially at night.

Petite France: Characterized by its traditional medieval wooden houses, this season it transforms into a work of art with lights and decorations.

3. Experience Alsatian Flavors
A visit isn't complete without sampling the traditional foods whose aromas fill the streets:

Bredele: Small biscuits in various shapes and flavors (cinnamon, ginger, anise).

Kouglof: A famous Alsatian cake with its distinctive round shape.

Hot, spicy drinks: Served in souvenir cups that tourists collect every year.
