European-Style Christmas Markets You Can Visit This Winter

"Dates open: November 27 to December 23 This year, little visitors to the Peoples Gas Holiday Market in Pittsburgh won’t be able to sit with St. Nick in his popular Santa House, but they can chat with him in real-time thanks to a new Santa Zoom: Live From the North Pole experience. When they’re not hobnobbing virtually with Kris Kringle, visitors can listen to live music, sample traditional European foods, browse dozens of decked-out chalets for gifts (including Spanish pottery and wall art made from—what else?—steel), or take a spin on the outdoor ice rink." - Lindsay Lambert Day
