"Perched on a hill, this picturesque fortress market is one of several historic Advent gatherings in the city, offering scenic views alongside seasonal stalls where the aromas of hot chestnuts and mulled wine mingle with vendors selling baubles and toys. The setting emphasizes a traditional, atmospheric holiday experience rooted in the city's long history of Advent markets." - Alison Fox Alison Fox Alison Fox is a Travel + Leisure contributor.
