Since 2015 the Christmas market has been spread across five sites, with the most chalets located in the 200-year-old Place de la R\u00e9publique which is where you\u2019ll also find the city\u2019s famous Christmas Pyramid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The markets themselves circle around Metz\u2019s iconic 800-year-old gothic Cathedral and the scene is lit up by the colorful sights and joyful sounds of a carousel, a Ferris wheel, and an ice skating rink. While these are great for families, at Place de la Com\u00e9die there is an entire market dedicated to gourmet food where the sweet aromas of cinnamon, spices, and pine fill the air and traditional cuisine is cooked on-site.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Nice<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While known for its warm Riviera weather, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omio.com\/trains\/nice\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Nice<\/a> can still feel quite chilly by December and its gaudy Christmas Market comes alive. Though the palm trees lining the Promenade des Anglais always give away the market\u2019s Mediterranean location, over 70 mountain chalets will spread out from Jardin Albert 1er to Place Massena amid an enchanted forest of 600 fir trees.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As well as the usual carol singing, look out for a series of special Christmas concerts at various locations and a free live theater for kids.

And in true Parisian fashion, they pop up in some spectacular locations. Perhaps the most picturesque is the March\u00e9 de No\u00ebl Notre Dame, situated across the Seine with the famous medieval towers as a backdrop as you warm yourself with some hot mulled wine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>La Magie de No\u00ebl (The Magic of Christmas) in Tuileries Garden is the biggest market and attracts more than 13 million visitors each holiday season, but for something smaller and no less beautiful head up to hilly Montmartre.

Along with its size, another point of significance is that Reims was the site of the first French Christmas celebration when, in 496, the legendary King Clovis and his 3,000 warriors were baptized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Strasbourg<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The oldest and grandest of all the French Christmas markets, there has been a festive market in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.omio.com\/trains\/strasbourg\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Strasbourg<\/a> since 1570 (then called the Christkindelsm\u00e4rik &#8211; \u201cMarket of the Infant Jesus\u201d). This border-straddling city in eastern France boasts more than 300 stalls, and over in Place Kl\u200b\u200b\u00e9ber visitors can look up at the glittering (and rather imposing) sight of Europe\u2019s largest Christmas tree.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Take a stroll down the shimmering rue des Hallebardes, with its magnificent crystal chandeliers, and make sure to sample the uniquely Alsation cakes at the markets, including kugelhopf cake, berawecka cake, and traditional bredle cakes. They\u2019ll blend perfectly with your mulled wine as you take in the gorgeous Christmas colors beneath the soaring Cath\u00e9drale Notre Dame de Strasbourg.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-6 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"314\" data-id=\"45634\" src=\"https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/place-kleber-Strasbourg-1024x314.png\" alt=\"Strasbourg's Place Kleber\" class=\"wp-image-45634\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/place-kleber-Strasbourg-1024x314.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/place-kleber-Strasbourg-300x92.png 300w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/place-kleber-Strasbourg-768x235.png 768w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/place-kleber-Strasbourg-1536x470.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/place-kleber-Strasbourg-1568x480.png 1568w, https:\/\/www.omio.co.uk\/window-seat\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/11\/place-kleber-Strasbourg.png 1920w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Bathe in the lights of Europe&#8217;s largest Christmas tree on Strasbourg&#8217;s Place Kleber.
