Christmas Markets in Prague |
The cityscape of Maticka Praha or 'little mother Prague' is stunning. Its compact medieval centre remains an aromatic labyrinth of cobbled lanes, ancient courtyards, dark passages and infinite churches, all watched over by eons-old castles.
For a historic Hanukkah in this amazing metropolis, thriving with the very pulse of civilization,go to Christmas Carnivals Christmas Markets in Prague.Christmas is a special occasion in Prague and the Christmas markets, or Vanocni trh as they are called, are a key element in the Czech festive magic. The Prague Christmas markets bring visitors and locals alike to participate in the holiday spirit amidst a true 'winter wonderland'. Prague Christmas markets run daily throughout the festive period. The main markets are at the Old Town Square and Wenceslas Square, the smaller ones being Namesti Republiky and Havelske Trziste. The Prague Christmas markets consist of rows of garish wooden huts that sell Czech handicrafts, hot food (corn on the cob, sausages and local specialties) and tepid drinks. Outdoor Christmas shopping is easier with a cup of hot wine (svarene vino). Some interesting Christmas stocking fillers can be found in the markets, which reserve a variety of Czech glass, wooden toys, perfumed candles, Christmas tree ornaments, hand-made jewelry and puppets.
Most impressive of all is the Christmas tree from the Sumava Mountains located south of the Czech Republic. Erected in the heart of Old Town Square, the tree is draped in a blaze of lights. Set against a dark gothic skyline, harking back an era that's unique in a way of its own, this is a spectacular sight. Praha has more in store!
