It is official, Zagreb is once again, two years in a row
The best European christmas market... http://www.adventzagreb.com/
There are various choices, from markets to crazy busy squares with music food and drinks, from kids corners, ice skating rinks, to lovely little secluded, almost peaceful courtyards in the old uptown. That is the addition from last year. The idea came from summertime when they opened some shadowed yards of some institutes, museums, or, private houses for public, and organized cool little, very intimate concerts. So for advent they just added some heaters, warm wine, and some more lights. It is a great place to run away from crowds in top hours or busiest days since it is just a little off main streets....
Congratulations to your city! I've never seen so much festivity as your photos have revealed. I just followed your link and looked at the website.
