8Sibiu, Romania

Romania’s Sibiu may not be on everyone’s Christmas list, but it certainly deserves a spot. Nestled in the Transylvanian region, this charming town transforms into a winter wonderland during the holiday season.

The Main Square hosts one of the country’s most beautiful Christmas markets, with wooden stalls selling local crafts, mulled wine, and delicious Transylvanian treats. Since Sibiu isn’t a common holiday destination, it stays quieter, allowing visitors to enjoy its Gothic architecture, snow-covered streets, and festive atmosphere without the crowds you’d find in larger European cities.
