7Prague Christmas Market – Czech Republic

Prague is a city steeped in history, and its Christmas market adds even more charm to its gothic beauty. The main market is held in the Old Town Square, with the medieval Church of Our Lady before Týn and the Astronomical Clock Tower creating a stunning backdrop. The market offers everything from traditional Czech Christmas ornaments to hearty local foods such as klobása (grilled sausages) and trdelník (a sweet pastry). The giant Christmas tree in the square is a spectacular sight, illuminated every evening to the sound of carols.
