Strasbourg

Christmas lights on half-timbered lanes, a pink-stone cathedral and Europe at the door.
Perfect for
Couples
Families
Solo travellers
Strasbourg calls itself the Capital of Christmas, and in December it earns the name: market chalets fill a dozen squares, the Ill reflects strings of light and the cathedral rises over everything. Come for the markets, stay for an island city that rewards slow walking.
