A Magical Day in Strasbourg: A Guide to the Christmas Market
When it comes to Christmas magic, few places rival the charm of Strasbourg. Known as the “Capital of Christmas,” it’s a dream destination for anyone seeking festive wonder. This year, instead of heading to Thailand as usual, I decided to embrace the season fully with a long-awaited trip to Strasbourg’s legendary Christmas market. After years of missed opportunities, either due to sold-out tickets or steep prices, I booked my journey early in September. The result? An unforgettable day surrounded by twinkling lights, mouthwatering delicacies, and the enchanting streets of this historic city.

2024 : A Magical Christmas Visit to Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte
It had been several years since I last spent Christmas in Europe. This year, a trip to the enchanting Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte brought that festive magic back to life. Three days before our visit, a light snowfall had blanketed the capital, creating a picturesque winter backdrop. On the day of our trip, the weather was unexpectedly mild, 13 degrees Celsius on the thermometer. Perfect for a leisurely stroll through the castle and its gardens.
