Bruges Christmas Markets - An enchanting city best experienced at Christmas
The magical charm of Medieval Bruges is undeniable and is even more appealing at Christmas time. The festive season kicks off early with the acclaimed Bruges Christmas markets open from late November. Located in the spectacular historic market Square, it becomes a wintery wonderland of shimmering street illuminations and quaint nativity displays. There is plenty of family orientated fun attractions such as open air ice skating and a funfair and it really is a bustling hive of activity throughout the day and night. Other Bruges Christmas markets are much lower key yet just as atmospheric. Browse through the elegant art and crafts and flower stalls found at Simon Stevinplein Square which still enjoys a timeless, almost rural ambience.
