Where's the most Christmassy place you've been worldwide

[shinychandelier]

I mean really really Christmassy, Christmas trees/decorations and generally can't escape the Christmasness.
Ideas anyone? 🎄

Enontekio in Lapland. Extremely uncommercialised and stunning.

Essen in Germany. I have been to many Christmas markets in Germany but I keep going back to Essen. It's fabulous

Swiss ski resort (village up a snowy mountain) just magical

Rome over New Year was fantastic too

@Lj8893 me too. I am definitely collating all these places for a wonderful list.
Trying to decide which place looks most appealing right now.

Freiburg in the Black Forest

The Rockefeller Centre in New York, horse and carriage through Central Park and 5th Avenue.
I am ex cabin crew and I have never been anywhere more magical.

My parents' house when I was a child. Nothing has ever replicated the specialness of Christmas since then.

Luosto in Finnish Lapland.

Vienna, with all the major buildings swathed in scarlet ribbon, and wreaths and swags of fresh greenery everywhere, absolutely beautiful. The lovely glittering cathedral.
The christmasy cocktails were fab too!

Grassington is lovely, the market, the shops, the villagers dressing up in Victoriana, Santa & his reindeer at the pub, the brass band & Christmas Carols at dusk. It's a fab start to Christmas.

I love Funchal at Christmas. It has the most beautiful lights, music, a huge nativity scene, choirs of children... and it’s warm!

Searching for Father Christmas in a snowy forest in Lapland. I don't think I'll ever top that.

@Ginfordinner aww I love that and am most envious. My request for the list is actually because I came from a broken home. Alcoholic father and crap mum so I love love Christmas now I can finally celebrate it without fear of the Christmas tree being ripped down in some alcohol fuelled rage, don't speak to them anymore and dh has no family so just us and dc.

Lots of time to make up for it though and make up for it I shall. And also managed to somehow land myself a good job to pay for my own family's escapades. 🎄

Thank you @shinychandelier
Christmas has never been the same since my parents died, especially now that DD is at university. TBH I don't really care for Christmas and new year now as our family are so depleted.

I hope you manage to inject the same magic into Christmas for your family that my mum did.

Love the sound of Funchal at Christmas. We had a lovely holiday in Madeira in May.

Luosto Finnish Lapland . Magical beyond words .

Megeve in France
Copenhagen
And...Ashington, Northumberland - back in the late 80s

Florida..they go apeshit over it there..especially in celebration
