Family Christmas holidays in Europe, here are the top five destinations

Christmas holiday destinations are truly countless, but a few stand out on a very long list of things to do with your family during the holiday season, and there's at least one very good reason for that. Choose the one that best suits your family and set off on a journey that will be much more than strolls through decorated streets and a plane ride.

Copenhagen, Denmark

A beautiful capital of northern Europe, you will go to Copenhagen mainly for its wonderful history, while there are not a few who visit it just for the food. The capital of Denmark has developed in recent years into the best European culinary destination, a city with many star-rated restaurants, where during the holidays they "dress" their best and shine with hundreds of colorful lights, serving the menu their most festive always based on tradition, fresh techniques and the best ingredients of the season.

However, if you travel to Copenhagen with children, you will find a real paradise for both young visitors and adults. Tivoli Park is one of the city's most famous attractions and a reason why many visitors come to the Danish capital during the holidays or in the summer. It is one of the oldest theme parks in the world, an extremely special and unique place mainly thanks to the graphic way it represents the universe of the Far East of the 19th century.

Disneyland, Paris

Every year, at the end of November, thousands of Parisians gather on the Champs-Élysées, the most famous boulevard in all of France, to witness the moment when the lights of the Christmas decorations will be switched on and the whole city with the beauty and magic of the holidays. Paris is undoubtedly one of the most popular Christmas destinations in the world (along with London and New York) and perhaps the festive season is – despite the bitter cold – the best time to visit the City of Light.

Rovaniemi, Finland

In the northernmost part of frozen but dreamy Finland, there is a place far away, where the sun's rays have a different duration and the sky shines an unreal magic. In the capital of Lapland, in white Rovaniemi, you will decide to travel to find yourself in the authentic village of Santa Claus and live a completely traditional Christmas experience. However, fans of world history will come in contact with the martyred past of this small Finnish town, which was completely destroyed during the Second World War.

London, Great Britain

It is known that in the UK Christmas celebrations are a really big deal and anyone who has lived there for even a while knows that from the end of October the shops are decorated with red balls and flashing lanterns.

In a big and truly inexhaustible city like London, no matter how many times you find yourself during the festive season, there will always be something new to do. Your walk will certainly start from the famous museums of the city, which are numerous and most of them will leave young visitors speechless.

Τollwood Winter Festival, Germany

Christmas markets in Germany are probably the best in the world. Simply, nowhere else do they know how to celebrate more heartily, drink more cold beer, bake more delicious sausages, but also some more delicious and sweet food.

In Munich, however, you'll have the chance to live a festive experience unlike any other. At Tollwood's famous, festive, bright and beyond Christmas festival, young and old will get "lost" in a festive festive universe of endless music, theatrical performances, good food, endless games, where children will find their paradise. Painting, building, pottery workshops, storytelling, puppetry and many other activities take place throughout the day keeping the youngest visitors creatively busy, ensuring that parents also have time for their own fun and relaxation.
