48 Hours at the Strasbourg Christmas Market: The Capital of Christmas

We took the train from Paris to Strasbourg to check out one of Europe’s oldest Christmas markets, walked through the different themed squares, and tried classic Alsatian dishes plus street food like spätzle, sausages, crêpes, and mulled wine. I’ll show you what to eat, what the markets actually feel like at night with all the lights on, rough costs for trains and hotels during peak season, and how we paired Strasbourg with a quick Christmas stop in Paris and an overnight at the Moxy CDG before flying Finnair business class to our next destination.
