Christmas programs have started. But for those who are still unable to decide, the question may still be occupied in their minds: What are the best places to celebrate Christmas?

Which countries can be visited during the Christmas? Did everyone suffocate from the heat, freezing! Or go to the northernmost and relax under the famous Aurora lights, listening to the sounds of the firewood in the fireplace burning hot wine in your hands!

As you know, at Christmas time, most places are already reserved and crowded. In particular, if you have booked early, you are likely to go to many places around 30% more suitable numbers.

But during this period, especially European cities would be another beautiful. Squares, shops, restaurants are decorated, the weather becomes completely different. 

1- Sea – Sand – Sun Routes to celebrate Christmas

We think you spent every year at the end of a cold December. But this period, which is known to us as cold, is celebrated in a hot summer period in many Southern Hemisphere and Ecuador countries. They see neither snow nor cold. Thailand is one of teh best seaside routes to celebrate Christmas in 2020.

If you have such a goal, countries such as Thailand, Indonesia, the Philippines, Malaysia or India should be on your list of Christmas destinations. In all of these countries, you can celebrate the last days of December with ice-cold drinks on your hands, t-shirts on it, bare feet on white sand, under 30 degrees heat.

Bali is one of the best places to celebrate Christmas.

There is much more to Bali than shopping, dining and nightlife. Bali offers many activities to explore outside of what you see with your eyes.
You can spend a day at the island’s famous water park, explore hilly areas or travel through the forests by all-terrain vehicles.

Surfing in Bali is famous. The island, which is worth seeing underwater as well as above water, also has magnificent coral islands. Parachute surfing, an adventure sport, is very popular, especially on the east coast of Bali.

Rafting is another popular sport in Bali. Besides the challenging trails in the western part of Ayung, a beautiful panoramic area awaits you. The animals you will encounter on the Rafting route make this activity even more fun.

Another activity that even those without diving experience enjoy is sea walking. Visitors who go under the sea wearing a specially designed helmet attached to an oxygen tank can experience fascinating views of undersea life. Sea walks are held in two separate regions, Sanur and Tanjung Benoa.

2- Best places to celebrate Christmas: Skiing Routes in Europe

I don’t know how to ski. I am awful. All I know is that after the snow, especially if the weather is a daily sun visor, on a cold winter day, with my wine in my hand, with my coat on, either walking in the forest or watching the skiers. If you’re good at this and you’re looking for a cheap place and an alternative place for Christmas, I’m going to count it now in European countries, and if you can find a place, I can suggest you go. Especially if you are wondering where I can ski cheaply in Europe, you should definitely consider the cheapest skiing cities I will count. Christmas destinations; Slovenia, Macedonia, Bulgaria.

 

Slovenia
Slovenia

Ljubljana is the capital of the country and also known as the ‘city of love’. The symbol of the city is ‘dragons.. You did not hear wrong. They’re very obsessed with the dragon. The city has a bridge with dragon statues, statues of people and animals suffering, and an ice hockey team called Ljubljana Dragons.

If I speak briefly of the mythological story of the dragon: the Greek hero Jason steals the famous golden hide from the king of the Black Sea. He accidentally sails to the Danube instead of the Aegean Sea with a ship called Argo along with the Argonauts. At the end of the road they reach the Ljubljanica River – the river that passes through the city of Ljubljana.

They decide to stay there for a while. What they don’t know is that a dragon lived in the nearby swamp. They meet the dragon and Jason kills the dragon after a major struggle and becomes the first resident of Ljubljana.

The center of the city, Prešeren Square, was named after France’s most famous poet, France Preseren, and the statue of the poet with an muse was placed in the center of the square. If you look in the direction of the statue, you will see the house of Julija Primic, where France Prešeren spent her whole life in unrequited love. Of course, Ljubljana’s love city does not come from these unrequited loves.

 

 

Macedonia
Macedonia

Macedonia is another stop on our best places to celebrate Christmas list.

Every country has different Christmas traditions and customs. There are different rituals about the feast, starting with the decoration of the house and the table, and the variety of food and entertainment. How is the Christmas greeted in Bulgaria, old traditions and customs preserved? Vihra Baeva, an ethnologist professor of the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, explains these questions:

For our citizens, the Christmas is a very important date on the calendar. For our contemporary people, it is only a Christmas. For our grandfathers, but it was a longer process. And it starts from Ignajden. This is the day of Saint Ignatiy Bogonosets.

On this date the transition from the old year to the Christmas begins. According to the beliefs, then the birth pains of the Virgin Mary begins. The second feast is the birth of Jesus. The third feast is the Christmas. We are known as Vasilövden.

Because on this day Saint Vasiliy is remembered. It is also called va Surva  because the survivors visit the houses on this day. This tradition is still preserved today from the old zamnas ’.

Celebrate Christmas in France:

Walking around the Eiffel Tower by experiencing romance in the architectural streets of Paris (France) with his beloved at Christmas.

I would like to share my suggestions and some details about what can be done in Paris when you are greeting the Christmas for those who have made a holiday program in Paris for the Christmas or those who are thinking of doing it.

In fact, all the motifs, such as Christmas pine and Santa Claus, which we use as a Christmas figure in Paris and throughout the western countries, are used here to celebrate Christmas. This may cause cultural confusion for us. Since Christmas is more important than Christmas for the French and almost all Western countries, gifts, celebrity family meals and crazy decorations are always made for Christmas.

As such, when I share a picture of Paris embellished on social media, I have to write things about Christmas’s decorations in Paris , but what we see is actually  Christmas decorations in Paris . Because actually Santa Claus is not a Christmas figure, Christmas pine is actually Christmas pine. Well, let’s not just celebrate something, make life beautiful, let’s find an excuse and enjoy it…(Paris is my favourite one in best places to celebrate Christmas 2020 list.

Experiencing the atmosphere of that historic city of Berlin (Germany).

Christmas is approaching. Berlin may be a good option wherever we think we go. We’re the ones who spend Christmas and Christmas in Berlin and say “good thing we did yap.

We prefer to go during Christmas and Christmas week which is the most glorious time in order to enjoy the city even more during the winter holidays. Christmas Market / Christmas’s fairs and Christmas’s celebrations, street shows, brightly decorated streets make the cities we go to even more beautiful and fun.

The energy that the city gives to people is incredible. In that icy weather, it is possible to see people sitting outside in their blanket house on their knees under normal conditions every hour. This is the enthusiasm in Germany’s capital, Berlin, we went to taste the roads.

We’ve reserved a full week for a tour of Berlin. Since there are many places to visit, we thought it would be more appropriate to spend a long time in a single city. Usually we spend 3-4 days at most in a city, but special and big cities like Paris and Berlin deserve a week. Edik We didn’t rent a car and wanted to enjoy the city. It was also very nice.

Best places to visit in Berlin to celebrate Christmas:

– Alexanderplatz
– Red City Hall
– Television Building (Fernsehtrum)
– Eastside Gallery
– Checkpoint Charlie
– Gendarmenmarket
– PostdamerPlatz
– Brandenburg Tor
– BerlinerDom
– PergamonMuseum
– Kaiser Wilhelm Gedachtniskirche
– Kurfürstendam Street and KADEWE shopping center
– Berlin Zoo (Zoo)

 

 

Vienna

Especially in Vienna (Austria) Have you ever dreamed of seeing the markets.

It is an excellent choice for Austrian Christmas holidays. Like all seasons, Christmas time is fascinating in this beautiful country. Streets, chandeliers everywhere, lights and ornaments dazzle. Not only the capital Vienna but all the cities are elegant ır We visited both Vienna and Graz during a period of Christmas decorations and Christmas markets. Graz was a small but beautiful city, and the Christmas markets and decorations were also quite beautiful, but as you can see in the photos, Vienna was completely different, and with its incredible decorations and sparkles, it entered our list of cities celebrating Christmas with the most impressive.
Here are the most important places to see in Vienna and Christmas time in Vienna I think…

 

 

Finland

The famous Aurora (Aurora borealis) lights in Lapland (Finland).

In Finnish Lapland you can go on safari with deer sleighs or icebreaker ships, and watch the northern lights from your bed during the night in glass huts.

The snow dream is waiting for you. Trees that look like weaves made of white lace uzanan Meadows covered with snow and ice that stretch out in front of you and shining like a crystal field in the sun… People who have forgotten the color of the soil insanlar in his colorful clothes, his eternal respect for nature… Santa’s tunes Baba Huskies created to live in the cold and run non-stop….

The frozen sea stretching as if it were a paralyzed ship… A pumpkin soup in minus 37 degrees wooden bowls… Here in Lapland these are you, even more than that, a dream from the snow ız You will never forget, you will remember for a lifetime a holiday that will overshadow all your travels zor It’s hard to decide to go: it’s both a costly journey and the idea of cold is pretty scary, but once you set foot in Lapland, believe it, you’ll say “good thing I had come.

Disappearing in the colorful narrow streets of Stockholm (Sweden).

In today’s Swedish secular society, Christmas has become more of a modern entertainment and consumption holiday than a celebration of Christianity for the majority of the public, resting and drinking with family and close relatives, visiting friends and friends, giving gifts and giving gifts and shopping.

At Christmas, the number of people visiting church services, with the exception of some elderly and religious, is decreasing day by day.
