2Bruges, Belgium – A Snow-Globe City

Bruges turns into a real-life snow globe during the holidays. The Markt Square comes alive with glimmering lights, an ice rink, and stalls serving Belgian waffles, hot chocolate, and mulled wine. 

The canals shimmer beneath reflections of festive lights, and the medieval bell tower rings out over the cobbled streets. Horse-drawn carriages, cozy cafés, and lace-filled shops make Bruges a Christmas dream come true for romantics.
