Christmas Markets are a tradition and we wander through them starting in early December for the pleasure of getting into the Christmas spirit. You can find everything, especially craftwork. Some markets have original gift ideas by creators. In any case, they are a tradition and these Christmas Markets give Paris magic, lively colours and a warm ambiance.

 

In the heart of the Latin Quarter, in the 6^th arrondissement of Paris, Father Christmas’s village sets up at Place Saint Sulpice just behind Hotel Madison. The market spreads out its surprises around the Quatre Evêques Fountain, built in 1844. Some of France’s regions are mixed in here and there with treasures from the rest of the world.

The Maison de l’Alsace is a must before the holidays, with mulled wine, Christmas tea and gingerbread. This renowned Christmas Market offers taste treats and decorations to give gifts from Alsace (39 Avenue des Champs-Elysées, Paris 8^th).

The Maison du Limousin organises its own Christmas Market and invites you to discover its selected products: honeys and chocolates, gourmet preserves, jams, foie gras, Le Creusois cakes, fruit jellies, liqueurs and aperitifs, straw wine, chestnuts and condiments, etc. The Christmas Market also presents a selection of objects in Limoges porcelain, enamels and fine books (30 rue de Caumartin, Paris 9^th).
