Christmas tree magic in St. Donat: A festival for the whole family!

The Christmas season begins with a magical experience in Carinthia! The Christmas tree plantation of Renate and Veit Prettner in St. Donat opens their gates from December 7th. By December 24th, families can not only choose their perfect Christmas tree and even fell themselves, but also enjoy a lively Christmas market. Visitors can expect a wide range of regional delicacies, from mulled wine to chestnuts to the artisanal products of local craftsmen. Veit Prettner pays special attention to the quality of the trees that are cut after special moon phases to ensure a long shelf life of the needles, such as meinzirk.at reported.

Festive atmosphere in Riga

While the anticipation for Christmas in Carinthia unfolds in Carinthia, the Latvian capital Riga turns into a winter wonderland. From the end of November, the Doma Square will be illuminated with festively decorated stands, where craftsmanship and traditional food are in the foreground. The Riga Christmas market is known for its charming atmosphere and captivates visitors with the sweet fragrance of gingerbread and warm mulled wine. The gift ideas range from handmade goods to local specialties such as smoked meat. A visit to Riga promises a unique experience that warms the hearts of visitors, even in frosty temperatures, such as kikijourney.com
