Croatia’s often-underrated capital is transformed into a winter wonderland at this time of year, hosting more than 25 individual Christmas markets (held from 26 November until 7 January) throughout the city’s main squares and promenades, each with its own theme. Browse for artisan gifts and handicrafts in traditional huts, sustained in your shopping pursuits by hearty regional cuisine and warming glasses of aromatic mulled wine, whilst daily entertainment and cultural events create an even more enchanting festive experience.
