People all over the world have ways to make Christmas fun. It is a time for winter pleasures and traditions and for spending quality time1 with friends and family. Traditions can change, and some celebrations vary from place to place. But one thing is for sure—Christmas is a great time for a festival! One of the best places to enjoy the fun of winter festivals is in Belgium, specifically its capital, Brussels. This is where the famous Winter Wonder festival takes place every year.
For moms and dads, a lot of shopping can be done at the Winter Wonder festival. It has one of Europe's biggest and best Christmas markets. Made up of 240 wooden cottages2, the Christmas market sells
a variety of cuisines and
seasonal gifts.
Winter Wonder has an
essential element of cold-weather fun—an ice-skating rink3. It also has merry-go-rounds4 and a huge Ferris wheel5 covered in lights, which
are always
a big hit with children. Those are not the only
dazzling lights you will find at the festival, though. Colored lights that
glow through the pavement6 and special lampposts7 guide you through
lively street activities. Another part that can't be missed is the magical light display at the Grand-Place, a huge public square with historic buildings. The city of Brussels really
comes alive with the magic of the Winter Wonder festival.
