    Seasonal city breaks: 4 of the best pre-Christmas European getaways to start your festival spirit.

    Zagreb, Croatia

    The Croatian capital takes the Christmas seriously, with street decorations, outdoor concerts and a traditional Christmas market. Most of the action is centred on Ban Josip Jelacic Square, which has a history of more than 3 centuries, and European Square. The two squares have market stalls(货摊) and live music performances given by popular musicians.
