Description

Every winter, the heart of Brussels tranforms into a "Winter Wonderland", featuring a magical Christmas market, illuminated Big Wheel, street activities and a skating rink. The Europe's most original Christmas market features approximately 240 wooden chalets around the Bourse (Stock Exchange), Place Sainte Catherine and the Marché aux Poissons (fish market), bursting with Christmas ornaments, handicraft items and other seasonal gastronomic trests. Another popular attraction, the 200 foot-long skating rink lies at the end of the walk-route, in Marché aux Poissons square. Choirs, processions, troupes of wandering artists, bands and concerts complete the holiday ambiance.
