Tourists looking for real coziness and a fairy-tale atmosphere during the Christmas holidays are advised to pay attention to the French region of Alsace. It is here that the wonderful town of Colmar is hidden, which will give the best impressions of the celebrations.

According to the Express, Colmar is famous for its colorful doll-like houses and charming Christmas market. Vacationing here will bring a lot of positive emotions and leave a lot of beautiful photos.

One of the must-see parts of the city is the area called "Little Venice." This is undoubtedly the most romantic and hospitable part of Colmar, which got its name due to its historical layout around the canals of the Loš River.

Narrow waterways frame picturesque wooden and brick houses. The colored facades and their reflection in the water create images worthy of a beautiful postcard.

During the Christmas season, mulled wine and festive delicacies, such as gingerbread, are offered everywhere. Families walk with their children and the streets have a cheerful atmosphere.

There are six markets in Kolmar, each of which turns into a festive fair on Christmas Day. Visitors can buy any gift here, from handmade candles and lollipops to jewelry.

The combination of medieval architecture and a festive mood gives Colmar a timeless, almost fairytale-like appearance. The town is said to have inspired Disney's Beauty and the Beast, and there's even a fountain that looks remarkably similar to the one in the movie.

For those looking for a truly magical Christmas experience, Colmar offers everything you could want: breathtaking beauty, rich history, great food, and an atmosphere filled with holiday magic. Whether you're strolling along the canals, sipping mulled wine at the Christmas market, or just admiring the twinkling lights reflecting on the snowy streets, Kolmar is the perfect place to enjoy the joy and wonder of the holiday season.
