Les marchés de Noël
TRADUCTION (Translation) :
Christmas markets
Before the holidays, Christmas markets are set up in many towns and villages in France. These are markets where you can find chalets selling items, souvenirs, food, and drinks.
Christmas markets have a very festive and family-friendly atmosphere. The markets are decorated with garlands, Christmas trees, and sometimes even fake snow in places where it doesn’t snow!
It’s also common to find tables and chairs where you can sit down to eat or enjoy hot drinks. If you’re in France during the holiday season, don’t hesitate to check them out!
