罗马尼亚的锡比乌圣诞市场

随着季寒潮来临,锡比乌市变成了一个令人眼缭乱的假日仙境,这里有罗马尼亚最受欢迎的圣诞市场之一。锡比乌圣诞市场从11月底到1月初在中央广场举行。在今天的图片中,一串串闪闪发的灯悬挂在广场上,形成了一个雨棚,使鹅卵石街道沐浴在温暖的节日光芒中。那里还有一棵灯火辉煌的圣诞,周围是迷人的木屋,售卖各种各样的东西,不仅有手工制作的装饰品,还有当地制作的点心,比如罗马尼亚传统甜面包,芳香的热葡萄酒,还有撒上盐的热脆饼。

锡比乌本身就是一个历史悠久的地方,以其保存完好的中世纪建筑、色彩缤纷的外墙和充满活力的文化景观而闻名。它曾是德国移民在12世纪建立的最富有城市,2007年被指定为欧洲文化之都。在圣诞节期间,锡比乌的光芒更加明亮,旋转木马,溜场和各种表演使这座城市充满活力。

Sibiu Christmas market, Romania

As the winter chill sets in, the city of Sibiu transforms into a dazzling holiday wonderland as it hosts one of Romania's most popular Christmas markets. The Sibiu Christmas Market, known in Romanian as Târgul de Crăciun din Sibiu, is held in the central square from the end of November until early January. Sparkling strings of lights drape across the square, seen in today's image, creating a canopy that bathes the cobblestone streets in a warm, festive glow. There also stands a beautifully lit Christmas tree, surrounded by charming wooden huts selling everything from handcrafted ornaments to locally made treats like cozonac, a traditional Romanian sweet bread; vin fiert, an aromatic mulled wine; and covrigi, a type of pretzel served warm and sprinkled with salt.

Sibiu itself is a place steeped in history, known for its well-preserved medieval architecture, colorful facades, and vibrant cultural scene. Once the wealthiest city founded by German settlers in the 12th century, it was designated the European Capital of Culture for 2007. During the Christmas season, Sibiu shines even brighter, with carousels, ice skating rinks, and performances that bring the city to life.

圣斯蒂芬大教堂的降临节 Advent at the basilica

圣诞市场,圣斯蒂芬大教堂,布达佩斯,匈牙利

在圣诞节来临之际,圣斯蒂芬大教堂成为了布达佩斯标志性的圣诞集市的中心。在洋溢着节日气氛的集市上,匈牙利手工艺品、节日装饰和当地美食应有尽有,充分体现了传统圣诞节的精髓。作为在圣诞节前几周举行的活动,降临节盛宴也是匈牙利节日传统的一部分,届时会邀请游客们品尝烟囱蛋糕、白菜卷和炖牛肉汤等菜肴,而空气中也会弥漫着热红酒和烤栗子的香味。对许多人来说,大教堂外墙投射的3D灯光秀是一大亮点,现代感十足的灯秀让这座历史悠久的建筑栩栩如生。

这座新古典主义风格的大教堂是为了纪念匈牙利第一位君主斯蒂芬一世(又称圣斯蒂芬国王)。经过数十年的建设,该教堂于1906年竣工,教堂顶部是一个高耸的圆顶。游客可以参观教堂,欣赏错综复杂的彩色玻璃,或瞻仰据说是国王本人木乃伊化的右手遗骸。穹顶上有一个观景台,游客可以在此俯瞰城市的全景,如今天的图片所示。

Christmas market, St. Stephen's Basilica, Budapest, Hungary

As the holiday season kicks off, St. Stephen's Basilica becomes the dazzling centerpiece of one of Budapest's iconic Christmas markets. The fair buzzes with holiday spirit, offering a mix of Hungarian craft, festive décor, and local delicacies, capturing the essence of a traditional Christmas. The Advent Feast—an event held in the weeks leading up to Christmas and part of Hungary's holiday traditions—invites guests to savor dishes like chimney cakes, stuffed cabbage, and goulash soup, while the scent of mulled wine and roasted chestnuts fills the air. A highlight for many is the 3D light show projected onto the basilica's facade, a modern touch that brings this historic structure to life.

This neoclassical basilica honors Stephen I, also known as King Saint Stephen, who was Hungary's first monarch. Completed in 1906 after decades of construction, it is topped by a towering dome. Visitors can explore its chapels, admire the intricate stained glass, or view a relic that is believed to be the mummified right hand of the king himself. For those seeking a panoramic view, the dome has an observation deck where visitors can enjoy sweeping views of the city's skyline, as shown in today's image.

多么可爱的枝啊! How lovely are your branches

平安夜

在这个平安夜,世界各地的城镇都沉浸在一种神奇的魔力中。商店关着门,街道空无一人,人们与朋友及家人欢聚一堂,互相慰藉。把礼物装进圣诞袜、举办派对或是播放节日音乐,每个人都有自己的平安夜传统活动。今天的照片上展示的是爱沙尼亚塔尔图市政厅广场一年一度的庆祝活动,广场上灯火辉煌,圣诞树点缀其间。塔尔图的圣诞集市洋溢着欢乐的气氛,有橇、户外火炉和木质动物旋转木马。此外,集市上还有熏肉、热饮和酥脆的姜饼。无论你是选择观看一部经典的节日电影,还是选择在十二点钟声敲响时惬意地喝上一杯热可可,在这个宁静的夜晚都能感受到浓浓的圣诞气氛。

Christmas Eve

There's a certain magic in knowing that, around the world, shops are closing, streets are emptying, and friends and families are gathering to celebrate Christmas Eve. We each have our own traditions, from filling stockings to hosting parties and playing festive music. Today's twilight homepage shows the gleaming lights and Christmas trees of Town Hall Square in Tartu, Estonia's second-largest city. Tartu's Christmas fair has a merry atmosphere, featuring sleigh rides, fire kettles, and wooden animal carousels, while serving up smoked meats, hot drinks, and gingerbread. Whether you're partying or cozying up with a cup of hot cocoa, embrace the Christmas spirit on this peaceful night—and don't forget the milk and cookies!

卢布尔雅那,斯洛文尼亚共和国

多么可爱的城市啊!斯洛文尼亚首都卢布尔雅那和流经该市的卢布尔雅尼察的名字的前缀都是“ljub”,这个前缀在斯拉夫语中的意思是“爱”。卢布尔雅那位于连接亚得里亚海北部和多瑙河地区的贸易路线之上,是一个相对较小的首都,人口不到30万。城市南部是卢布尔雅那沼泽,这是该国最大的沼泽,面积达63平方英里。卢布尔雅那的外围地区现代建筑林立,而城市的核心区则保留了具有古罗马中世纪元素的历史建筑。例如卢布尔雅那城堡、三重、龙桥和历史悠久的老城区。当你在城中闲逛时,一定要留心,因为你很可能会遇到这座城市的象征——卢布尔雅那龙。

意大利北部的瓦尔加迪纳山谷是现实版的“童话世界”,该山谷位于南蒂罗尔多洛米蒂山区,以滑雪、攀岩和木雕闻名。圣诞节期间,这里会变成“圣诞谷”,木屋向游客们敞开大门,怀旧缆车在圣诞谷上空穿梭,闪烁的童话灯点缀着木屋。18世纪,瓦尔加迪纳山谷因生产雕像和精雕细刻的木俑而闻名,这些雕像最初用于装饰天主教堂,木娃娃是其中最著名的产品之一,至今仍在生产。

Val Gardena, South Tyrol, Dolomites, Italy

Val Gardena in Northern Italy is a popular destination for skiing, rock climbing, and woodcarving enthusiasts, which transforms into Christmas Valley at this time of year. Wooden huts open their doors to visitors, and a nostalgic cable car ride, each cabin adorned with twinkling fairy lights, travels above snow-covered slopes. During the 18th century, the valley became famous for its production of intricately carved wooden figurines, initially made to decorate Catholic churches. Among those creations, the peg wooden doll emerged as one of Val Gardena's best-known products and is still being produced today.

12月初,波兰华沙的大街小巷和广场都披上了节日的盛装。整座城市被圣诞装饰点缀得熠熠生辉,每到夜晚,闪闪发的彩灯就会让这座城市变得生机勃勃。这场灯光秀点亮了整条皇家大道,从城堡广场的皇家城堡一直延伸到波兰首都华沙老城的尽头,最后汇聚到城堡广场上近30英尺高的圣诞树上。穿着厚外套的游客们在圣诞集市里闲逛,一边浏览着应季纪念品,一边品尝着热饮。自1980年起,皇家城堡和周围的老城区已被联合国教科文组织认定为世界遗产

Castle Square, Old Town, Warsaw, Poland

From early December, the streets and squares of Warsaw, Poland's capital city, are dressed for the festive season. Christmas decorations light up the Royal Route, which extends south from the Royal Castle on Castle Square, where a nearly 30-foot-tall Christmas tree is installed for the holiday season, to Wilanów Palace. Bundled patrons wander through Warsaw's Christmas Market, browsing through seasonal souvenirs while savoring a warm beverage. The Royal Castle and surrounding Old Town have been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1980.

之城的光之季 Season of light in the City of Light

巴黎老佛爷百货公司

巴黎的老佛爷百货无疑是任何一个城市中最宏伟的商店之一。它不仅是一个购物的地方,也是光之城最受欢迎的目的地。在百货公司日渐衰落,整个零售业也在发生变化的时候,Galerie依然坚守着。它在金融危机、战争和现在的互联网中幸存了下来,仍然是巴黎生活中值得庆祝的一部分。像纽约的梅西百货或洛克菲勒中心一样,老佛爷百货是假日的代名词。每逢假日,商店的招牌彩色玻璃圆顶下都会装饰一棵巨大的杉树,这是巴黎人世代以来一直信奉的圣诞庆祝仪式。

Galeries Lafayette, Paris

Surely one of the grandest stores found in any city is the Galeries Lafayette in Paris. It's not just a place to shop but a destination as popular as any in the City of Light. At a time when department stores are fading and the entire retail industry is shifting, the Galerie holds fast. It has survived financial crises, wars, and now the internet, remaining a celebrated part of life in Paris. Like Macy's or Rockefeller Center in New York, the Galeries Lafayette is synonymous with the holidays. A giant fir is decorated every holiday season under the store's signature stained glass dome—a ritual of Christmas cheer that Parisians have embraced for generations.

圣诞节的倒影 Reflecting on Christmas

维也纳Belvedere的圣诞集市

圣诞集市赢得了节日的三重大奖:你可以买到有趣的、通常是手工制作的礼物,它们位于欧洲风景如画、浪漫的城镇和村庄,它们用热葡萄酒和当地美食吸引你。有什么不喜欢的?圣诞集市,或称为“维纳赫斯多夫”,是欧洲最古老的降临节之一。

我们的照片显示了奥地利的Belevedere圣诞市场,位于多瑙河对岸,上贝尔维代尔(Upper Belvedere)郊外,是该酒店的两座宫殿之一。如果你去逛圣诞集市,点时间逛一逛,看看这个季节的所有景色和气味。在维也纳,这座建筑令人印象深刻的城市在节日期间全力以赴,灯光、装饰和音乐一应俱全,而丽城宫则是一个颇具戏剧性的背景。

Christmas market at Belvedere in Vienna

Christmas markets win the holiday trifecta: You can buy interesting, often hand-crafted gifts, they are set in picturesque, romantic towns and villages in Europe, and they tempt you with mulled wine and local delicacies. What's not to like? Christmas markets, or 'Weihnachtsdorf,' are one of Europe's oldest Advent events.

Our photo shows Austria's Belevedere Christmas market from across the Danube River, outside Upper Belvedere, one of two palaces on the property. If you visit a Christmas market, make the time to stroll, taking in all the sights and smells of the season. In Vienna, the architecturally impressive city goes all out for the holidays, with lights, decorations, and music, and the Belvedere Palace is a suitably dramatic backdrop.
