The Best Places to Spend Christmas

Christmas is the most long-celebrated, most long-awaited and most tradition-oriented holiday in the Western world. Weeks ahead of time, shopping malls, stores and even some families put up their decorations to count down the weeks to the big day. From celebrating Advent on the 1^st December by lighting the Advent candle, to opening each new door of the Advent calendar as a child, to Christmas Carols and yummy cake, every year is full to the brim with festive cheer. There is no better way to celebrate Christmas 2015 than to book a holiday and enjoy travelling with your loved ones. The question is, where should you go? WAYN has compiled a list of the most Christmassy destinations that have the best celebrations and events. Read on to find out!

Trømso, Norway

Visit the Nordic city of Trømso, where you will find the best views of the Aurora Borealis, or the famous Northern Lights – breath-taking, mystical views teamed with snow and a fabulous Christmas dinner- you cannot get more traditional than this!

Manhattan, United States

It is widely known that America hosts some of the biggest and most elaborate holiday celebrations – so head to Manhattan in New York City. Feel the spirt of the festive season everywhere you go; from horse-drawn carriage rides in Central Park to the lighting of the tree at Rockefeller Centre and the bright displays all over the city.

Quebec City, Canada

Experience a quintessentially Québécois Christmas, with the historic Quebec old town and its cobbled streets, lined with sparkling lights and cosy, traditional festive cheer. With a good serving of snow to sled in and delectable food available from restaurants on every street corner, you can rest assured that Christmas in Quebec is going to be wonderful.

Lapland, Finland

Have a fairytale Christmas holiday in Lapland, the place where Father Christmas has his workshop. Besides the beautiful Northern Lights, there is a wealth of things to do in Lapland. Visit Urho Kekkonen National Park and ride a sled pulled by reindeer (yes, you heard that right!) or even stay in an igloo!

Edinburgh, Scotland

With its rich topography, consisting of sweeping hills, mountains and deep valleys, a little dusting of snow really sets the scene for Christmas in Scotland. In the capital city of Edinburgh, you can expect warm fireplaces at Balmoral, beautiful bagpipe renditions of 'Amazing Grace' at the Sir Walter Scott Monument, as well as a firework show that spreads from Edinburgh Castle to the Palace of Holyroodhouse.

Old San Juan, Puerto Rico
