FEEL THE MAGIC OF CHRISTMAS – SEE WROCŁAW LIGHT ILLUMINATIONS!

The whole Wrocław is shining bright for Christmas! These merry lights with the old and colourful tenements in the background, beautiful Christmas trees and the boulevards by the Oder River, literally bathing in the brilliance of colours! Yes, Wrocław has already dressed for the occasion! All the streets and squares are the best proof of the fact! Have you ever seen illuminations more breathtaking than ours? 

Why should you visit Wrocław between Christmas and New Year’s Eve? Oh, is there any other time within the year with the streets so merry, with the buildings so bright, the decorations so colourful and all so festive? Of course, there’s none. Indulge in this joyful atmosphere! Even the most tough-hearted sceptics will now become angels on earth. And a festive family walk around the Old Town will be – both for the oldest and youngest alike – quite a fairytale event, indeed. This year, the motto of our illuminations are the folk motives taken from the Polish ethnic arts. You can count the light decorations if you’re brave enough! There are as many as 300 ones altogether!  

Up until Friday, the 22nd of December, you can still visit the Christmas Fair organised in the Old Market Square, full of merry stalls, with the Fairytale Forest for children and aromatic mulled wine for adults… The colourful tenements, beautifully decorated Christmas tree will call the shots for a while, and the whole Wrocław will finally slow down to enjoy its nostalgic soul once again… And all we want for Christmas is… snow!
