I love the Christmas markets in Vienna ,have been so many times over the years ,this one held in Schonbrunn Palace is one of my favourites .
The setting is amazing ,the palace building is stunning ,the Christmas market is not massive but beautifully laid out ,lots of stalls all beautifully decked out for the Christmas season ,a fantastic looking Christmas tree and very popular ,my twin brother Stephen and I are currently in Vienna and we visited this Christmas market the day it opened on the 19th of November ,crowds were big ,we enjoyed glasses of gluhwein here served in a beautiful glass ,gluhwein was €4.50c and glass was €4 ,you receive your money back on glass when you hand it back ,I never do ,I always keep the gluhwein glass at each Christmas market I visit ,a nice reminder of the market ,we wandered around the Christmas market ,atmosphere was really good ,very festive ,it even started to snow which was superb ,added to the festive vibe .
We really enjoyed our visit to this Christmas market before we moved on and as on previous visits to here we had a great time .
Kultur Und Weihnachtsmarkt schloss Schonbrunn is easy to locate in the grounds of Schonbrunn Palace and is a must go destination if you're in Vienna over the Christmas period.
