Tallinn Christmas Market, Estonia

It may not be the longest running Christmas Market in Europe but Estonia's capital city Tallinn, has some very festive history. The beautiful Town Hall Square is said to be the site of the world's first Christmas tree circa 1441. This combined with a stunning backdrop of well preserved historic buildings (the Old Town is a UNESCO World Heritage Site) and its medieval atmosphere, makes it a top choice to soak up some old Estonian Christmas charm. This year there will be 64 wooden stalls selling curiosities such as felt hats, sea-grass animals and beautiful hand-sewn quilts plus tasty fresh grilled meats, cakes and the sweet but potent local liqueur, Vana Tallinn.

Note: average Christmas rate is the average online rate offered on iceplc.com during November and December 2009, average rate September 2010 is the average online rate from 01-15 September 2010.
