As the festive season is rapidly approaching, travel gurus have shared how you could make this Christmas the most enchanting yet by visiting some dreamy Christmas markets on a budget. It can be challenging to add that special touch to the holiday season without splashing out, but some spots in central Europe might be more affordable for Brits than similar destinations within the UK.
With a 2-hour journey from just £63 one-way, Brits could find themselves soaking up the atmosphere at the popular Brussels Christmas market, which runs from the 29th of November to the 5th of January. This Winter Wonders market attracts thousands of tourists annually and is cheaper to reach from St Pancras than Edinburgh.
Next up is Paris, France, with arrivals at the Paris Gare Du Nord station in under 2 and a half hours for £78. A trip to Amsterdam Central in the Netherlands comes at the same price, although the journey is slightly longer at 4 and a half hours, reports Surrey Live.
