10 wonderful French Christmas traditions

Some French Christmas traditions closely resemble those of the UK but others may be surprisingly different. France, lest we forget, is a country that refuses to be held captive to commercialism. It’s for that reason that Christmas in France is genuinely more about giving thanks for the year that has passed and wishing great things for the year to come.

Why winter in France is magical

The winter season is one of the best times to visit France for lots of reasons. True, the beach may not be on the menu aside from an appetite enducing stroll,  but plenty of areas still have superb golden sunshine at this time of the year, there are all sorts of festivals going on, Christmas fairs of course and it is much cheaper to travel there. So, wrap up warm and come on a journey through winter in France, starting here.
