Zurich, Switzerland 

All of Switzerland is magical in my opinion, but Zurich is extra magical for Christmas. The entire city is bathed in a display of 12,000 crystal lights, and there are a plethora of Christmas markets, concerts, and amazing holiday-themed events to see. Be sure to check out the Christmas market at Werdmühleplatz, which includes the famous vertical podium in the shape of an enormous Christmas tree, complete with choirs singing Christmas carols.

What makes it extra special is the transformation into a true winter village, when the area from Notre-Dame-des-Victoires Church in Place Royale to the end of Rue du Petit-Champlain is decked out in cozy holiday dĂ©cor.
