Cleves - Historical gardens

The Christmas market in Cleves is set in the town's splendid historical gardens, where spa guests used to stroll until well into the previous century. Exotic trees bathed in a kaleidoscope of festive lights conjure up a magical atmosphere for the artists, craftsmen and confectioners at nearly 50 seasonally decorated stalls. Musical ensembles provide yuletide melodies in the rose garden pavilion - the perfect soundtrack to a thoroughly enchanting scene.
