The Christmas market of arts and crafts is taking place from 23 December in Grand Hotel Sofia’s spaces which are open to the public and in the city garden next to the hotel.
Everything the market has to offer is unique and valuable because it was made by talented Bulgarian artists and master craftsmen – a wide variety of jewellery, accessories, Christmas decorations, leatherwear, paintings, lamps, souvenirs, hand-knitted clothes, as well as all kinds of cosmetics combined with essential oils.
The Christmas spirit is coming to town with the smell of mulled wine, cinnamon, chocolate and delicious farm products coming from hands of the farmers themselves. The guests to the market will be welcomed by Father Christmas himself. He will hear out the wishes of the youngest visitors who can take pictures with him at the entrance to the city garden.
