Tourists are finding places of the real Christmas which still exists within the UK.
(EMAILWIRE.COM, December 12, 2011 ) Maryport, UK -- Tourists don’t have to go far to enjoy a fantastic festive Christmas, and in fact there are many places in the UK which will provide them with a wonderful atmosphere, great shopping and unique events. Here are four suggestions for some of the best places to spend a family Christmas breaks in the UK this year.
1. York
York is a wonderful city to visit any time of the year, but over the festive period the atmosphere is even more incredible. Christmas in York is perhaps the most 'festive' of all christmas breaks in England. There are lots of Christmas markets from November onwards, Ice Sculptures in The Quarter, York’s Christmas Fayre from December 2nd to 18th, plenty of entertainment, music, festive food and boutique shops, and it all creates a fantastic atmosphere.
One of the highlights has to be the Service of Nine Lessons and Carols in York Minster which will be held at 16.00 on Christmas Eve. Or if you feel like staying up late then Midnight Mass will be held at 23.30.
2. London
There are plenty of things which make London the ideal city to stay in over the festive period, and the excellent shopping is only one of them.
Attending a service at Westminster Cathedral or St Paul’s is sure to be one of the highlights, although a person will have to be quick to get themselves a seat. A tourist may also want to go on a cruise down the Thames either on Christmas Day itself or during the Christmas week to see some of the capital’s most famous buildings at their best.
Or if people are feeling really brave then why not join in with the annual Serpentine swim on Christmas Day in Hyde Park? There's no many options for Christmas in London.
3. Canterbury
In Canterbury over the Christmas period people will find a traditional Christmas market held in Whitefriars Square, right in the centre of the city. Here tourists will be able to enjoy plenty of festive treats and warm themselves up with German mulled wine (Glühwein).
Many people choose to spend Christmas in Canterbury in order to attend a service in the magnificent Canterbury Cathedral. This year there are two carol services on the 23rd and 24th, with the first one open to all, and the second one by ticket only, application for which opens on October 17th. People may also want to attend the cathedral on Christmas Day to see the Archbishop preach. Given it's history and heritage, Canterbury is often described as one of the UK's most romantic Christmas breaks.
4. Edinburgh
Edinburgh has plenty of things going on at Christmas, and an extended stay here is a great idea. Tourists could head here as early as November 24th for ‘Light Night’ when the official celebrations begin, and the Christmas Markets go on right up until January 4th.
There is an ice rink, plenty of Christmas shopping and Santa arrives on December 3rd so visitors can also pay him a visit.
