Fira de Santa Lúcia, BarcelonaPhoto: DepositphotosThis Christmas market is located in the Catalan capital’s Barrio Gótico in a square besides the Santa Eulalia Cathedral. Spread over 2,500 metres this Belén retells the Christmas Story and there’s a market that sells typical Christmas pastries, decorations and crafts. Or rather those lucky enough to browse the stalls of local producers at the Christmas markets in Bilbao. Artisan products showcase the best Basque gastronomy including locally made cheeses, and preserved meats as well as the usual Christmas decorations and handicrafts.
