Markets are essential in the period of Christmas preparation. On our next trip we will take you to a very special market which will also show you how were days in the Middle Ages. You will also have the chance to visit the village where they grow chirstmas trees and sell them on their special market.

The medieval market is organized in Vic, one of the most beautiful cities in Catalonia that preserved the atmosphere of the Middle Ages. This medieval market happens here annually in the beginning of December and this is one of the largest and best known medieval markets in Spain.

Before you would ask, why this market is so special, here you have the answer: during the medieval market, the narrow cobbled streets of Vic are filled with stalls in which craftspeople and masters of old trades dressed in medieval costumes offer and present traditional crafts, gifts, food and drinks. You can buy Catalan sweets and delicacies, Christmas gifts, natural cosmetics, jewelry, handmade souvenirs and other products.

Apart from the fair, this event offers you even more: troubadours, jugglers, displays of falconry, archery, puppetry, theatre, and belly dancing as well.

On this trip we will also visit Espinelves. This village is popular for its rural surroundings, its Romanesque church and most importnantly its specialty in Christmas trees. Espinelves is situated inside the biggest forest of Catalunya, in the area of Montseny-Guilleries – fresh woods, clean water and pure air everywhere. During our visit the annual Christmas tree market will be happening here.
