Plan your time and location wisely: Most markets are open from 10/11 am to 9 pm, and some markets are closed on Christmas and New Year's Day, so check and plan ahead. 2. Each market has its own unique culture and style, so why not visit a few different places to experience different festive atmospheres? 3. Dress warmly: Especially in northern and mountainous cities, it can get quite cold at night 🥶, so we recommend wearing warm clothes 🧣. - Do you have any other Christmas activities in Spain to recommend?
