Enjoy Christmas at Winterland Hasselt

#EuropeanChristmas Every year during the winter near Christmas and New Year, Hasselt holds Winterland Hasselt at Kolonel Dusartplein on the east side of the city. It looks like a Christmas Market, but the atmosphere here is more modern. There are some chalets selling everyday items that you can use during the winter, such as winter clothes, socks, bags, and hats. However, most of the chalets sell food. It feels like you are walking around and trying Western street food. The highlight is the many rides. Children will definitely love it. 🌭 Food There is a large area with comfortable seating, but the menu focuses on drinks and there is not much food available. The food section is spread out across the chalets, with hot dogs, sausages, kebabs, spiral potatoes, churros, waffles, dried fruits, chocolate-covered fruits, stroopwafel, poffertjes, pasta, and of course, the Jenever booth, which is the city's famous gin. 🎡 Rides There is an ice skating rink, a Ferris wheel, a carousel, Santa's train, a reindeer sleigh that swings up and down like it's flying, and a haunted house with a scary version of Santa Claus. In terms of decorations, there are arches, Christmas trees, and dazzling lights. It is considered the largest Christmas event in the northeastern region of Belgium. ✅ Service fee: You can walk around for free, but if you want to play the rides, you have to buy tickets for each ride. Or if you want to join activities such as having brunch with Santa, you have to book a ticket. #TravelBelgium #TravelEurope
