About the scent of mulled wine and gingerbread
The Christmas markets of South Tyrol are magical but the Christmas bells market in nearby Sterzing is truly unique among them.
An atmospheric backdrop of illuminated old town houses, local craftsmen selling artful products, traditional delicacies waiting to be tasted and the local ice skating rink invitinviting to draw brisk curves to familiar Christmas melodies.
