Copenhagen, Denmark: Højbro Plads Christmas Market


Højbro Plads Christmas market
Adorned with a Christmas tree, and sparkling lights. There is reindeer and Santa’s sleigh photo-opportunity.  Thankful to the opportunity to visit my first ever European Christmas Market in Europe - Højbro Plads Christmas market.


(But those Europe-inspired markets in Japan made it special because of the concert, music and I'm accompanies by my sister)


There are stores with novelty items, winter accessories, chocolates and cheese.


I visited for the first two nights and thought that they are still preparing the place, thus, I would say this is the most quiet market I've been.  No music at all in the area nor in the stores.



First food to try roasted chestnuts - just the same as we eat from home.


On my list, I have tried - Æbleskiver - Small round pancakes, a cherished Danish Christmas tradition, served with jam and powdered sugar.





They have hearty sausages.  I ordered for the curry wurst, because we had it back then (2019) in Berlin.


Also on my must-list - Gløgg - Warm up with a cup of Danish Christmas classic spiced wine, made with red wine, spices, and almonds.


Next time, will also try mulled wine.

Travel Date: November 2025
