Valkenburg Caves and Aachen Christmas Markets

Enjoy a day of Christmas shopping in the Valkenburg Caves, and an evening at the traditional Aachen Christmas Market.

#
Note: This event has already passed.

It must be Christmas time, because once again, the Valkenburg Caves have turned into “Santa’s Home”. Visit stall after stall of Christmas vendors in this unique underground atmosphere, while sampling Dutch specialty foods like mini-pancakes, satay skewers, pea soup, and of course, a steaming glass of mulled wine.

But your day isn't done yet!

Next visit the "Christmas City" in Aachen, awarded “Third Best Christmas Market in Europe - 2015” by www.europeanbestdestinations.com. This paradise for the senses will enchant both young and old, and the carousel is as much a must for the children as Glühwein is for the adults.
