Sleigh
bells, the fresh smell of pine boughs on doorways,
crystal chandeliers shining through lace curtains, cups of hot coffee,
and warm mulled cider or wine - these are the winter holidays in central
Europe.
Your journey begins as you arrive in Berlin; a city
rich in history. You travel south to Dresden and stay in a beautifully
restored Baroque palace. At the renowned spa center of Karlovy Vary (Karlsbad)
in the Czech Republic, you can relax in herbal baths and saunas after
shopping for fine Moser crystal and Pirkenhammer porcelain.
During your stay in Prague, you visit the lovely
historical landmarks in this "city of a thousand spires";
stroll across the Charles Bridge and down the cobblestone streets of Old
Town. You stop in the incredibly lovely town of Cesky Krumlov in
southern Bohemia on your way to Austria and the charming city of
Salzburg, where you spend Christmas Eve. And the concert you attend in
Vienna on Christmas night marks the beginning of your stay in this
wonderful romantic city.
