Imagine walking directly into a magical, fairy tale Christmas. This is the greeting that you can expect when visiting Tallinn. Boasting medieval, Gothic, and Baroque architecture, the city is full of history. The entire Old Town is a site on UNESCO's World Heritage list. Experience Tallinn's Christmas Market alongside its Winter Wonderland, full of small cafes, shops, and museums. Enjoy a ride through the Old Town's winding, cobbled streets from the festive, choo-choo-ing city train, only 5 minutes from Park Inn by Radisson Central Tallinn Hotel. 

Directly across from Park Inn by Radisson Meriton Conference & Spa Hotel atop the Toompea Hill, you'll see the magnificent St. Alexander Nevsky Cathedral, a cathedral holding Tallinn's most powerful bell ensemble. Then, can you think of a better way to get into the holiday spirit than with the classic Christmas ballet "The Nutcracker?" A 10-minutes walk from Radisson Blu Hotel Olümpia and Radisson Blu Sky Hotel will lead you to the National Opera House. And while in the area, stop by the art and design exhibition "Gingerbread Mania," made entirely with gingerbread. After all, it is the season to be merry.

Next stop: Latvia

It is easy to get into the seasonal spirit in Riga. Not every Christmas boasts a white, snowy blanket, so how can it be that Radisson Blu Daugava Hotel always seems to have snow on their terrace?

A Riga landmark is the Radisson Blu Latvija Conference & Spa Hotel, a prominent 90m tall landmark, withy a spectacular view over the city.

Let the melodies flow and sparkle with a New Year Gala concert and on your way, be sure to stop by the statue of Bremen Town Musicians. Rubbing the nose of the animals', brings you luck, the story goes.

Christmas miracles are coming to Lithuania, bringing with them a festive mood. Share these feelings with those closest to you and make your way to Vilnius, Kaunas, and Klaipėda. In Vilnius, the Radisson Blu Royal Astorija Hotel is only a 15 minute walk from the Cathedral square, where you can experience the gigantic Christmas tree. 

Not only the Old Town will shine this year. The entire city will have festive walks all around a beautifully decorated Vilnius. Choose between Radisson Blu Lietuva Hotel and Park Inn by Radisson Vilnius Airport Hotel & Business Center, both within near distance of the city center, to admire the light decorations. 

Every year, the main Christmas tree in Kaunas offers surprises with unusual and non-traditional decorative ideas. Go from Park Inn by Radisson Kaunas to the Christmas Village in the Old Town square to experience this year's artistically-themed Christmas. Klaipeda is Lithuania's oldest city, and Christmas time brings magic with it into the city.
