X-mas at Liseberg

With nearly 5.000.000 Christmas lights at the yearly Christmas market at the amusement park Liseberg, you can’t expect anything less than a brilliant visit! The park is closed during winter time but opens in December to hold a design and crafts market in the spirit of Christmas. Here you will find a variety of of goods from well-known designers and local artists and craftsmen. You can also taste and purchase Swedish traditional Christmas foods. Of course the rides are also open so you can enjoy the park the usual way if you wish.

Tonight on December 23rd, when the sun had set (around 4PM) we went to the park together with mormor and morfar that will be in Gothenburg over Christmas. It was perfect weather, around 8 degrees so not too cold and no rain. Since it is the evening before "julafton", Christmas eve which is the day we celebrate here in Sweden, the park wasn't overcrowded and we could really enjoy the market and what the park had to offer. Noah was of course not too interested in the stalls, he mainly wanted to drink his hot chocolate that we had brought in a thermos for him and then hit the rides. So we strolled the park, bought some goodies and Noah went for the rides while we drank glögg to stay warm. All in all, a very cosy and great start to the Christmas holidays!
