Last Christmas we went to several of Europe's finest christmas markets. This December we found ourselves in the former Ottoman Empire, where we experienced markets with less Santa and more silk, less gingerbread and more ginger tea, less glühwein and more industrial strength glue.
The Old Town Bazaar of Mostar, Bosnia & Herzegovina.
Coppersmith's Street in Sarajevo, Bosnia & Herzegovina.
Fireworks in Pristina, Kosovo
Strange fruit hanging in Skopje, Macedonia.
The antique market in Athens spilled over into the street.
And of course, before the end of the year we made it to the mother of them all, Istanbul's Grand Bazaar.
It truly was a christmas miracle
Happy holidays!!!
