The Antwerp Christmas market is the perfect destination for a romantic evening. The glittering lights amid historic architecture, lovingly decorated wooden stalls selling all sorts of traditional goodies, nativity scenes and a wide range of delicious food and drinks are what you will find when visiting Grote Markt. You can sip mulled wine under the Christmas tree or try one of Antwerp's famous jenevers (Dutch gin) while warming up next to a cosy open fire.
