Constitution Square in the capital has been transformed into a fairy-tale place where the magic of Christmas comes to life.

On Friday evening the festive lights were turned on and the Christmas Fair organized by the Capital City Hall opened.

For almost a month, you'll find attractions and activities for the whole family, a fair of crafts, creativity and local culinary products, carols and concerts.

The Christmas Fair in Constitution Square will be open daily during the week from 12:00 noon and on weekends from 10:00 until December 26, and admission is free.

Even if the rainy weather was not to everyone's liking, many people from Bucharest, but especially tourists, decided to spend the evening at the Christmas Fair in Constitution Square.

The stalls with traditional food and mulled wine, as well as those with decorative art, had no shortage of customers.

In addition to the Christmas Fair in Constitution Square, the fair at the Laminor Arena opened its doors this evening. In addition, the festive lighting was also switched on, putting the city in a festive mood throughout December.
