Treat yourself to a cosy candlelit dinner here of Irish oysters followed by roast chicken, honey-glazed ham, cranberry sauce and all the trimmings, before finishing with a warming nightcap from one of Ireland\u2019s largest whiskey collections \u2013 the perfect prelude to a walk home in the crisp winter air.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Stay at:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/offer\/dylan-hotel-dublin-ireland\/0062y000004RvmAAAS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Dylan Hotel<\/a>, Dublin<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Midnight Mass in Vatican City, Italy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those looking to embrace the deeper meaning of a Christian Christmas will find what they\u2019re looking for in the ancient Vatican City, home of the Roman Catholic Church. The Midnight Mass at St. Peter\u2019s Basilica, held annually on Christmas Eve, delivers a true sense of occasion to this special time of year. Be greeted by the glittering tree soaring into the night sky and nativity scene in St. Peter\u2019s Square before taking up your place to hear the Pope\u2019s sermon (tickets are required for entry to the mass, or it can be watched on the big screens in the square).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div  class=\"lux_UI lux_single_dealcard cacheid_1b554e8cd702589b14a83704d074c59f\">\n\t\n\t<div

Rome, dripping in gilt and dressed in frescoes of Renaissance greats such as Michelangelo. Lit by the soft glow of candlelight and harbouring a silence and stillness that is scarce in today\u2019s frenetic world, these sacred spaces provide a place for reflection at an ever-poignant time of year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ice Skating in Paris, France<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/hotels\/country\/france\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/inspiration\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/Paris-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"A snowy Eiffel Tower, one of the best reasons to visit Europe at Christmas - Luxury Escapes \" class=\"wp-image-7537\"\/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Paris in winter, France. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The City of Lights is a star in itself, but it never shines brighter than during the festive season, when fairy lights sparkle in the canals and the cold air invites lovers to snuggle ever closer as they traverse the city\u2019s streets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Embrace the romance of the season by ice skating at a festive rink, which in previous years have found their home at the foot of the glittering Eiffel Tower, at the Christmas market in the Jardin de Tuileries and on the sky-high rooftop of Tour Montparnasse. A particularly enchanting spot to get your skates on by night is the year-round Le Grand Palais des Glaces \u2013 one of the largest rinks in the world, sat beneath a soaring glass dome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Stay at:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/luxuryescapes.com\/offer\/les-jardins-du-marais-paris-france-europe\/006RF00000WY79WYAT?adults=2&amp;children=none&amp;searchId=c1b70ef3-d88c-4388-904b-6f683be097f8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Les Jardins du Marais<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Skiing in the Alps, Switzerland<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Nothing gets you in the festive mood quite like a little convivial apr\u00e8s-ski after a day on the slopes. Where better to indulge than the alpine wonderland that is Switzerland? Its landscapes look like they\u2019ve come straight from a Christmas card, with glittering mountaintops, wooden chalets, medieval buildings and mirror-like lakes, all sprinkled in a dusting of snow.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div  class=\"lux_UI lux_single_dealcard cacheid_1285775e33f0a9387d606e9c03929d15\">\n\t\n\t<div class=\"dealcard_preview\">\n\t\t<div class=\"splide lux_dealcard_gallery\"
