Lille - France

Lille Christmas Market Open every day from 11:00 - 20:00 19th November - 30th December
Closed 25th December

With approximately 80 wooden chalets in the winter wonderland. All the usual european christmas market goodies plus some unusual items as well

Place du General de Gaulle host the large ferris wheel. Costing 4 Euros per adult. We had some 6 trips around. So if you think it's just a couple of circuits and that is the end of the ride. Think again.

The views across the top of the city are great and I would recommend a giving it a go.
