A Christmas market is built up in the heart of town at Les Halles, replete with 30 wooden chalets selling mulled wine and trinkets, a 65-foot illuminated Christmas tree, and even Santa Claus's home. On the other side of the river, across from Notre Dame, is an intimate market with about 30 vendors selling regional food, hot chocolate, and handcrafted goods in the Square Viviani. To make traveling around the city easier and economical, you can buy hop-on-hop-off tickets. As the name suggests, these tickets allow you to board and deboard buses in the designated route as many times as you like.

Paris is decked out in her Christmas splendor starting mid-November. Glittering lights are strung across the trees, and colorful decorations are hung across the streets.

The Sainte-Chapelle is one of France's most visited sites, located just minutes from Notre Dame Cathedral. However, only a small percentage of the million tourists who walk through the intricately decorated doors of the chapel each year get the opportunity to attend an exclusive classical concert on the other side. Euromusic Productions gives you a series of concerts and recitals honoring classical music greats, bringing together the best sets and soloists in Paris. The list includes works by JS Bach, Mozart, Vivaldi, and Handel. You can also get Sainte-Chapelle tickets.
