Lockdown or not, even in Advent 2021 you can stroll through the city and admire the wonderful lighting. The streets and shop windows of Graz are festively decorated and such window shopping makes you want more and hope for better times. Walking is good for your health, good for your mood, it costs nothing and some Christmas decorations you will see for the first time this year.<\/p>\n

Here we tell you about a special route that glitters and sparkles…<\/p>\n

\n \n Start: Hauptplatz <\/span>\n Our local heroes OchoReSotto, visual artists from Graz, will once again make our town hall shine colourfully and in waves. Ingenious!<\/span>\n <\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>[vc_empty_space height=”25px”]

\n \n Herrengasse <\/span>\n The path continues into Herrengasse, which for years was decorated by the ``upside down Christmas trees`` and this year shines in a new light. Modern, spectacular, certainly worth seeing, but also partly kitschy and too much? On the way, two displays catch the eye: The teddy bears in the Schullin shop window, which are especially popular with children, and the legendary Haller window. We've been waiting for this all year...<\/span>\n <\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>[vc_empty_space height=”25px”]

\n \n Snack on the way <\/span>\n If you go on such long lockdown walks and gather so many new impressions, you should also have a snack along the way. Chestnuts, pretzels or macarons to go at Meszaros are right along the way. The display case full of colourful sweets also looks festive!<\/span>\n <\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>[vc_empty_space height=”25px”]

\n \n Schmiedgasse <\/span>\n Passing the enchanting Tausendsch\u00f6n, one sees them after all, the `` upsidedown Christmas trees ``. Some love them, others don`t understand them. You are supposed to feel here as if you are flying over a Christmas forest. We love the idea and this discreet and festive decoration that fits very well here in Schmiedgasse.<\/span>\n <\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>[vc_empty_space height=”25px”]\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/2″]

\n \n Sackstra\u00dfe <\/span>\n After crossing the main square, you reach the noblest street of the past and present, Sackstra\u00dfe. Note the breathtaking display of Kastner und \u00d6hler and, just opposite, the charming, detailed, hearty, retro display of Konditorei K\u00f6nig.<\/span>\n <\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>[vc_empty_space height=”25px”]

\n \n Mariahilferplatz <\/span>\n Either you decide to take a longer tour over the Schlo\u00dfberg to admire the lights of Graz from above or you move to the last stop over the Erich Edegger Steg to the Mariahilferplatz. Circus Wonderlend, the somewhat different Christkindl market on the `` other side `` of the Mur, has opened it\u00b4s doors again. Visuals on the church fa\u00e7ade, colourful party lights, a small dance floor and a lot of style and fun make this place our favourite. When there's gl\u00fchmakava and Baumkuchen again, it's even more beautiful.<\/span>\n <\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div>[vc_empty_space height=”25px”]\t\t<\/div>\n\t<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1579885612960{padding-top: 22px !important;}” anchor=”buchung”][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_text_aligment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1535115499587{padding-top: 27px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”640″ img_size=”600×400″][vc_column_text]”main square”[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”641″ img_size=”600×400″][vc_column_text]”Circus Wonderlend”[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row content_text_aligment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1535115499587{padding-top: 27px !important;}”][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”642″ img_size=”600×400″][vc_column_text]”Schmiedgasse”[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=”1\/2″][vc_single_image image=”643″ img_size=”600×400″][vc_column_text]”Caf\u00e9 K\u00f6nig”[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1579885612960{padding-top: 22px !important;}” anchor=”buchung”][vc_column][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
