Christmas walking tour

Step into Uppsala dressed in winter light. You begin in the cathedral where candle flames flicker against stone arches. At the castle courtyard the cold wind carries whispers of kings and queens. Paths in Carolina Park crunch with frost as you walk under bare branches. In the Botanical Garden snow softens every sound and frozen blooms sparkle with ice. Finally, you stroll along the pedestrian street where Christmas shop windows glow and saffron buns scent the air. This private walk weaves festive lights, history, and winter stillness into a memory that warms the season.
