At that time expensive hotels with exquisite service become available to the budget tourist. Of course, the sea is cold this time of year, but walking in the fresh air and swimming in the indoor pool of a luxury all-inclusive hotel can more than make up for this disadvantage.

Surprise, but in December you can go on vacation to Turkey in order to ... go downhill skiing! It starts in mid-December ski season in one of the youngest resorts - Palandoken (near Eruzum). Height - 3000 meters above sea level, "red", "blue" and "green" slopes, modern lifts. There are good snowboard trails. The only inconvenience is the frequent fine snow.

Many tourists strive to get to Prague on these days, because on the eve of Christmas and New Years, the famous Czech sales take place. Discounts for branded items reach 50-75%.
