    Winning tip: Bolzano, Italy

    The buildings are as gothic and spiky as anything across the Austrian border in this 25% German-speaking town, the largest in South Tirol. It's known as the Christmas Capital of Italy: it's snowy in winter, and the Germanic influence means there are Christmas markets and gingerbread everywhere. And there are other wintry things on offer if the markets and mulled wine aren't enough, including several cable cars running into the hills, taking you up to walks in the Renon hills (also known as the Ritten) and views of the Dolomites and the world-famous Ötzi the Iceman, sealed (密封) in ice in about 3,300BC, discovered in 1991 and on show in the South Tyrol Museum of Archaeology.

     There's nothing quite like celebrating Christmas in a country that once banned it. New Year is Russia's biggest holiday, but you don't have to wait until 31 December to go ice skating in Red Square. The famous skating spot is open from November 30 until March 9—and return flights from Gatwick to Moscow with EasyJet cost little more than £100 at present. After your festive skate, warm up with a hot chocolate and a walk around GUM: once a state department store, now home to popular stores and cafes.
