Last winter I visited Vajana and it was one of the most beautiful trips I ever had. The city looked like a winter postcard full of lights, snow and Christmas decoration. I went to the famous Christmas markets when I tried hot spice wine. About small handmade gifts, the market in front of the Skombun place was my favorite. I also visited the palace itself. The rooms were amazing. The snowy garden was peaceful and quiet. In the afternoon I warmed up in a traditional Vajana cafe. I went to the cafe central where I had a coffee and a pious of fursha lords. The place was full of history and charm. On New Year’s Eve the city was full of music and people celebrating. At midnight fireworks lit up the sky. The people danced at the walls in the street and magical moments. Before I left I took a horse-tron carriage right through the old town. The snow was falling and the city looked like a fairy tale. Vajana in winter is truly special. I hope returned one day.

Last winter, I visited Vajana, and it was one of the most beautiful trips I ever had. The city looked like a winter postcard, full of lights, snow, and Christmas decorations. I went to the famous Christmas markets, where I tried hot spiced wine. Among the small handmade gifts, the market in front of the Skombun place was my favorite. I also visited the palace itself. The rooms were amazing, and the snowy garden was peaceful and quiet. In the afternoon, I warmed up in a traditional Vajana café. I went to the Café Central, where I had a coffee and a piece of fursha lords. The place was full of history and charm. On New Year's Eve, the city was full of music and people celebrating. At midnight, fireworks lit up the sky. People danced along the walls in the street, creating magical moments. Before I left, I took a horse-drawn carriage ride through the old town. The snow was falling, and the city looked like a fairy tale. Vajana in winter is truly special. I hope to return one day.
