Trento Italy Weather

Especially in the northern Trento-Alto Adige region and larger cities, colorful street markets fill the month of December and the first week of January through Epiphany (Italy’s traditional time for gifts). Street sellers set up booths and kiosks covered in glittering lights and filled with ornaments, decorations, crèche sets, gifts, sweets cakes and seasonal foods.

Rome: Piazza Navona becomes the city’s Christmas Central, a huge open market filled with craftsmen selling hand-carved nativity figures, handmade lace, embroidered linens, knit hats and sweaters, lacy baby clothes, pottery figures and other handcrafts. The air is smoky from the chestnut vendors, selling fresh-roasted nuts in little cones made from newspaper. Cakes, cookies, fruit breads and bars of almond-filled nougat are stacked high. In the center of the piazza is a life-sized presepio – nativity scene.

Naples: An entire market in Naples is devoted to these presepi. Via San Gregorio Armeno is filled with craftsmen displaying their year’s work, nativity figures and entire scenes. Along with the holy family carved in loving detail are the animals, angels, wise men, even tiny details to add realism to scenes people set up in their homes.
