December
As winter returns barcelonins gear up for Christmas, and the city is festooned
with colourful decorations. Relatively few visitors arrive, at least until Christ-
mas, when the city fills with holidaying out-of-towners.
Fira de Santa Llúcia
Held from early December to Christmas, this holiday market has hundreds of stalls selling
all manner of Christmas decorations and gifts - including the infamous Catalan Nativity
scene character, the
caganer
(the crapper).
