Small decorative figures and glowing lanterns stand around it, while snow softly covers the cobblestones and the edges of the square.

Nearby is a small, cozy stall selling hot chocolate, coffee, and sweet pastries. Warm steam and the sweet aroma of cocoa constantly waft from its window. Several high tables and wooden benches are set up in front of the stall, so teenagers often stop here to warm up and chat.

Schoolchildren and other teenagers are strolling around the square: some are taking photos near the Christmas tree, some are laughing with friends, and some are simply passing by with a glass of hot drink in hand. Festive music plays softly from nearby speakers.

Decorated shop windows, small kiosks, and cafes line the square. The warm light from the windows reflects off the snow, mingling with the bluish evening light. Despite the cold, the place feels lively, cozy, and festive.
