...Verne spaceships. In Rome, the market in the baroque Piazza Navona is worth a visit for its first-rate buskers alone. In Naples, the entire Via San Gregorio Armeno is given over to cr?che scenes and figurines. The largest of Vienna's markets takes place in front of the Rathaus, or City Hall. At the Skansen open-air museum in Stockholm, look out for the procession of white-clad girls bearing candles in honor of St. Lucy (her feast is Dec. 13, the year's shortest day before the calendar change).
