Christmas may be gone, but long nights, gloomy mornings, and sub-zero temperatures are here to stay. It&#8217;s not all doom and gloom though, sometimes winter can be pretty&#8230; well, <em>pretty<\/em>\u00a0&#8212; especially when you see your city transformed by a generous sprinkling of the crystallized cold white stuff.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>At Tiqets, we&#8217;re looking on the bright(er) side of inclement weather and trawling Instagram for the snowiest shots of our top venues. Check out our favorites below!<\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Eiffel Tower<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BPp3KaYAE0G\/?taken-by=thelostvisuals<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ll always have Paris, but we&#8217;ll only have snow in the City of Lights very occasionally. Climbing the city&#8217;s famous tower in the middle of a blizzard is certainly a magical experience, and you can enjoy totally unique views of the French capital from the top.\u00a0 You never know \u2013 you might even see a Parisian smile!<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"box__heading\">Park G\u00fcell<\/h2>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BQ2NupRAknM\/?taken-by=barcelona_barcelona<\/p>\n<p>Barcelona is admittedly more famous for its scorching heat than its wintertime chill. But once in a blue moon, the Catalonian gods sprinkle the capital with pure-white snow, and Gaud\u00ed&#8217;s architecture somehow looks even more surreal. A snowy stroll through his <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiqets.com\/en\/barcelona-c66342\/park-gell-p973888\">technicolor dream-park<\/a> is something to be savored, and if you get there early enough, you&#8217;ll have the whole place to yourself \u2013 first tracks.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Rijksmuseum<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BclSQSbhvm4\/?taken-by=velvetescape<\/p>\n<p>Amsterdam&#8217;s UNESCO-protected canals look stunning all year round, even when you&#8217;re getting soaked by the notoriously Dutch Drizzle.\u00a0 But the snow takes things to the next level, pushing\u00a0Amsterdam into legitimate fairytale-wonderland territory. The legendary <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiqets.com\/en\/amsterdam-c75061\/rijksmuseum-skip-the-line-p703796\">Rijksmuseum<\/a>\u00a0still attracts eye-watering queues\u00a0even when it&#8217;s snowed under \u2013 but with Tiqets you can skip the line and get toasty in no time!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>London Zoo<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BckdMMIByyt\/?taken-by=zsllondonzoo<\/p>\n<p>Business as usual for the penguins, but for the rest of the residents of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiqets.com\/en\/london-c67458\/london-zoo-p974412\">Britain&#8217;s biggest zoo<\/a>, it&#8217;s a definite change of scenery. You can admire the\u00a0zookeepers&#8217; conservation efforts and learn all about\u00a0their specialist breeding progra&#8230; OH HOLY SHIT, IT&#8217;S A MONKEY HOLDING A SNOWBALL!!!<\/p>\n<h2><strong>The Guggenheim<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BB0tEIENW34\/?taken-by=ladyfoxlove<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.tiqets.com\/en\/new-york-c260932\/the-guggenheim-skip-the-line-p975049\">New York&#8217;s most famous gallery<\/a> already looks like an inverted igloo (sort of), but those\u00a0 Frank Lloyd Wright-designed curves look extra special after a heavy snowfall. Brave the bitter NY winter and you can get cultural without the crowds before climbing to the roof to take in your very own <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=j9jbdgZidu8\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Fairytale of New York<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2><strong>SFMOMA<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/BcRCMHhlce3\/?tagged=sfmoman<\/p>\n<p>Ok, so it officially hasn&#8217;t snowed in San Francisco since 1976. But that hasn&#8217;t stopped the city&#8217;s Museum of Modern Art from getting in on the frosty fun. Their latest exhibit, affectionately dubbed the &#8216;SFMoMan&#8217; (see what they did there?) is essentially a snowman standing in a freezer. No wait, that&#8217;s <em>exactly<\/em> what it is \u2013 but now you can enjoy a taste of winter while feeling extra-smug about that balmy Californian\u00a0climate.
