Christmas Market

Weihnachten means Christmas in German and last week all around Germany, in all the Altstadts or old town centres, Christmas Markets opened and will stay open until the end of December. They are kind of like fun fairs, but they also have stalls where you can buy cool and kitsch presents, lots of food with yummy confectionary including white fairy floss, as well as hot crepes and sausages. But best of all they serve hot alcoholic drinks. Holding the drink warms your freezing hands, and the rum or sweetened wine warms you in 3.5 seconds from within.
