Just as like last year Christmas Markets are closed this year as well , due to Covid. A few years ago, as I visited my hometown Munich in Germany, I captured some images from “The Christkindl Market”
Handcrafts from different regions are being sold in festive decked booths
Since it is very cold, Mulled Wine, called Gluehwein is the perfect drink to warm up and gets some people very jolly.
Along with hot sugar coated roasted almonds, called ” Gebrannte Mandeln” or even peanuts.
And of course stars in all different shapes
And the ” Christkindl” Jesus baby, wrapped beautifully, which many people lay down under their Christmas tree
The ambiance of the Christmas Market is always filled with much joy, people getting together to feel the Christmas spirit.
Cheers to the hope that Christmas Markets will be alive again next year.
Enjoy what you see and feel.

Love the festive display and decorations. So well captured Cornelia!
Thank you dear Radhika, it makes me happy that you enjoyed all of it. Best wishes to you.
Wonderful Christmas Market and lovely ornaments too. Here in Antwerp the market is canceled because of corona for the second year in row.
Thank you for enjoying these images, I guess it’s all over Europe again, lets hope for next year to be able to enjoy all those festivities again.
It’s the second time this happens… Looking forward to walk around without all these rules and restrictions… Oh well, guess we’ll have to be patient a little bit longer.
Oh I know, Herman, let’s hope for the next year to enjoy all those festivities again.
Beautiful. The Christmas markets in Germany and Austria are definitely worth a visit, at least once. The mood is so festive.
Thank you Arv, indeed it is, as well listening to all the Christmas music being played all over the places, which I couldn’t capture.

Looking back at the pre-Covid time through your photos must bring back beautiful memories for you, Cornelia. Thank you for sharing your impressions of the Munich Christmas market.
Thank you dear Peter, indeed it did, especially that this was last time I had visited my family in Germany.
Well captured pictures, Cornelia. Awesome post.
Thank you my dear friend, I’m glad you enjoyed them.
Welcome always Cornelia ♥️
Dear Cornelia,
indeed, that’s so typically German. The English here try something similar but they have to practise some more years. They are good with singing all together and here father Christmas arrives in a boat and everyone drinks lot of mulled wine and eats lots of mince pies.
Thank for your pictures that make us remember ‘good old Germany’.
Wishing you a wonderful holiday season

Thank you Klausbernd for your reflections on the English tradition at your place. It sounds very interesting to me that father Christmas arrives in a boat and people eating mince pies, must be very delicious. Ja, hah, ” Good old Germany” . Wishing you all a wonderful holiday season.

In my working time I have been a few times to the Christmas Market in Stuttgart. More recently, until the covid arrived I have been in the Bruneck Christmas Market, smaller but with a good atmosphere. Yes, cold, light, music and gluehwine are making the experience.
Cancelled now, perhaps one day in future…
How wonderful , Robert that you were able to visit some of the beautiful Christmas markets, I bet that the one in Bruneck must have been very special, having the Alps in the background.
The best visual Christmas festivity. It’s like looking to a dream Christmas and the Holidays, only it’s real. Hope to see this wonderful place one day. Thank you for sharing this. It’s forever Christmas preserved perfectly through beautiful pictures and words. Love them all. Happy 2022☀️
