The tradition of the Weihnachtsmarkt is Wunderbar! I have spent much of my free time this month wandering the market here in Goettingen and exploring the markets of nearby towns, taking in the smells, the sights, and the tastes.
The market here in Goettingen is a popular evening hangout, and I am always impressed at the size of the crowds despite the fact that it might be a weekday or absolutely freezing outside. I'm getting really good at bundling up from head to toe, and it only takes a few sips of Gluehwein to warm right on up.

Sweets abound! Fresh Roasted Almonds at the Hannover Weihnachtsmarkt. They were delicious!

Window shopping is also irresistible, the sweets are enough to make one drool at their sight.
