DE - BAVARIA: Christmas Market at Munich


The Yuletide spirit comes to life in the Bavarian capital when Munich’s Lord Mayor formally opens the Christmas Market at on the Friday before the first Advent. Thousands gather into the Marienplatz, the heart and soul of the city, to watch the almost 30-metre-high Christmas tree sparkle for the first time in all its regal splendour as it is lit up by 2,500 candles. The aroma of Gluehwein (hot spiced wine) and the glistening of angel hair remind everyone of the magic of Christmas.
