Have a white Christmas at a German street market

“My Christmas day was spent with my partner at the Alexanderplatz Christmas markets. The Alexandarplatz Christmas markets are one of the biggest and busiest markets in Berlin. There were so many Christmas trees set up and a huge welcome sign at the entrance. There were 100 market stalls that were shaped like cute little log cabins, selling various goods such as ornate Christmas ornaments, hand crafted jewelry and plenty of food to choose from. In the middle of the square was an ice-rink, where you could skate along to the Christmas music. I was too scared to join in on the fun on the rink because I didn’t want to risk breaking my leg overseas! It was still amazing to witness, and next to the rink was a giant Ferris wheel that overlooked the city centre. The first thing that surprised me was that all the stalls were cash only, they had ATMs on site but if you ever decide to go, make sure you have plenty of euros with you.”
