7Munich Christkindlmarkt
Munich’s Marienplatz transforms into a festive village during the Christmas season, with its Christkindlmarkt at the center of it all. This market stands out for its Bavarian charm, offering everything from hand-carved nativity scenes to ornaments made of straw. The Feuerzangenbowle, a rum-soaked sugarloaf set aflame over a hot bowl of mulled wine, is a must-try drink here. While you’re in Munich, don’t forget to explore the medieval market at Wittelsbacherplatz, which recreates a traditional Christmas experience from centuries past.
