I was stationed in Germany for 3 years and I just loved the Christmas markets! During the week I would hang out at the one in Mannheim and go to the other towns on the weekend. There are so many and they are all unique. So much fun!

[@cooking-the-world]

Oh such lovely memories

[@cscates3598]

“If you don’t like German food…” if you’re at a Christmas Market in Germany and don’t like German food, you’re in the wrong country 🤣🤣There’s no way I’d have any other food. I miss Christmas in Germany.

[@cooking-the-world]

Hahahaha! Love it! I always wondered, why there are so many vendors selling international food. And they are there year after year, so somebody is buying this food;) oh well, people must like different things ;)

[@jimfrodsham7938]

Oh Marta, once again you've taken me down memory lane. The Christmas Market in the Hamburger Dom was a wonderland for me and my cousins in the early '50's, such wonderful sights, scents and taes. We have a German Christmas Market here which my grandchildren love but I know it's a pale shadow of what we had back then. Would you believe not one of them here is authenticily German, they're all franchises and none of them are German.

[@cooking-the-world]

Oh sorry to hear that. But on the other hand I am glad that the grandchildren like it so much. Maybe I should get into organising such events abroad. That would be so much fun!

[@femalism1715]

There is nothing as magical as Germany at Christmas. As a child, (my father was stationed at Baden-Baden) I loved the Black Forest markets...wish there were comparable seasonal traditions in North America!

This sounds nice

[@johnmarquardt1991]

I've been to the one in Nuremberg in the old city - it was wonderful. The rectangular
lebkuchen covered in chocolate .... WOW. I was amazed how the glühwein tasted differently in many of the small towns I visited -- all good. A local Lutheran High School in Concordia, Missouri had it's 3rd Christmas Market this weekend -- I was planning to go -- but was sick.

[@cooking-the-world]

Oh John thats such a shame. Hope you will get better soon

[@myselfalex]

Schones Weinachten to you and your family Marta!

[@timc2346]

Been Waiting for a video on your Christmas Market. We do have winter Markets here inspired after German Markets but warmer to watch your channel. 😉

[@cooking-the-world]

Hahahahaha! Yes, you can watching it in your pyjamas Tim, I see ;)

[@grahamturner5963]

My first experience of German Christmas Markets was in the 60s 😃 Fascinating time for a small kid and still a fan today 😀

[@larrydrouin2497]

[@cooking-the-world]

I am keeping my fingers crossed!

[@marymasiakowski5042]

Someday I would love to visit Germany during the Christmas markets.

[@rdbm81756]

Christmas is a celebration of the birth of Jesus Christ a Christian religious celebration, veering away from this main purpose defeats the purpose of this important event. Pity.

[@TangoWhsky_]

My father was stationed in Germany for 4 years when I was younger. We really enjoyed the Christmas Markets and the German culture in general. We always talk about wanting to live there again!

[@WV591]

how can a country that eates suasages and potatos and drinks beer 90% of the time have so many most beautiful women.

[@AltynaiKabylova-de1lq]

👍🔥🔥

[@mariab509]

Thank you 🙏

[@barbarafreindorf9100]

Love your Christmas markets such a joy with lots of choices to eat favourite food and beautiful things to buy.

[@cooking-the-world]

So true!

[@bighuge1060]

We had one of these markets in Sparta, NJ. I've since moved out of state and I'll miss visiting these.

[@cooking-the-world]

Oh I am sorry to hear that.

[@danielmeyer8517]

Do you know by chance why during the Nazi time Christmas markets were shut down?

[@cooking-the-world]

Yes, because Nazis though that those are pagan winter celebration.

[@elemanjohn8287]

Так интересно

[@georgiaman1926]

This looks and fun and the food looks amazing. This must be the best time of the year to be in Germany.

[@cooking-the-world]

It is one of the best for sure. Although I would find other reasons to come also in spring, summer and autumn;)

[@RussKC]
