With a warm cup of mulled wine in hand, we joyfully hopped from one market to another. There were delicious garlic potatoes and plenty of bratwurst available for hungry visitors. If you're looking for something sweet, there were tasty treats like pancakes and nougat, perfect for a three-course meal on the go.

The delightful aromas from the various food stalls, showcasing offerings from different countries, filled the air. There were also many sweet, delicious cakes from different cultures, making it a fantastic place to find quirky, original gifts that are beautifully designed. However, I was surprised to discover that the usual stalls in the Rathaus of Affleck's had been relocated to Piccadilly, which meant we missed one of our favorite parts of the market. It would have been helpful to have some signs in the market area to inform those who might not be aware of the location change or didn’t check the website. Despite this, we had a lovely time, sipping mulled wine, which truly put us in the holiday spirit!
